A year typically commemorated with china, Kaiser Chiefs marked 20 years of their iconic debut album Employment with three brand new expanded ‘China Anniversary’ formats in July. Remastered at Abbey Road Studios, the bonus material across the release was curated by the band from their own archive.
Originally released in March 2005, the album landed to wide-spread acclaim and has gone on to become one of the most successful debut albums from a UK band. Peaking at No. 2 on the UK album chart, the record has since spent more than 17 months on the Official Top 40 chart, selling more than 2.1 million copies in the process, and being certified 7 x Platinum status by the British Phonographic Industry. Featuring a host of hit singles including ‘Oh My God’, ‘I Predict A Riot’, ‘Everyday I Love You Less And Less’ and ‘Modern Way’, the album catapulted the band into the music world’s stratosphere, setting them onto the path of arena mainstays and festival headline status across the world.
