/info/inside" target="_blank">Inside In / /info/inside" target="_blank">Inside Out is the debut studio album by British indie rock band The Kooks. It was released on 23 January 2006, on Virgin Records. It contains the singles "Eddie's Gun", "Sofa Song", "You Don't Love Me", "Naïve", "She Moves in Her Own Way", and "Ooh La". The album was produced by Tony Hoffer of record label Virgin Records. Reaching No. 2 in the UK Albums Chart, the album has sold over 2,000,000 copies worldwide since its release.
Background
After they had signed to Virgin Records, The Kooks were reluctant to record an album right away, stating a desire to focus more on their live performances and songwriting. The band has said embarking on their first live tour instead of recording an album initially helped them develop their style and sound. As lead singer Luke Pritchard claimed, "We didn't sit down with a blueprint. We just naturally developed and we didn't try to shape or mould ourselves to anything." As a result, they went into the studio with hundreds of songs from a variety of genres, and it took an "incredible amount of patience" from producer Tony Hoffer to shape the content into what would become the record. Most of the album is written about Katie Melua, whom Pritchard dated while at the BRIT School.
Following their first tour supporting The Thrills, The Kooks recorded their debut album, /info/inside" target="_blank">Inside In//info/inside" target="_blank">Inside Out, at Konk studios in London in 2005.
Chart performance
Though media attention was dominated by the release of the Arctic Monkeys debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not on the same day, /info/inside" target="_blank">Inside In//info/inside" target="_blank">Inside Out recorded first week sales of 19,098 and entered the UK Albums Chart at number nine. It would eventually peak at number two for two weeks. It has since been certified 5× Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for sales of over 1,500,000.
In a later interview with NME, Pritchard thanked the Arctic Monkeys for "shielding" The Kooks from the press' scrutiny: God bless the Arctic Monkeys because if it wasn't for them we wouldn't have been so shielded. We were so overshadowed by the success [of] it (their album) because it was so monster and we crept in behind everybody's back.
