    My problem with The Kaiser Chief's new material is that the songs seem to just drag on and don't really have any direction. The first track 'The Factory Gates' and one of the final tracks 'Cannons' are the few bright sparks, I got completely lost in the middle again. Ricky Wilson should just stick to The Voice.

    The lyrics are at best perfunctory, at worst an insult to anyone who isn’t a total nork.

    The result is a band that has found their collective groove.

    After a decade as pop's court jesters, Kaiser Chiefs have finally found their true voice. [May 2014, p.106]
