After the hit-or-miss sophomore effort that was 'Yours Truly, Angry Mob' , Kaiser Chiefs bounced back to form with their third studio album 'Off with Their Heads'. Featured on this album was the lead single 'Never Miss a Beat', which included Lily Allen on backing vocals. The song fits quite nicely into the Chiefs post-punk revival sound, rivaling hits such as 'Ruby' and 'I Predict A Riot'. The drums thump along, driving the song with its catchy beat while the bass rumbles in perfect unison. There some really neat guitar work to be found on the song along with fuzzy keyboards which add a sort of sugary charm. But of note are Ricky Wilson's lyrics which feature subtle social commentary but above all are fun to sing along with. So if you are looking for a radio friendly pop-rock song, this is probably it, but be warned, it may just get stuck in your head!
"Televisions on the blink
There's nothing on it
I really want a really big coat
With words on it
What do you want for tea?
I want crisps
Why don't you join the team?
I just did"
There's nothing on it
