Description

Never/Know marks The Kooks’ return with their seventh studio album — a vibrant, self-produced collection that blends their early guitar-driven charm with fresh sonic textures. This limited edition white vinyl pressing, exclusive to indie retailers, is housed in a single sleeve with a printed inner sleeve, and features warm analogue production and expressive lyrics. The release is part of a series of coloured variants, including red marble and clear vinyl editions.

Helmed by frontman Luke Pritchard, the album explores themes of family, identity, and creative renewal. Standout tracks include the upbeat opener “Never Know,” the nostalgic “Sunny Baby,” and a soulful cover of Wings’ “Arrow Through Me.” Critics have praised the album’s emotional depth and classic rock influences, noting it as a confident evolution of The Kooks’ sound.
