  Linda Kasabian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linda Kasabian was the star witness in the Tate-LaBianca murders, for which Charles Manson and members of his "family" were convicted.
Kasabian was directed by Manson to gather a knife, a change of clothing and her driver's license, then to drive three other members of the Manson Family (Charles "Tex" Watson, Susan Atkins and Patricia Krenwinkel) to the Tate residence.
Kasabian says in her testimony, "There was a man just coming out of the door and he had blood all over his face and he was standing by a post, and we looked into each other's eyes for a minute, and I said, 'Oh, God, I am so sorry.

This humble reviewer may be misconstruing the intent of "kasabian", art school has versed me in many "divergent" and "creative" concepts to effect social and artistic change, but aligning yourself and your work with a person who aided the escape of psychopaths from the crime scene does not bode well to say the least.
The Kasabian Movement and Manifesto are almost more layered in agenda than their music is layered with those synthesized and electronic tones they so delicately and expertly employ on this album.
Kasabian is a band whose passion comes with agenda and lost in the mix is their excellent music.

 Kasabian - self-titled (Album Review)
Linda Kasabian was the star witness for the U.S. Government at Charles Manson’s murder trial.
Fortunately, the Britpop band adopting Kasabian as its moniker is not a tribute to Manson or his turncoat chauffeur.
Even more annoying is the fact that Kasabian buried a "hidden track" after a good bit of silence on the final cut, which is without a doubt the worst manner in which to hide a song and conclude an outing.

 The Charles Manson Trial: Other Key Figures

 Kasabian Will Release Album March 8th Via RCA
The members of Kasabian all grew up in Leicester, a city hidden in a sprawl of suburbs, the kind of place where you listen to music, watch football, get drunk and wander the streets at night singing, because there's nothing else to do.
The word "kasabian" also turned out to be Armenian for the word "butcher," appropriate for a band who work with a cut-and-paste collage of sound, but also for a gang with ambitions to cut the pap out of pop.

Kasabian moved into a remote farmhouse in Rutland to record their debut album, benefiting from its isolation but also managing to sneak in a few parties while they were there.
Kasabian's self-titled album was released last September to widespread critical acclaim, its indie dance stance drawing comparisons to The Stone Roses, Primal Scream and The Happy Mondays.
Regarding it as "both a fiery assertion of rock 'n' roll ethics and proof that a siege mentality is alive and well in the badlands of Rutland Water", the NME's praise was typical of the album's reception.

Be that as it may, Kasabian are not a strange cult or blind devotees to a mass murderer's crusade.
As Kasabian plays, there are moments where dancing with your arms reaching for the ceiling are apropos, while the more subdued passages are akin to an extended gaze at the morphing orbs inside a lava lamp.
If there's any fault to be found with Kasabian, other than their riding on the coattails of others, it's the inclusion of a couple of filler tracks that don't have the same kinetic energy as most of the album.

 Kasabian: Kasabian - PopMatters Music Review
Kasabian's self-titled debut possesses great swagger and numerous irresistible riffs, presenting itself with both barrels loaded to blast you with its punchy power pop.
Previously I'd imagined Kasabian's bassist paying ardent attention to "The Collected Works of Mani", but instead found two different players performing duties on the album (significantly, The Stone Roses and Primal Scream, the two most obvious influences on Kasabian, share Mani on bass as their main common denominator).
One suspects Kasabian seek an Oasis-like level of success (and why not?), but if so, it's to be hoped that their music does the talking, and in a way it seldom did for those particular of their idols.
