Description
To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of their debut album Employment (usually commemorated with the gift of china), Kaiser Chiefs are making three new expanded China Anniversary formats available. This 2LP set features 15 additional tracks, including a selection of B-Sides and CD single bonus tracks, plus two previously unreleased songs, exclusive to this format. The original album has been remastered at Abbey Road Studios, and the bonus material was curated by the band from their own archive.
Originally released in March 2005, Employment peaked on the UK album chart at No. 2, and has since spent more than 17 months on the Top 40, selling more than 2.1 million copies in the process, and being certified 7 x Platinum status by the British Phonographic Industry. Similarly successful across Europe, the albums longevity was aided by the hits singles Oh My God, I Predict A Riot, Everyday I Love You Less And Less and Modern Way, and a series of triumphant performances that established Kaiser Chiefs as a must see live act, building a loyal fanbase that stays with them today.
Formed in Leeds in 2000, Kaiser Chiefs are one of the most exciting and consistently successful bands of their generation. Fronted by the charismatic Ricky Wilson, with Simon Rix on bass, Andrew Whitey White on guitar, Nick Peanut Baines on keyboards and drummer Vijay Mistry, the band have released eight original studio albums (two of those UK No. 1), had nine Top 40 singles, including the No. 1 Ruby, received three Brit Awards, an Ivor Novello Album of the Year award for Employment, toured with U2, Foo Fighters and Green Day and sold more than eight million albums.
2LP black vinyl pressing.
