'''Yours Truly, Angry Mob''' is the second album by English rock band Kaiser Chiefs. It was released on 23 February 2007 in Belgium and the Netherlands, on 26 February 2007 in the rest of the world and in late March in North America. The album was preceded by the release of lead single "Ruby" on 19 February (see 2007 in British music).[1][2][3] It became the band's first (and to date, only) number one album in the British album charts.
Once again produced by Stephen Street, producer of the band's debut album ''Employment'', ''Yours Truly, Angry Mob'' is lyrically darker and more socially aware than its predecessor, with tracks dealing with street crime, violence, fame, and the inaccuracy of tabloid articles.
The band had earlier revealed to ''NME'' in October 2006 that they had recorded 22 songs and hoped to whittle that number down to 13 or 14 for the final album.[4] Additionally, in July 2006 the band revealed to Gigwise that they'd hoped to have the album released by Valentine's Day 2007.[5]
The album was leaked in its entirety on February 21, 2007.
The album was criticised by Blur frontman Damon Albarn, who likened it to his own record ''The Great Escape''.[2]
All tracks by Ricky Wilson, Andrew White, Simon Rix, Nick Baines, and Nick Hodgson.
