Kaiser Chiefs´ Bond snub

Kaiser Chiefs snub James Bond

Monday, 29 October 2007

Kaiser Chiefs will never write a James Bond theme, because they hate 007 films.

The 'I Predict a Riot' rockers have no interest in penning a track for the next movie, tentatively titled 'Bond 22', because they think the suave spy is boring.

Drummer and chief songwriter Nick Hodgson said: "We won't be doing any James Bond music. I've never seen a Bond film. Actually, I have seen a couple. They were boring.

"We were asked to write a soundtrack once. But it was for a romantic comedy, it wasn't our thing. We thought it would be interesting, but it wasn't.

"But one day it would be cool for the right sort of film. Not a big fanfare sort of thing. A much more cheerful 'Kes' where the kestrel lives, maybe."

Lead singer Ricky Wilson also revealed his favourite band is his own.

He said: "It's important that your fans enjoy your music and that you enjoy it too.

"I quite like the songs we make. I'm not in a band that don't like their own music. Kaiser Chiefs are my favourite band!"
