ʻO nā Kooks kahi hui mele mele mele Pelekane i hoʻokumu ʻia ma 2004. Hoʻomau ka poʻe mele i ka "mālama i ka hoʻonohonoho bar". Ua ʻike ʻia lākou ʻo ka hui maikaʻi loa ma ka MTV Europe Music Awards.
ʻO ka mōʻaukala o ka hana ʻana a me ka haku ʻana o ka hui ʻo The Kooks
Ma ke kumu o The Kooks:
- Paul Garred;
- Luke Pritchard;
- Hugh Harris.
Ua makemake nui ka ʻekolu i ke mele mai ko lākou mau makahiki ʻōpio. I ka wā i makemake ai nā kāne e hana i kā lākou papahana ponoʻī, ua aʻo lākou a pau ma ke kula ʻo London School of Performing Arts and Technology. Ma hope o ka hoʻokō kūleʻa, ua lilo nā kāne i mau haumāna BIMM.
I ka wā mua, paʻa nā kāne i kā lākou haʻawina. I ka 2000 mua, ua kūʻai nā kāne i nā album o The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Police a me David Bowie a hoʻomaka e nānā i ko lākou ʻano.
Pīhoihoi ʻia lākou i ka pāʻani o nā poʻe hoʻokani pila. I mea e "koʻikoʻi" piha i ka hui, ua kono nā kāne i ka mea pāʻani bass Max Rafferty e hui pū me ka hui. Ma hope o ka hui ʻana o ka bassist i ka hui, hoʻomaka nā kāne e kākau i nā haku mele mua a hoʻonohonoho i nā ʻahamele.
Ua mālama ʻole ʻia ka hui hou no ka manawa lōʻihi. He nui nae na kii o ka poe opio ia manawa. Ua hoʻohuli ʻo Kooks i ka manaʻo ma hope koke o ka hōʻike ʻana i kā lākou EP mua. Aia i loko o ka hōʻiliʻili kahi mana uhi o ke mele na The Strokes Reptilia.
Aia nā Kooks i ke kukui. Hāʻawi ʻia nā mea hoʻokani pila e kekahi mau hale hoʻopaʻa leo i ka manawa hoʻokahi. Ma hope koke iho ua koho nā kāne i ka koho maikaʻi loa no lākou iho a kau inoa i kahi kuʻikahi me ka lepili. Ma hope o kēlā, hoʻomaka nā lālā o ka hui e hoʻopaʻa i kā lākou album mua.
A hiki i ka makahiki 2008, ʻaʻole i loli ka haku mele. Akā ʻaʻole i liʻuliʻu ua loaʻa nā hoʻololi mua ma The Kooks. Ua lawe ʻia nā noho o Rafferty lāua ʻo Garred e Pete Denton lāua ʻo Alexis Nunez. ʻAʻole i lōʻihi ke kaumaha o nā mea aloha no nā kiʻi i haʻalele. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ʻo kēia mau mea hou i lawe mai i ke kani o nā mele i kahi kūlana kūpono. Me ka hōʻea ʻana mai o Pete Denton lāua ʻo Alexis Nunez, ua hāʻule ka kaulana i kali lōʻihi ʻia ma luna o The Kooks.
ʻO ke ala hana o The Kooks
I ka waena o ka makahiki 2000, ua huakaʻi ka hui ma nā ʻāina a puni me kā lākou mau ʻahamele. Eia hou, ua hiki i nā mea ho'okani pila ke ho'opiha i ka repertoire me nā haku mele hou.
I ka hele ʻana mai o nā kāne i ke keena hoʻopaʻa leo me kā lākou mau mea ponoʻī, hoʻopiʻi nui lākou i ka mea hana a me ka ʻenekini kani. He ʻumi mau mele a ka mea kākau i loko o kā lākou waihona puaʻa, akā ua kākau ʻia ma nā ʻano mele like ʻole.
Ua kū iki ke kaʻina hana no ka hui ʻana o nā mele. Akā, ua wehe koke ʻo The Kooks i kā lākou discography me kā lākou album mua. Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i ka LP Inside In / Inside Out. Ua alakaʻi ʻia ka moʻolelo e 14 mau mele.
Ua hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia ka album debut ʻaʻole wale e nā mea pā, akā e nā mea hoʻokani mele pū kekahi. Ua hoʻoikaika kēia i ka hui e hoʻomaka e hoʻopaʻa i kā lākou album studio lua. Ua kapa ʻia ka moʻolelo hou ʻo Konk. ʻO ka hopena, ua loaʻa ka album i ke kūlana 41 ma ka pakuhi Billboard hanohano. Mai ka manaʻo pāʻoihana, uaʻoi aku ka lanakila o ka hōʻiliʻili ma mua o ka mua.
ʻO nā ala o Mr. Maker, i nā wahi a pau aʻu e pono ai, e ʻike i ka lā a alohilohi. ʻAʻole i "overwritten" wale nā haku i nā lua e nā mea hoʻolohe maʻamau. Ua hoʻolaha ʻia lākou ma ke kīwī, hoʻohana ʻia i nā serials a me nā pāʻoihana.
Ma ka nalu o ka kaulana, ua hoʻokuʻu ka poʻe mele i kahi album studio hou. Ua kapa ʻia ka moʻolelo ʻo Junk of the Heart. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka hui ʻana ma kahi keʻena hoʻopaʻa leo pilikino aia ma Norfolk.
Hoʻokuʻu album hou
Ma 2014, ua hōʻike ka hui i kahi mele mele hou. Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i ka hoʻokahi Down. "Hōʻike" ka haku mele i nā mea pā e hiki koke mai ka hōʻike ʻana o ka album ʻehā. ʻAʻole kuhi hewa ʻo "Fans" i kā lākou wānana. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ua hoʻopiha hou ʻia ka discography o ka hui me ka album Listen. Ma hope o ka hōʻike ʻana i ka moʻolelo, hele ka poʻe mele i kahi huakaʻi nui.
Ma hope o ka huakaʻi a me ke komo ʻana i kekahi mau ʻaha mele, ua hoʻopiha nā mea hoʻokani mele o The Kooks i kā lākou waihona mele me nā tracks No Pressure and All The Time.
Ua hua nui nā kāne. Aia ma 2018, ua hōʻike lākou i ka lima o ka longplay i nā mea pā. Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i ka album Let's Go Sunshine. ʻO nā "hits gula" o ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana ʻo nā mele Fractured and Dazed, Chicken Bone, Tesco Disco a me Believe.
ʻO 2018 kahi makahiki ʻaʻole wale no ka nūhou maikaʻi, akā no nā poho nui. Pīhoihoi ka poʻe pā i ka lono i hoʻoholo ʻo The Kooks bassist Peter Denton e haʻalele i ka papahana. ʻAʻole ʻōlelo ka mea hoʻokani pila i nā kumu maoli o ka haʻalele ʻana.
Aia ka hui i kēia manawa
I ka makahiki 2019, ʻo ia ka hui: Luke Pritchard, ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Hugh Harris a me ka mea pahu pahu Alexis Nunez. Ua hui pū ʻia nā mele a me nā ʻaha mele o ka hui me Peter Randall.
ʻO ka hui ʻana, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka makahiki 2018, ke noho nei ka album hou loa i ka discography o ka band a hiki i kēia lā. Ua lilo nā Kooks i ka makahiki 2019 ma ka huakaʻi. ʻO nā ʻaha mele i hoʻonohonoho ʻia no 2020 pono e hoʻopaʻa hou ʻia no 2021.
