The Kooks: Konk
BRIT-POP has a lot to answer for.
It lowered the sonic ambitions of British bands to feed the anthem-lust of an ever-widening mainstream.
Razorlight, Arctic Monkeys and The Kooks, above, are all culprits.
Konk might disappoint fans expecting another Inside In/Inside Out but it won’t offend them.
The Kooks: Konk (Virgin)
OUR VERDICT: 2/5
