I am a big fan of this band. I love to hear the British accent in their song. They have a lot of great song in their list. The Kooks latest album , Konk is such a great piece of music work. I think The Kooks is not an alien name for Britain people but for music fans who does not know them , here is their biography from Wikipedia.

The Kooks are an English rock band, formed in Brighton in 2004. The band currently consists of four members; Luke Pritchard, Hugh Harris, Paul Garred and Peter Denton. They have released two studio albums; their 2006 debut Inside In/Inside Out peaked at number two on the UK Albums Chart, and their 2008 follow up Konk reached number one.The Kooks formed at a stage school where they were all students. Lead singer and rhythm guitarist Luke Pritchard, got bassist Max Rafferty involved in a college project, which formed the base of the band. After getting lead guitarist Hugh Harris and drummer Daniel Lowman involved, they took their name from the song "Kooks" on the 1971 David Bowie album Hunky Dory.[1] When they tried to trademark the name, they found that in the late/mid 1990s a Swedish band by the same name released an album in Sweden called "Too Much is Not Enough".[2]The Kooks released a debut EP and played gigs around Brighton, where they were based at the time. They were signed to Virgin Records.
