“This British phenomenon’s energetic pop-rock tunes are eminently listenable and sometimes downright joyous,” said US music site Spin, of the Brighton-based indie act.

The opinion from the British press is more biting with the Independent writing: “The Kooks may well be arrogant, humourless and easily dislikeable on any number of levels, but when was that ever a hindrance to success in rock ‘n’ roll?”

“The most important thing is that when called upon to walk the walk as well as talk the talk, they deliver the goods.”

Which is one way of saying that The Kooks are a band with rock-caricature swagger!

In three years, they have released two successful albums – Inside In, Inside Out and Konk – proving that no one can resist a simple jingle-jangle tune with a rousing sing-along chorus.
