In the premiere episode of our new show Relentless Ultra Presents Soundchain With Zane Lowe, a series that explores the musical inspirations of seven of today's most influential artists, 48:13 rockers Kasabian walked us through their musical influences.

With a soundchain starting off in their home town of Leicester, visiting 5HQ Records and exploring the Midlands' rave scene, Tom and Serge also cited Michael Jackson, Portishead, DJ Shadow, Cypress Hill and 90s Brit Pop bands like Oasis, Blur and Pulp as artists who have shaped the Kasabian sound.

During the show the band also treated us to stonking live performances of  'eez-eh', 'stevie' and 'bumblebeee' in Camden's Electric Ballroom.

Looking to the future and keeping Kasabian's soundchain moving, we picked fellow Midlands-based psychadelic group Temples who've supported the band on tour a few times. Make sure to check out their track 'Mesmerise' ...

Missed Kasabian on Soundchain? Watch it again Monday July 7 at 10pm on MTV Rocks.

Coming up on Soundchain over the coming weeks: Ed Sheeran, Chase & Status, Nas, Jake Bugg, Biffy Clyro and Queens Of The Stone Age!
