Es wird ernst: Kaiser Chiefs haben in nur sechs Wochen schon 22 Stücke aufgenommen, von denen 13 bis 14 den noch unbetitelten Nachfolger von "Employment" bilden werden. Die Band schäumt vor Motivation, Drummer Nick Hodgson:"We are full of inspiration. It's a big world out there. There's a lot of things to draw upon. Just like that album was written about what was happening then, this one's written about what's happening now." Über den neuen Track "Heat Dies Down":"Last Christmas we went to this big party and it was weird because it was the first time we'd been back in Leeds. Loads of attention was being thrown upon us, especially our singer Ricky couldn't really operate in a normal way. There were loads of girls and boys going up to him saying 'Oh! I saw you here/ there'. I think you're really good.' Blah, blah. So when the heat dies down, we'll be back in town." Weiter Songtitel lauten "Highroyds", "Angry Mob", "Try Your Best", "Everything Is Average Nowadays", "Love's Not A Competition (But I'm Winning)". Übrigens würden sie auch gerne in den USA mehr verkaufen und sie verlassen sich da auf den "Led Zeppelin-Faktor":"We were looking at some sales figures of Led Zeppelin. The first one did 8 million in the US alone. The fourth? 23 million! So we're like 'Yeah! It'd be great to do that, wouldn't it? It'd be great to play massive gigs in America. Hold on a minute! We've got to sell a hundred million records. If we keep making 'em and you keep buying 'em then we'll get there."
