Kasabian have said they're “not arsed” about trying to crack America after their latest album bombed over there.

The band's wishy-washy third album 'West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum' entered at the lowly position of 98 on the billboard chart.

This, coupled with the fact the band are to lazy to tour the breadth of the States, is enough to put Tom Meighan off.

"I'm not arsed about it. The record went straight to Number 98, which is shit. No one but Coldplay and U2 are breaking America.

"To break America, you have to tour, and that takes a lot of time," he told The Sun.
