Yours Truly, Angry Mob

Product Information

On 4 August 2008, the band confirmed the name of their third album as Off with Their Heads. It was released on 20 October 2008. The first single " Never Miss a Beat" was released on 6 October 2008. [31] The Kaiser Chiefs also have an emergent swagger on their second album, perhaps a product of the success of their debut. In the closer Retirement is a triumphant call to arms to quit your day job, which the Kaiser Chiefs pretty much could do!), while My Kind of Guy is playfully and viciously self-deprecating. But I wonder if the album could have benefited from a tighter concept developed around The Angry Mob, with it’s humungous football terrace outro and critique of collectivism, especially the type driven by tabloids and groupthink. But the concept only pops up in disconnected segments here and there throughout the album. If you came here on your own you’d be dead/You raise a glass until you raise a fist or two/And get a shopping basket wrapped around your head” – ‘We Are The Angry Mob’. Ha ha! Brilliant! Such dry, acerbic humour this time, what a classic comedic twist to their… “Everything is going down the pan/There’s not much to believe in/And everything will always stay the same” – ‘Everything Is Average Nowadays’.

It depicts the working-class hen-night culture and culminates in two separate hen parties coming together in a "gang war" style fight after they have been banned from a high-class restaurant 'NOBLESSE' at the request of the upper middle-class diners. The diners gather at the window to enjoy the spectacle of the two groups that have turned on each other, however the hens then decide to unite to confront the diners instead. The video was directed by W.I.Z. Manager James Sandom was tipped off about the band by Drowned in Sound founder Sean Adams, who persuaded him to go and see them live. Sandom said: "I went to see a couple of shows and you were just bombarded by a series of potential hit singles." Soon after Sandom became their manager, Kaiser Chiefs signed to B-Unique Records. Atlantic Records had also made an offer for the band.

So Yours Truly, Angry Mob ends up a bit like those new-fangled surgical stitches which melt away into your flesh when their work is done, only in reverse. It starts out inchoate and hard to put your finger on, then coalesces into something wiry and unshakable. a b Corner, Lewis (10 December 2013).
