The second single, "bumblebeee", was released on 3 August 2014. The video, directed by Alex Courtes,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=bumblebeee - Kasabian )〕 was released in late July. ''48:13'' represents a return to the hip-hop influenced sound of their debut album combined with the space-rock and neo-psychedelic sound of their more recent releases. ''48:13'' is notable for being the bands only album in which Pizzorno's lead vocal duties outweigh that of front-man Tom Meighan with 5 tracks being sung by Pizzorno, 4 sung by Meighan and 3 tracks which feature both on lead vocals. ==Background== On 13 November 2013, Kasabian posted a teaser video on their official YouTube channel, announcing that the band's guitarist Sergio Pizzorno had been in the studio for the previous six months working on material for the new record. In an interview with ''QRO'' magazine, the band also revealed that the album would be produced by Pizzorno, who also co-produced their 2011 album ''Velociraptor!''.〔 On 28 April 2014, Pizzorno said in a statement announcing the release of ''48:13'', "I felt that we had the confidence to be more direct, more honest with this album. I started to strip away layers rather than to just keep adding." Kasabian vocalist Tom Meighan added, "Less is more, you know? It's direct. It is what it is. Just listen to it. We've had the confidence to lay ourselves bare. Serge has stripped it right back. It's unbelievable."〔〔 Kasabian have listed Kanye West, Joe Strummer Nirvana, Death Grips, Led Zeppelin, Rage Against the Machine and Beastie Boys as influences for the album. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「48:13」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
