The Kaiser Chiefs have asked their fans to help them write a scrapbook detailing their rise to fame.

The book, entitled A Record of Employment, is set for release in April this year and will feature stories and snippets telling the tale of their swift success.

Posting on their official website the band have asked their fans to help with the writing of the book, however, asking them to contribute "personal Kaiser Chief highlights of the last 18 months" to their official message board.

The message adds, "We'll contact anyone we need to talk to in more detail."

The band described the book as "(not) any kind of biography...This is just about capturing the last year and a half from our perspectives".
