Kaiser Chiefs snub "boring" Bond

Kaiser Chiefs

The Kaiser Chiefs have insisted that they will never write a James Bond theme because they find the 007 films "boring".

The band worked with Bond soundtrack producer David Arnold at the BBC Electric Proms, but admitted that they hate the spy franchise.

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

He added that the band would not be working on any movie soundtracks in the near future, saying: "We were asked to write a soundtrack once. But it was a romcom, 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.”

The Kaiser Chiefs release new single 'Love's Not A Competition' on November 12.
