Albarn thinks Kaiser Chiefs' second album a bit like Blur's fourth

Damon Albarn has compared the Kaiser Chiefs' second album unfavourably to Blur's fourth, 'The Great Escape', saying it sounds empty.

Damon Albarn has compared the Kaiser Chiefs second album to Blur's fourth, 'The Great Escape', and it's not a favourable comparison to make, in Albarn's eyes at least. He says: "I've made two bad records. The first [Blur] record, which is awful, and 'The Great Escape', which was messy. The Kaiser Chiefs' new record sounds a bit like 'The Great Escape' in that it sounds a bit empty. Sometimes records are like that if you try too hard to repeat your success".
