Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Konk, the second album from indie pop starlets The Kooks, will appeal to those
who enjoyed the catchier, hookier elements of their best-selling debut Inside
In/Inside Out. For the band are more "pop" than "indie" this time around, and
Konk is an overt attempt at winning even more chart-topping kudos: and it's not
a bad attempt at that. Recorded over a six-week period at the end of 2007
(in Ray Davies' Konk Studios in London), the album's first single "Always Where I
Need to Be" is as insouciantly catchy as a contemporary rock band can get, while
tracks like opener "See the Sun," and "Mr. Maker", with its infectious hand claps,
are equally accessible. There's tougher fare like "Sway", which show the boys can
blast it when they want, but the album generally plays it safe, grappling (clumsily
in places) with themes of love and sex, and revealing not a great deal of musical
or lyrical depth in the process (see "Do You Wanna"). The album runs out of steam
towards the end, and though fans of their earlier material will love it, fussier i
ndie fans will probably point their ears towards something less contrived.
Deluxe version of The Kooks "Konk" with bonus disc includes acoustic versions of 2
"Konk" tracks and five exclusive tracks
