Kaiser Chiefs return with new single, album, live date

Leeds band Kaiser Chiefs have released a new single online which is available to download now for 99 of your British pennies, or nothing if you pre-order the album on certain websites. You can hear their new single here.



The single, the first cut from their upcoming sixth album, is certainly a change in direction for the band. Produced by Brian Higgins, known for his work for Girls Aloud and Xenomania the single is certainly dancier than we've ever heard from the band. Here at KBPS we were initially unsure about it but after a few days of listens it's certainly growing on us. It perhaps lack the indie flavour of their big singles and 2014's 'Education, Education, Education and War' album (our favourite of their LPs) but the catchiness is still there, but it could prove quite divisive in terms of sound, sounding more David Guetta than Kaiser Chiefs.

The band's sixth album 'Stay Together' is due out on Friday 7th October and doesn't feature last year's non-album release 'Falling Awake'.

The expected track listing is:

  • We Stay Together
  • Hole In My Soul
  • Parachute
  • Good Clean Fun
  • Why Do You Do It To Me?
  • Indoor Firework
  • Press Rewind
  • Happen In A Heartbeat
  • High Society
  • Sunday Morning
  • Still Waiting

The band are also performing live in July at the London Palladium and you can pre-order the album now in various flavours from their website.
