New Kaiser Chiefs Video - "Never Miss A Beat"

thumbnail icon: New Kaiser Chiefs Video - "Never Miss A Beat"

In "Never Miss A Beat" we're we're told "it's cool to know nothing." Except how to coordinate your outfits for properly dividing into flashy masked and mimed gangs. The video for the Kaiser Chiefs' Mark Ronson-produced anthem finds the youths of today dressed like birds, box heads, and even Steve Erkel, scaring the local constable, making the locals close shop early, and encouraging KC to rock out in the midst of it. It comes with a very Michael Jackson-esque ending. Not in the creepy pajama and wheelchair sense.

Not as stressful as this.

The "Never Miss A Beat Single" arrives 10/6. Off With Their Heads is out 10/13 via B-Unique.

"What if all the gangs in West Side Story were replaced with kids in creepy costumes like in The Wicker Man!"
