10 Tracks to Echo in the Dark

A synth-heavy pivot toward Berlin-inspired retro-futurism. Shimmering electronics meet the band's signature melodic hooks for a polished, late-night indie-pop record.

The Kooks went to Berlin and came back with a sleek, synth-pop record that's perfect for late-night city drives.

A sleek and optimistic exploration of connection through a retro-futurist lens.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The shimmering synth pads that open 'Connection' signaling a departure from their guitar-heavy past.

The infectious, rubbery bassline of 'Cold Heart' that bridges the gap between indie rock and disco.

The stripped-back, vulnerable vocal delivery on 'Without a Doubt' that closes the album on a tender note.
