This is the second single to be taken from their self-titled debut album which was released on the recently revived Blue Horizon label. "Loud n Proud" was the song that caught the attention of producer, CC Adcock. So much so that he flew to London to get a feel [...]

If you haven't listened to The Kooks before, now is the time to start. Self-described as more pop than rock, these 4 Brits know how to have fun. With a crashing piano, some 60's esque vocals and some jamming guitar leads by Hugh Harris Junk of the Heart is a timeless kooky classic. After the departure of their long-time drummer Paul Garred in 2009, the band felt like their very foundation might just fall apart. But fortunately, with the rescue of Chris Prendergast just last year, their drums will keep [...]
![[EXCLUSIVE] The Kooks - Junk Of The Heart (Happy): acoustic session](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3714355_lg.jpg)
My great friends at 3èmeGauche TV and I were lucky enough last week to spend a Kooksified few days! First we attended a great show at La Flèche d'Or, one of Paris' most famous indie venues, where the band played an awesome 1-hour plus set comprising most of their past hits (all my faves at least) and some new tracks. Cause yeah, Luke Pritchard and his mates are releasing their third studio album today (Sept 12), and let me tell you something: these guys know how to write a song and drive a crowd crazy. [...]
Aunque parece que ya no están recibiendo tanto buzz de la prensa como hace algunos años, lo cierto es que The Kooks están de enhorabuena y de celebración, ya que hoy día 12 de septiembre están viendo como su tercer trabajo de estudio se lanza al mercado. Se trata de ** Junk Of The Heart , un disco editado a través de Virgin del que conocíamos los primeros detalles hace ya algún tiempo . Lo curioso del asunto es que en una entrevista recientemente publicada por el diario británico The Sun [...]

We had bought the tickets earlier the day of and had no idea that Sara Lowes and Rah Rah would be opening but it was a pleasant surprise. Kicking off the night was UK singer Sara Lowes: She actually has a full band back home, but it was [...]

Is it the experimental third album that sees them chart a new course, or an attempt to consolidate and get back to level pegging? The Kooks - Junk of the Heart It's been a funny few years for Luke Pritchard and The Kooks. It's interesting to note that their debut album Inside Out/Inside In was released on the same day as the record-breaking introductory record from those little-known Arctic Monkeys chaps. It could also be somewhat surprising that these two albums have actually sold very similar [...]

The Kooks popped by Radio 1 BBC Live Lounge this week to perform a cover of Foster The People 's smash "Pumped Up Kicks". After hearing the original way too much at this point, some British vocals on this are a nice change of pace. The Kooks "Pumped Up Kicks" (Foster The People Cover)
If you haven't heard Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks" I'm sorry but you have been living under a rock. There is no other way to put it, this song is absolutely everywhere, and it should be. The good news of when a song blows up like "Pumped Up Kicks" has, other artists are bound to cover the song or try to replicate the sound Foster the People have made. Enter The Kooks, British indie rock/
Everybody has heard time and time again about the "curse" that generally follows massively popular modern artists from the UK when they crossover in America, especially those with a decidedly British sound. While there are exceptions, these acts find themselves in clubs and theaters rather than arenas, with the occasional large cult following replacing ubiquity. Brighton rockers The Kooks have been one of the biggest American breakthroughs in recent years, selling over 50,000 copies of their 2006 debut Inside In/Inside Out during an age when people don't even buy albums, so anticipation has been high on [...]
