If you like Bloc Party this is the band for you. I would not go to the show.

They don't sound anything like Bloc Party, but thanks for playing.

I concur… Anyone want to call for an end in the debate?

I have the Bloc Party and the Kaiser Chiefs CDs. The latter is on my player a lot more often. Vocals have a bit of Brian Eno in them, that early new wave sound that is just "happy". This is music for the spring and summer and a lot of fun. So I recommend the album.

Bloc Party, feh.

this months postal service list hasn't arrived at chez kozmo yet either… but it was a at the tuesday kraftwerk show… i expect the whine level to reach 11 on tuesday… so seek out the appropriate information, preferrable at a fine record store or at the club before then.

Bloc Party's is the better album but 'I Predict a Riot' is just one of those magic songs…..

Agreed both albums are B- efforts with one or two brilliant moments which will undoubtly be compiled to death in the UK for years to come…

I agree…The Bloc Party album is solid and a good listen all the way through. I like it more and more over time. The Kaiser Chiefs have a couple great songs – paticularly "I Predict a Riot" – but the album is really uneven, with some really subpar songs in the mix. Reminds me of Jet, in the way that a few fast songs are standouts, but the rest is filler or really bad ballads.

Just my opinion. Also, I know Bloc Party puts on a good show. I haven't seen K.C.
