"Melodic tunes that frankly just hit the spot..." Having steadily gained attention while blitzing the summer festival circuit last year and occupying some standout opening slots for The Kaiser Chiefs and The Kooks it is quite obvious to see that Camden four-piece Tribes are boasting quite a lot of potential. The recent release their debut album Baby saw them wholeheartedly realise it. There's something of a nineties Britpop feel to Tribes and that's absolutely no criticism; they have a strong, guitar-based indie flag to fly with a troop of melodic tunes that [...]

It's amazing how often things that shouldn't work together do. For example, as a true Australian, I love Vegemite and cheese— don't try this at home, folks. This love, however, is intellectually counterintuitive; Vegemite should not be loved in conjunction with anything (to be honest, the thought of Vegemite by itself is, in a word, "vomitous"). On the other hand, unlike the erstwhile Vegemite, Western Australian vocalists Scarlett Stevens of The Flairz and Jordi Davieson of The Real Life Animators have never been considered vomitous. Together, fronting their unholy musical lovechild San Cisco, these two remarkable vocalists are even less [...]
I'm really digging the vintage look and feel of The Kooks' new video for "Rosie" from their album, Junk of the Heart. There's quite a bit of superimposition going on in... Read the rest on Speakerboxxx.com
The Kook's latest offering from their "Junk of the Heart" album which was released in 2011 and produced by Tony Hoffer. "Rosie" features some trippy psychadelic visuals and some scantily clad ladies. The Kooks - Rosie on MUZU .
O The Kooks acaba de lançar um novo clipe (acima). Dessa vez, a faixa escolhida é Rosie , de Junk Of The Heart , último álbum dos britânicos. Com a suposta personagem "Rosie" em destaque, a banda quebra a imagem de "bonitinha" abusando de efeitos um tanto quanto bregas (goste você ou não) ao longo do vídeo. Lembrando que o Kooks tem tudo para voltar ao Brasil esse ano . Será que agora vai?

You'd be surprised what a couple good tracks can do for a girl. Just the right song can make the heart skip beat.

Plus, you'll hit her emotional soft spot and she'll be all gooey-eyed and lovey-dovey for you. What better time than now to ignite the fires and get steamy with your honey? This holiday season I'm going to let you in on Metrjolt's secrets to help you with song selection to [...]

The L.A. boys get ready for some globetrotting.

A year or two ago, if you were telling me that The Kooks and Foster the People were sharing a the stage, I would never have guessed that The Kooks would be the ones being billed as the "special guest." But things change, I support, and with the size of some of the venues on this upcoming tour, The Kooks certainly can't complain. The full schedule with two New York City dates is below. The Kooks/Foster the People tour dates: 5/29 - New York, NY - Rumsey [...]
