[57] Other appearances [ edit ] This effect intensifies over a whole album. So Yours Truly, Angry Mob ends up a bit like those new-fangled surgical stitches which melt away into your flesh when their work is done, only in reverse. It starts out inchoate and hard to put your finger on, then coalesces into something wiry and unshakable.And therein lies a problem with Yours Truly, Angry Mob. Every song on Employment felt worthy, whereas Yours Truly, Angry Mob offers a fair share of Kaiser Chief cookie-cutters. Heat Dies Down, Thank You Very Much, Learnt My Lesson Well (fun lyrics aside) are all mildly pleasant but pedestrian to the extent that they rob the band of their personality. Cut these three out and you’d have a fairly commendable album, which is further strengthened by some admirable departures from the Kaiser Chief formula. Love’s Not A Competition (But I’m Winning) musically recalls The Smiths, even if the vocal melody is a bit disjointed, while Try Your Best is a tad meandering, but an applaudable change of pace. Their UK hit singles include 2004 and 2005 number 9 hit " I Predict a Riot", 2007 UK number 1 hit " Ruby", which has sold over 461,000 copies, [10] from their platinum album Yours Truly, Angry Mob plus a further two Top 20 singles in 2007 with " The Angry Mob" and " Everything Is Average Nowadays". Their singles " Ruby", " I Predict a Riot", " Everyday I Love You Less and Less", " Never Miss a Beat" and " Oh My God" had sold a combined total of 1.1 million up to August 2012.
