"Cutt Off" is the fourth single from Kasabian's eponymous album. It is Kasabian's second-highest UK Singles Chart entry at number eight.[2] The single version was a re-working of the album version, featuring a new drum track, a different mix and slightly changed lyrics. The maxi CD features Kasabian's Radio 1 Live Lounge versions of their own "Processed Beats" and a cover of "Out of Space" by The Prodigy.[3] The 10-inch vinyl version came in a poster bag, and featured the exclusive tracks "Pan Am Slit Scam" and a Mad Action remix of "Cutt Off".[3]

Music video[edit]

The official music video depicts people in a New York strete running from an unseen threat, which is revealed to be a giant flying shark, however the band are unfazed by it, with the shark flying around the members several times.
