Quotes:
"We had this vision on how we wanted the band to look and stuff—so we bought some clothes and these hats, it was fun."
-Paul Garred

"So we went in to get a gig, we don't have a demo burnt, and this guy told us, 'Well, you can't get a gig if you don't have a demo, but I like your hats, so I'm going to give you a gig'"
-Paul Garred

"It's just like an idea, like a chorus, and then we just jam on it - it happens in loads of different ways. The best songs I find always come from the subconscious, like when you don't think. Not to be pretentious about it, but usually songs just blurt out rather than thinking about it. I never write lyrics and then do a song, I find that really hard - that's like a real skill."
-Pritchard on The Kooks' song-writing
