Kasabian on state of the music world: 'It's a good time for squares, but people will get bored soon'

'Fire' hitmakers Kasabian have revealed their disappointment at this year's BRIT Awards nominees because most of the acts that have been recognised are 'boring'. 

Speaking to Britain's The Sun newspaper, the band's Serge Pizzorno explained that he believes this is a boring time for music with 'squares' ruling the roost and winning big at awards ceremonies like the BRITs: "It's a good time for squares. We're going through a period where the squares are in charge. There's no surrealists, there's no fantasy in music."

The rocker added that he doesn't think it will stay like this for long because people will eventually grow tired of this lack of excitement:

"The squares are having their day. But I can foresee it coming to an end. There's only so long people will take it before they get bored. There's no danger any more. People aren't offering anything exciting. The squares are winning."

As previously reported, Kasabian confessed that they're glad to not be in the same category at the BRITs as One Direction: "I don't want us to be put in the same Best British Group category as Clean Bandit and One Direction. There's way more politics behind this than people realise. There's some strange names in there. I hope some of those people enjoy their night because it's the only time they'll be there."
