Saw them live recently, really good show. Openers The Morning Benders were cool to.

you're so lucky! :veryangry:

What's the difference between Konk (in blue letters) and Konk (in red letters)? I know that the red letters one is a special edition or something, but I don't know what's in this edition that's not in the other one. Could anyone tell me? :embarassed: :D

The only difference I know is that one version came with a bonus disc

Yes that is the difference. One version has bonus cd and it's called RAK

got tickets for hamburg in november :dance:

NEW ALBUM ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

On their facebook page 2hrs ago:

 

Some very exciting news being announced on Monday. Stay tuned...

Yaay can't wait!

 

I love them! When I first heard 'Do you wanna' I was singin it all day. :D 'Eddie's gun' is funny haha. :)

i've heard their cover of MGMT's Kids and Coldplay's Violet Hill, they sound good! :awesome:

^ Violet Hill by The Kooks.. Best CP cover I've ever heard. They really made it original, not just imitated the original. :dozey:

Thanks to all of you guys for coming to see us on our miniature tour. It was a great time. Loved playing some new songs to you - meant a lot to us. We will be confirming the title and release date for the album tomorrow so look out for it. See you soon - Luke x

^ Violet Hill by The Kooks.. Best CP cover I've ever heard. They really made it original, not just imitated the original. :dozey:

 

I heard the Pendulum cover of Violet Hill on youtube and it was, pardon my French, nothing but fucking bullshit. So I saw The Kooks cover of the song on related videos and saw that and it was brilliant. Best Coldplay cover I've heard.

The Kooks are very pleased to announce details of their third album: "Junk Of The Heart" will be released on 12th September. A limited number of signed albums are now available to pre-order via Play (1,000 copies only): http://thekooks.com/junkoftheheart/

 

Here's the album tracklisting: 1. Junk of the Heart (Happy) / 2. How’d You Like That / 3. Rosie / 4. Taking Pictures of You / 5. Killing Me / 6. Fuck The World Off / 7. Time Above The Earth / 8. Runaway / 9. Is It Me / 10. Petulia / 11. Eskimo Kiss / 12. Mr. Nice Guy

Woo! Can't wait! :D

I can quite happily say right now that Eskimo Kiss, How D'Ya Like That? and Is It Me are absolute blinders.

 

Bit of a shame that Carried Away never made the cut though because that was definitely one of my other favourite new tracks they played in London.

 

Also, weird question, why is it Saboteur keeps getting played live but is still yet to make it to an album?

Whooot - new album coming soon?

I'll see them on Friday a few hours before CP!.. :-)

Anyone see their set on the same stage as Coldplay? Saw some of it. Wasn't bad. Pretty good stuff.

yeah i saw them in nuremberg. they were just playing 2 hours before coldplay! i think they only played old stuff but i dont listen to them so much so i dont really know.. i liked it very much though!

Bought a ticket today for their UK Tour! :D
