me

think we should deport them to australia


But their stylish leather jackets

would cause them to sweat away to nothing!


Is that revenge

for them exporting The Vines?


Tis

a well gash tune likes.


Completely,

but are you sure that a mere petition is going to be enough? There is lot of Kooks-love around - there certainly is where I work, anyway. "Will you all please shut up about the fucking Kooks?!" It may take some form of armed insurgency to eliminate them and their followers for good. Even so, I am prepared to take whatever action is required.


best thread ever.

i'm in.


What about that

tune that goes "I know, she knows..." or something. That's alright, no?!


yeah

I like that one.

But yeah, kill them.


i agree

i saw the video today on tv and was first time i heard it. what a disgusting song, even by kooks standards


Sooner or later the singer's going to choke

on one of his own hairballs.


I like

the track 'Eddie's Gun' too much to do this


its hideous

i'd be happy to have them killed - i'll pull the trigger - i don't care


I can't comply

I like "Naive" a little too much.

But I agree, "Shine On" is scraping the barrel a little bit. Plus, how many other songs have there been written called "Shine On" or "Shine *something*" etc?


who can forget

'shine my bellend'


no

what a fail


I won't sign the petition

because otherwise there would be no one to feel superior to when then tell me they like shit bands.


I know!

Let's stop other people's enjoyment!


I like it.

I'm becoming an indie boy again. I like indie.


I'm in.


indie is win.

the new kooks stuff is dire though.

conclusion: there are worse bands. scouting for girls anyone?


Negative Festival:

The Kokks
Scouting for Girls
The Hoosiers


sure why not


Planet Sound gave Shine On

8/10 if i'm not mistaken. That teletext service is a putrid joke.


I saw them perform

this song on ch4 this mornin,well i say perform i actually mean mumble,surely they must realise how empty and uninspired they sound,and the guitarist/keyboardist looks like mickey from big brother.Was it on this site i heard the singer compare coldplay as they are right now to space oddity bowie?

Spackers.


Naive, Sofa Song and Ooh La

cancel out any shit they do.


yes


just youtube

the simon amstell interview with them and it will make you feel much better.

always works for me.
