The Kaiser Chiefs have confirmed the October 13 release of their new record, Off With Their Heads. Co-produced by Mark Ronson and Eliot James, it features guest appearances from Lily Allen, Sway, members of New Young Pony Club, and string arranger David Arnold (think the James Bond theme).

New Young Pony Club played a one-off gig at the Euro 2008 headquarters on Monday night (June 23), after lead singer Tahita Bulmer fought through a bout of flu to make the gig.

Members of Bloc Party, The Kills and New Young Pony Club are in the running for the World's Sexiest Vegetarian award 2008.

Unique drawings by The Enemy, Supergrass, Graham Coxon and New Young Pony Club have been put up for sale.

The Enemy, The Wombats, Reverend And The Makers and New Young Pony Club are among acts confirmed to play at the forthcoming Forgotten Valley festival.
