Some 20 years after they formed in Leeds, 15 years after they scored a Top 10 UK hit with I Predict a Riot and less than one year after their UK Top Three album, Duck, it seems Kaiser Chiefs have weathered various storms over the past two decades. They are not, then, a critics' choice but rather a people's music act, and one with at least 10 songs that can make a gig pass by with a hum and a whistle. – Tony Clayton Lea
