Anyone listen to them ? Caught a performance on the HD Palladia channel several days back. Big outdoor concerts there in England going on for a long time. This performance is from Glastonbury 2007 I think..the 2005 footage is better but check it out.

Great band! Always felt a little sorry for them at Live 8 in Philadelphia when the crowd had no idea who they were (they were probably hoping for Maroon 5 or some crap like that) and the Kaiser Chiefs made the most of their moment to tepid applause. Shame on you, Philadelphia!

That is a shame at Live 8,however,if they played where I live the Hicks would consider it some kinda gourmet music cause it's not Kenny Chesney.

They don't have a lot of depth IMHO, but songs off their last two albums have made my year-end lists. Fun enough stuff.

Seen them a couple of times and also met the guys. They are from my Wifes hometown - a suburb of Leeds.

Freakin awsome- one of my fave bands. Ricky is a madman on stage - never a dull moment. One day he WILL fall off of something and hurt himself ;-)

yeah that's a gem. If you havn't actually had a chance to listen to all 3 albums - do yourself a favour. They may take a couple of listens but the bulk of the songs hold appeal (well, they do for me anyway - which is rare for me.. there are few non-compilation albums I can listen to all songs from. I must have Attention Deficit Disord.. OHH look! an M&M!)
