2.5 average | Rudy K. EMERITUS | August 16th 09 | The Kooks have perfected the formula for the perfect pop song with "Always Where I Need To Be": doo-doo-doos in the chorus, Pritchard’s amusing but contrived Jagger-esque howls, and a stuck-in-your-head beat.
“Mr. Maker” is recycled Britpop, “Shine On” is dripping with the corniest sentiments this side of the Goo Goo Dolls, and Pritchard’s lyrics generally could use more than a little work. But it is guitarist Hugh Harris that saves the album. From the multi-tracked wizardry of “Do You Wanna” to the tasteful strumming on “Sway” to the ridiculously bouncy riffs and solos on virtually any song, Harris’ work makes the album a relatively pleasing memory of Britpop’s heyday.

3.0 good | bugsprite10 | April 25th 08 | The album, however enjoyable it is, suffers from always sounding like every other Britpop band out there. Throughout the record are tracks that could fit snugly on an Arctic Monkeys or Fratellis album.
