The Kooks

just heard some of their stuff last night. seems pretty handy to me, in fact you could say i like their shit
 
and why is that, where's the hate coming from?

granted i've only heard sway and naive, but those two songs are ace.
 
There alright to be fair I'm just not really overly into them.

My comment was formed for no reason and I just couldn't resist posting it. They do seem abit like McFly and Busted when they've grown up abit and had a shag.
 
yeah, and another thing is most of you lot are used to the pom accent. it's different for us.
 
I'm not a fan of the Kooks, have heard worse though...

However, their fan base has to be the biggest collection of white middle class wankers i've ever encountered in my life.

Milburn and Courteeners > Kooks.
 
Re: the original post. TBF, if an American reads the music blogs, he's aware of the Kooks. I steered clear of them as they are one of those massively overhyped NME bands that fizzle out quickly--see Arctic Monkeys, Kaiser Chiefs, Pete Doherty. They're just okay, nothing special.

I'd have to agree.
