Kasier Chiefs have vehemently denied that they have been dropped by their label despite reports to the contrary.

The News of the World reported on Sunday (May 17) that the band's contract with their label B-Unique had been ended.

A spokesman for the band told NME: "The band has two records left to run on an existing contract. Kaiser Chiefs will take their first break in six years at the end of the summer.

“As with many successful artists, the band is considering creative options to improve the way their music reaches people ahead of their forth album."
