Kaiser Chiefs
Everything Is Average Nowadays
Single Review

Everything is average nowadays? You're spot on there Ricky. Especially if you still exist in a mid-90s Britpop time warp. It's all here: the Kaiser Chiefs in all their glory. This is the second single off the second album and they're still belting out witty sing along 3-minute pop songs. This sounds exactly how you'd expect it to sound (minus the "nananana" and the "woooooaaaaaaahhhhhhh" before the chorus), although there is a slight variation and experimentation with the vocals. Whether that's a good or a bad thing is up to you really. I wouldn't have thought that this will attract any new fans, or put off any existing ones which, in their eyes at least, can be no bad thing.
