The Kaiser Chiefs are brilliant. When they exploded onto the scene in the mid-00s, you could not deny their infectious Brit-alt rock sound. ‘I Predict a Riot’ and ‘Ruby’ were staples on alt rock radio and the most pleasant earworms one could ask for. Last year, the band released one of the top records of the year — Education, Education, Education & War. Pop-Break’s Saidy Lopez had the pleasure to capture the band in action when they performed at Irving Plaza in NYC.
