The Kooks are shit aren't they?

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

The Kooks are shit aren't they?

Christ have you heard their new single?They try and 'rock' .It has the worst guitar playing by a pro I've heard in years.The solo with the harmoniser down an octave sounds like a dalek's fart.Trully awful stuff.

Well they are from Brighton!

No, they truly are crap.

What's an octave. Is that something to do with the doppler effect?

All you have to do is play some Nickleback and The Kooks sound like the greatest thing since the A minor chord.

Octave-same note but highre or lower in the scales.

The doppler effect is where basically something moving emits a wave e.g sound from an ambulance.As the the ambulance approaches an object(say the ear) the distance between each wavelength is shorter and therefore the frequency is higher and the pitch of the note is higher.As it moves away from the object the wavelengths are longer and therefore the pitch of the note is lower.Hence the daaaa-daaaa-daa-da-daa-daaa-daaaa-daaaa from ambulances when they pass.

Just call me Hawkers.

I hate The Kooks. When I say hate, I mean "would like to kill". They are not even a real band - they came from the fucking Brit School of stage school whores with pushy parents. I'd give them a Chelsea fucking Dagger - in the bollocks.
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

Duffy's quite fit so can we avoid killing her if at all possible?

I'm a big fan of Kook on here. But the plural version are dire and whigy and festival fodder.

...fuck me DC ,she looks like Ivy Tilsley!

If we have enough bullets I'll add The Courteneers(please get some tunes) and One Night Only(for obvious reasons.They try and look like Joy Division but sound like Hootie and the Blowfish)

I'm sure you're familiar with the old adage "you don't look at the mantlepiece when you're poking the fire".
