That's actually not half bad. After I saw they chose their name from the Bowie track I definitely had to have a listen Wink

They remind me a little of Boomtown Rats whom I love.

I wonder if Rob listens to The Maccabees.

Even though it's not my kind of music, I like it. You should try First Love.

First I heard I predict a riot, didn't go for me, but Love You Less and Less and Oh My God turned it around.

The version in there of i predict a riot is a live cut, the studio track is a lot better.

I've never really been a fan of newer British bands ... they all sound too similar.

Good band, but wouldn't this thread be more suited for the music forum?

Indie Rock is the best, you should explore the genre more so than just The Kooks.
