Kaiser Chief says music scene is shit

Kaiser Chiefs drummer Nick Hodgson tells NME there is too much poor guitar music around and suggests The Twang as a fresh hope.

Kaiser Chief Nick Hodgson says he thinks there are a lot of crap guitar bands around at the moment. He's probably not wrong. But to be fair, there are probably always a lot of crap guitar bands around.

Anyway, here's what he said to NME: "There's so much shit in guitar music at the moment. You imagine an A&R man seeing this bandwagon, jumping on it and signing any old shit with a guitar around its neck. I was watching this film about The Ramones. It got me thinking how everything was so average nowadays. Arctic Monkeys were the last of the best and we need something else now to get us out of it. Maybe it's The Twang."
