Kaiser Chiefs announce new album, 'Kaiser Chiefs' Easy Eighth Album' • News • DIY Magazine

As they approach the milestone of two decades since the release of their debut album (2005’s ‘Employment’), Kaiser Chiefs are back with news of their eighth: the appropriately named ‘Kaiser Chiefs’ Easy Eighth Album’. Due out on 1st March 2024, the record is championed by the band’s Nile Rodgers co-written new single, ‘Feeling Alright’.

Speaking about the track, frontman Ricky Wilson has shared: “On the first day with Nile Rogers, he said ‘what have you got?’ We searched through some jams we had and this was a song that stood out to him. The band loved playing it round and round, and it must be fun to play but we never really knew where it would find a home. Nile turned out to be the best estate agent and found it a home almost immediately. He also brought in Amir [Amor], who turned out to be our housemate for the entire record. A good place to start!”
