British indie rock band from Brighton, formed in 2004 and led by singer-songwriter Luke Pritchard; known for the debut Inside In/Inside Out and singles such as "Naive."

Debut album Inside In/Inside Out (2006) features the single "Naive." Junk of the Heart was produced with Tony Hoffer (mentioned in reviews). Let's Go Sunshine was co-produced by Brandon Friesen and Chris Seefried (mentioned in reviews).

DeBaser reviews portray The Kooks as a British indie/britpop band led by Luke Pritchard. The debut Inside In/Inside Out remains a touchstone, while later records draw mixed reactions for polish vs. originality. Let's Go Sunshine is read as a return to britpop strengths; Junk of the Heart praised for production.

 There are high expectations after the very successful first record, "Inside in - Inside out", but perhaps it’s fair to say that too much anticipation has played a bad trick on many admirers of this band as it seems there is nothing frighteningly new under the Brighton sun...
