- There is, it turns out, such a thing as too inspired. While every other Tom, Dick, and Interpol are happy to siphon a career out of the middle eight of Love Will Tear Us Apart, there are bands--glorious, gluttonous bands--who gorge so widely upon rock's multifarious recipes that they become overfed with ideas, unsure of their own outline. It was just such a band, on July 6, 2005, that waddled over the threshold of Crouch End's Konk Studios to face the workout of its life.
"The idea from when we started the band was to be quite eclectic and open-minded," says Luke Pritchard, Kooks' barely-20 year old singer. "The reason there's a lot of styles and influences is more due to circumstance. No one really rules the band, everyone's into different styles of stuff so it gets pulled in different directions. We have a lot of reggae and funk and soul influences--there's even some basic jazz in there, nothing too crazy though. That was what we always want to do. Even before we wrote the songs there was the intention of 'What do we all like?' and nobody could pinpoint one because there's so many bands we like."

- "The youthful quartet, who’ve been successfully campaigning for the title of SF’s new indie rock darlings, charmed their way through their early Beatles-y repertoire so winningly we could almost hear the Wonder Years voiceover as they left the stage."
