Kasabian - Vlad The Impaler from Edinburgh



West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum is the third studio album by British indie rock band Kasabian, which was released on 5 June 2009. The album was nominated for the 2009 Mercury Prize. In October 2009, it was voted the best album of the year by Q Magazine.
The West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum was a group of mental institutions built in West Yorkshire, England in the 1880s. The album cover depicts the band "getting dressed up for a party at the asylum, looking in the mirror at the costumes". Inspiration for such cover originated from the artwork of Amon Düül II's album Made in Germany.
The video shown below is "Vlad the Impaler" the eighth song of Kasabian's album. The lyric "Joker, meet you on the other side" is a tribute to the late Dark Knight actor Heath Ledger. Often when performed live Tom Meighan changes this line to "Heath Ledger, meet you on the other side." [wikipedia]
