KAISER CHIEFS DENY RONSON PUBLICITY STUNT

British rockers KAISER CHIEFS have denied using superproducer MARK RONSON in a bid to boost their profile.
The I Predict A Riot hitmakers made the unusual choice of hiring the Grammy-winner to work on their latest album, Off With Their Heads. And the move promoted speculation that the band were seeking to use Ronson's international fame as a publicity stunt.
But frontman Ricky Wilson insists the group decided on working with Ronson because he was the only producer to ask them.
Wilson says, "Mark asked to do the album, you know? He was the only person who did, so because he asked, he got the job.
"We realised it was bound to be of interest to people, but we didn't do it as some PR stunt.
"If there's a guy who you get on with, he likes going to the pub and he's winning Grammys for records he's made plus he's asking you if he can produce your next record, you'd be daft not to take him up on his offer."
