The days when The Kooks initially made a name for themselves as the better-mannered and more freshly scrubbed younger brothers of the post-Libertines 2000s indie rock demi-monde may be somewhat distant, but the band have not let the fickle mistress of fashion bother them unduly, instead satisfying a large global fanbase with a series of albums that combine easy charm and upbeat song craft as well as rock classicism with innovation. This was never clearer than on 'Listen', on which a new drummer and a hip-hop producer in the London-based Inflo result in a new sound that combines their Beatles/Stones swagger with a new loose-limbed fixation with groove, marking a brave new dawn for this perpetually youthful troupe.
