The Kooks - Konk - Released April 14th
April 14th will see the release of 'Konk', the eagerly awaited new album from The Kooks. It is their second album, and the follow-up to their hugely successful 2006 debut 'Inside In/Inside Out' which sold some two million copies worldwide and spawned massive singles 'She Moves In Her Own Way', 'You Don't Love Me', 'Sofa Song', 'Eddie's Gun', 'Ooh La' and 'Naïve'.
'Konk' was recorded over a six week period at the tail-end of 2007 in Ray Davies' Konk Studios in north London, plus a week at Los Angeles' Sound Factory. The sessions once again united the group with esteemed producer Tony Hoffer (Beck/Air/The Fratellis). Explaining how he came to suggest the album title, guitarist Hugh says, 'I just started thinking how cool the studio is, and how much of a part of our sound it is.'
'Konk' features twelve tracks. There's 'Gap' which is classic Kooks, and 'Shine On' which finds Luke exploring hitherto unchartered lyrical territory over the loveliest of melodies. It's destined to become another lynchpin in The Kooks' live set. First single 'Always Where I Need To Be' is a tumbling rocker with a 'do-do-do, do-do-do-do' refrain that might just be the catchiest thing they've ever done. 'Sway' and 'Mr Maker' are other album highlights.
The Kooks second album 'Konk' is out now!
