Biography

Sometimes you have to change everything, retool everything, rethink everything in order to move in the right direction. The Kooks’ Luke Pritchard knows this, in fact he positively delights in it. His band’s new album – their third, always a crucial moment – has always had one great goal. To reinvent the band from the ground up. Rather wonderfully, they’ve done it.

Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

On their debut album Inside In/Inside Out, Brighton band The Kooks demonstrate a real potential for greatness. That's because this young band have two crucial things going for them: a wealth of ideas and an awareness of their place in their musical lineage. Which is why it's probably so appropriate that Inside In/Inside Out was recorded at The Kinks' Ray Davies' own studio--Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard, like Davies, seems to have a knack for churning out catchy guitar-pop nuggets. So, after the brief and mellow intro of "Seaside", the album really kicks in to grab the listener by the ears, with each song better than the previous. Sofa Song" is a strumming, singalong bounce, but "Eddie's Gun" is a rough-around-the-edges jangly rocker, and "Ooh La" is a mellow and melodic stroll, all building up to the downright funky tracks like "Matchbox" and "Naive". nd so it continues, through 14 songs, propelled by Pritchard's hiccupping vocal delivery and Hugh Harris's rather excellent guitar playing. The Kooks had a lot of hype prior to the release of Inside In/Inside Out; rather impressively, they've more than managed to live up to it. --Ted Kord

Format:Audio CD
This CD includes songs taken from two live acoustic shows (one at Abbey Road and one in Osaka, Japan).

I am a massive Kooks fan and it was great to listen to the songs from their album "Inside In Inside Out" acoustically, recorded live.

The above amazon track listing is not correct, but the CD does feature most of the songs listed, plus a brilliant version of "California".

There is even a bit of commentary between songs from Luke Pritchard, as he talks to the audience.

A Strong Debut 15 Mar 2006
Format:Audio CD
This album is bursting with energy. It takes the excited, almost child-like glee and presence of pop-rock with the sound of great indie. What you get is music that sound great, even on repeat, and a band that is also highly likeable. They sound like the kind of people you would want to meet in a pub and have a light-hearted chat with. This album features some great songs ("Sofa Song" stands out, as well as "Eddie's Gun") and I would recommend it to anyone. It seems suitable for any mood or occasion. With that glowing praise I still can't give it 5 stars as that 5th star is reserved for albums of legendary status. This album is very good, buy it now and let it all go.

The Kooks Are Out. 6 May 2006
Format:Audio CD
I first heard The Kooks supporting Weezer in Brixton, August 05 I believe. They were unknown to mostly the whole audience, but this didn't seem to faze them as they staggered round the stage brimming with life, Luke in perfect rock star pose like he was famous already. On first glance, you knew they were cool and you knew they were good.

I was delighted to find 'Inside..' in the charts less than a year later, and have been following them since I heard of their rise to stardom.

The album doesn't disappoint. The magical thing about it is the way it seems to break away from the radio friendly Pop culture that Indie Rock has somehow blended into with the help of bands like Babyshambles and We Are Scientists and breathes individuality and originality into modern day music, temporarily shadowing the bland sound of commercialism.

Standout tracks include tracks 1, 4, 6-9 and 11

'Seaside' is a short introduction, a mellow acoustic number that's echoed towards the end of the album. 'Eddie's Gun' is a major contender for this year's summer anthem with its infectious melody and Luke's wonderful voice creating a surge of shivers and smiles. 'She Moves..' is a personal favourite, a light, uplifting track with fantastic lyrics and a pretty chord pattern. 'Nieve', the new single, is a brilliant track if not a little over-killed on the radio. Nevertheless, a catchy sing-a-long chorus and a nice rhythm to nod your indie head to, similar to the previous track 'Matchbox'. 'If Only' is a full-out dirty rock n roll tune, a hot-headed track crammed to bursting point with attitude, dance and raw vocals.

Although this album truly is a masterpiece of the modern day, the last few tracks start to lack the pace, immediacy and spontaneity of the tracks listed above. Don't be fooled, the tracks not mentioned before 'If Only' are good, but not standout.

A superb act that I hope will go from strength to strength. Believe the hype.
