The Kooks

I loved their first album, and they have some really good demos. But Konk sucked.

I love them, and I don't understand how there isn't a thread about luke's style yet.

Agreed, wonder what they're up to now?

I think they are getting ready their third album. and luke has something with another band doing covers or something.

How is it that I'm digging this thread back from the dead?

Love, love, love The Kooks. It's weird, they make such infectious tunes yet I don't find Luke particularly vocally talented. His song writing is another story however. Can't decide if I want to see 'em at Webster Hall this week. Last time I saw them, Luke was wasted and didn't put on the show I would've hoped for.

I think Junk of the Heart is consistent with both albums. They grow, musically, yet stick to the same tried and true sound. I think they'll be around for quite some time.
