Hi – you wait ages for one video then two come along at the same (almost) time…
Here’s a video for our new mix of Beautiful & Useless. You can get that new mix here from 1st April (uh-oh) and you can get the whole album for not very much RIGHT NOW – see the right hand panel on this site or go to “Buy” page…we’ve update the links to the cheapest places you can get them…
Here it is! The official video for Lament…the first single from the Album “Appetite for Chivalry” (which you can buy below on limited run before it hits the shops in November).
We recorded it live at Hyde Park Picture House in Leeds, an Edwardian Cinema. Featured in the video are a bunch of other musicians we got in to make the recording an interesting thing with new parts and epic dynamics and what not. We’d be honoured if you shared the video with others…
Hey, check out our new player at the bottom of the page! Found this cute little soundcloud thing by basically mining codes on other websites. Dork Power!
I’ve put a track you might have heard live on there for first listen…here is the extended outro we do live, if you’re wondering how to dance to it…
Jeez, that Marcus Collins cover of 7 nation army? Surely the worst thing created since chemical warfare? Anyway, on tour our friend Pearl was taking pictures of Kaiser Chiefs and we asked her on stage on the last gig in Plymouth…here are the results!
See more of Pearl’s photos HERE – they are ace.
A few people filmed parts of our set too…this one below is pretty good, a bit shaky at first but levels out…
Hey,
Thisisfakediy.co.uk have premièred our new video HERE. Nice!
We’re back in Norich this weekend, playing the epic studios which is where the Wright Stuff is filmed I’m told. Pretty surreal, but apparently it’s a venue too…should be interesting. Get tickets HERE for a mere £5. And check out the all sorted twitter account for many a deal/free ticket or such like…you can catch up with them HERE.
BAD NEWS!
The London gig 19th October at Death Disco (Notting Hill Arts Club) is not happening! There was some kind of awful mix-up which meant we were omitted from the lineup. We’re suitably disturbed by this incident and hope to book a replacement gig in the big smoke. Sorry to anyone planning to come, fortunately it was free entry so no ticket returns issues…
GOOD NEWS!!!
We got a video for our b-side done by our good buddie Steven Carter…see it below!
So hopefully you’ve seen our video (post below)…and if you have and have re-posted the link to your facebook status or twitter or web page or whatever then Thanks! If you haven’t yet done that…please do!
Some people may be wondering how it was all done, so now it is time to show how the rabbit got in the hat, to let the cat out the bag, to give the dog a bone. That last household pet related phrase didn’t work but never mind…
One of the Directors (Danny) has put up a blog with a video of the making of the video…this may explain why Lee had such a small part, it wasn’t because he was lazy…it was far from it, he in fact had a pivotal role and did all the intensive training too…
Anyway, over to Danny…
Well, we’ve been really excited about this for a long while now…here’s the new video for our Single “No Friend of Mine”
I don’t want to say too much about how it was made just yet, but it involved 3 months training 5 days a week, full on ‘method acting’ I suppose. It’s filmed by Grizzly Bros. who are Danny North and Tim Blackwell. Hope you like it.
Worth mentioning we got some amazing support in making this video from York Boxing Club. So huge thanks to everyone there especially Lewis Gell and Pat. Check them out at www.yorkboxingclub.co.uk
