Kasabian eyeing Underdog

From the album, West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum.

"West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum was a mental institution built in the 1800's in West Yorkshire, England and housed the "mentally-poor". It was later changed to the High Royds Psychiatric Hospital and was then shut down back in 2003." [strangeglue]

Could have been another relatively simply performance video except for one thing, the shots of the crowds with their hands in the air. Seeing that made everything seem epic, and it didn't hurt that the tune has a sixties vibe to it, bringing back memories of the glory days of rock and roll.
