Discover the story of the song > The Angry Mob – Kaiser Chiefs

The song is about a group of people (referred to as 'we' or 'the angry mob') who follow each other blindly and believe everything they read in the newspaper without questioning it. They are easily influenced and can be persuaded to like or hate someone or something based on what they read. The lyrics also suggest that individuals in the group may choose to act a certain way just because their friends or peers are doing it. The protagonist warns about the dangers of following the crowd without thinking for oneself.
