Kasabian have cleared up the confusion surrounding their headlining Glastonbury performance, when random words were projected on the big screen behind them.

Talking to MTV, frontman Tom Meighan said that they were 'in jokes' between him and guitarist Serge Pizzorno.

Serge continued: "It's not complicated or cryptic in any way... There's certain people that will recognise the words from growing up and go, 'love that word.' But it can't be cool. There's a prerequisite - if they're cool they're out."

Pizzorno went on to say that the words, which included; 'cordial', 'voucher' and 'canister', related to the band in some way: "Wouldn't it be amazing if you put just one word... but the word has to relate to us growing up and things that we'd find funny."

He also joked that they were used, at the very least, to make use of the huge screens behind them for something other than "psychedelic butterflies".
