Kasabian have booted out a founding member of the band.
The move has been confirmed via their official website, in a statement that reads:
"Karloff and the band experienced certain creative and artistic differences during the writing and recording of their second album. These irreconcilable and diverging approaches resulted in the band asking Karloff to leave the group. Karloff will pursue a musical career elsewhere."
The band's second album, 'Empire' is released on September 4th.
