Mark Ronson to names his 100 favourite bands for Kaiser Chiefs

As part of their takeover of the Guardian's website, the Leeds band originally asked Ronson, producer of their recent 'Off With Their Heads' album, to compile a list featuring 100 artists, but he chose to leave one place available for a future band.

Ronson says he chose not to compile the list numerically, as that would "falsely bestow some sort of order on it," reports The Guardian.
