Kaiser Chiefs have admitted that they're worried about the future of guitar bands as they believe new bands' chances of securing a "viable career" have plummeted.
Speaking to Bang Showbiz, singer Ricky Wilson said that though he acknowledged guitar bands would always be there, he was unsure if they'd enjoy too much success.
He said: "Necessity is the mother of invention and there will always be music. Whether it will be a viable career for five guys with guitars I'm not sure at the moment but you know, they'll be there in a garage somewhere."
Bassist Simon Rix added that he believed that the demise of record companies has been very damaging for new bands as they needed support early on in their careers.
