Review

Entertainment Weekly - "[W]ith familiar guitar riffs and romantic lyrics that summon the spirit of '66....[They] manage to capture a bit of their idols' effusive energy." -- Grade: B+
Q (Magazine) (p.128) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "KONK is the perfect example of the modern indie record: bright, breezy...enjoyable to jump around to."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.112) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]heir spontaneous energy would improve anybody's day. The thrill bursts from the two guitars..."
Paste (magazine) (p.56) - "[The] quartet wears its wild-eyed energy and pop craftsmanship on its sleeves....Singer/guitarist Luke Pritchard demonstrates a remarkable ear for bouncy and bittersweet melodies..."
Clash (magazine) (p.109) - "While still revelling in the throes of youth, KONK is a compelling advancement from The Kooks, and restores your faith in British pop."

Title Note

On 2008's KONK, the follow-up to the Kooks' well-received debut, INSIDE IN INSIDE OUT, the youthful Britpop ensemble unveils another set of catchy guitar-driven ditties. Buoyed by the crisp, clear production of Tony Hoffer (Beck, the Fratellis), this sophomore outing finds precocious Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard presenting more hook-filled anthems, as evinced by the punchy "Always Where I Need to Be" and the jangly "Mr. Maker." Other standout tracks include the urgent opener, "See the Sun," and the reggae-tinged "Tick of Time." Slightly more energetic and electric than its acoustic-oriented predecessor, KONK will appeal to fans of INSIDE, but is likely to expand the Brighton-based group's audience with its charming immediacy.
