Yours Truly, Angry Mob Regular edition cover (CD and LP) Studio album by Kaiser Chiefs Released 26 February 2007 Recorded Hook End Studio, Berkshire: September - October, 2006 Genre Indie Rock Length 44:19 Label B-Unique Producer Stephen Street Yours Truly, Angry Mob is the second album by English rock band Kaiser Chiefs. It was released on 23 February 2007 in Belgium and the Netherlands, on 26 February 2007 in the rest of the world and in late March in North America. The album was preceded by the release of lead single "Ruby" on 19 February (see 2007 in British music). It became the band's first (and to date, only) number one album in the British album charts. Once again produced by Stephen Street, producer of the band's debut album Employment, Yours Truly, Angry Mob is lyrically darker and more socially aware than its predecessor, with tracks dealing with street crime, violence, fame, and the inaccuracy of tabloid articles. The band had earlier revealed to NME in October 2006 that they had recorded 22 songs and hoped to whittle that number down to 13 or 14 for the final album.[4] Additionally, in July 2006 the band revealed to Gigwise that they'd hoped to have the album released by Valentine's Day 2007. The album was leaked in its entirety on February 21, 2007. The album was criticised by Blur frontman Damon Albarn, who likened it to his own record The Great Escape. Track History: "The Angry Mob" is a song by English indie band Kaiser Chiefs and is the title track to their second album, Yours Truly, Angry Mob. The name "The Angry Mob" is also the name of the band's fanclub and is possibly the inspiration for the band's blog. The song was released in the UK as the third single from Yours Truly, Angry Mob on 20 August 2007. The song discusses the way in which the media encourage knee-jerk reactionary thinking, and the way society at large keeps people under control via the tabloids and 24-hour drinking culture. The video was first shown at 23:00 on 23 July on Channel 4. It depicts the working-class hen-night culture and culminates in two separate hen parties coming together in a "gang war" style fight after they have been banned from a high-class restaurant 'NOBLESSE' at the request of the upper middle-class diners. The diners gather at the window to enjoy the spectacle of the two groups that have turned on each other, however the hens then decide to unite to confront the diners instead. The video was directed by W.I.Z. The single will come with special artwork created by Dandy/Beano artist Nigel Parkinson, and features caricatures of the band with various Beano characters. People can pre-order a special 7" single containing an exclusive Beano poster. Despite only reaching #22 in the charts, it has received significant airplay on contemporary radio stations. Lyrics: I can prove anything I'll make you admit again and again I can prove anything The way that it's read again and again And its only cos you came here with your brothers too If you came here on your own you'd be dead Its only cos you follow what the others do Its no excuse to say your easily lead You can choose anything You choose to lose again and again You could do anything Why should you do anything again And its only cos you came here with your brothers too If you came here on your own you'd be dead Winding yourself up until your turning blue Repeating everything that you've read And here we go with the letter Well can you fix it for me Cos we need entertainment To keep us all off the streets So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed You can try anything And no-one would know apart from you and me You can stop anything It's starts with just one and turns to two then three Its only cos you came here with your brothers too If you came here on your own you'd be dead Raise a glass or two You raise a fist or two Get a shopping basket wrapped round your head So here we go with the letter Oh can you fix it for me 24 hour drinking To keep us all off the streets So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed We are the angry mob We read the papers everyday day We like who like We hate who we hate But we're also easily swayed
