“After a few listens people will understand why it’s first because it blows the doors off,” he said. “I wanted it to have a Beastie Boys and Clash feel.”

A video for the song, featuring ‘The Mighty Boosh’‘s Noel Fielding and directed by Arctic Monkeys associate Richard Ayoade, also premieres on the site on March 31.

Both the download and the video will be available on Kasabian.co.uk at 7:30pm (GMT) on March 31. The download of ‘Vlad The Impaler’ is available for free until midnight on April 3.

Kasabian‘s first physical single release from ‘West Rider Pauper Lunatic Asylum’ will be ‘Fire’, out on June 1. The album itself is released on June 8.
