 TWAS 126: Kenickie, Random (Gary Numan tribute)
It was hard to tell, taking short singles in isolation, and mixing a-sides with experiments, whether Kenickie were really going to live up to their own mythology, but I thought I heard enough evidence to believe they were, and the album is my vindication.
The pacing of this album, alone, is ample evidence for me that Kenickie has a lot more mileage left in their first burst of inspiration, even if they never have another great thought between them.
Kenickie's "I'm an Agent" is airier and shinier than Numan's, but otherwise basically faithful.

 Kenickie
Refining the riot grrrl aesthetic to a simple, bratty attitude, Kenickie were one of a rash of British teenage punk-pop bands that emerged in the wake of Supergrass' success in the mid-'90s.
More indebted to indie rock than either Supergrass or their peers Ash, but considerably less strident, amateurish and cutesy than the Bis, Kenickie's music wasn't necessarily revolutionary, but it had an invigorating energy that earned them a cult following within the UK music press before the release of their 1997 debut album, At the Club.
Laverne's older brother, Johnny X, was recruited as drummer, and the band chose to call themselves Kenickie, naming themselves after John Travolta's sidekick from Grease.

 TWAS 198: Kenickie, theaudience, Astrid
Kenickie, for utterly unfathomable reasons, had abandoned their caustic muses and made a record full of disposable, gutless lounge-pop.
If this turns out to be Kenickie's final album, after all, it won't be that hard to argue, at least to ourselves, that their trajectory was sufficiently steep that the third point simply fell outside the coordinate system.
The old Kenickie would have picked at the tears in the synth-pop fabric until half of it unraveled, where the new Kenickie seems more inclined to mend them, but the impulses are related.

Kenickie are informed by both punk passion and lipsticked Brit-pop grandeur.
So Kenickie ultimately decide to make melancholia empowering: "I think that everyone looks better when they're sad," Lauren sings on "Brother John," her vulnerability and accent dovetailing perfectly.

 Kenickie: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
Like Ash before them, Kenickie has an adolescent exuberence that makes At the Club a joyous, infectious debut.
Kenickie are self-styled adolescents, making a big deal of their age, not only in their surprisingly funny lyrics, but in the way their guitars and drums bounce off of each other, creating a wonderful cacophony.
And just as wonderful are the songs themselves, filled with hooks and melodies that ring in the head, especially since they're delivered with ragged, invigorating enthusiasm.

 Rolling Stone : Kenickie: At The Club : Music Reviews
Kenickie, a three girl/one boy combo from northern England, play more conventional yet highly satisfying frothy glam punk, and relish its commercial success.
Bis actively promote the concept of a "Teen C Nation," and Kenickie revel in typical nothing-can-stop-me teenage arrogance.
There are also ominous signs that Bis and Kenickie may be in trouble once their hormones settle down and they have to replace attitude with actual songwriting: Kenickie's slow songs are particularly clunky ("Acetone"), and Bis' anthems are rather interchangeable.

Kenickie's first album, "At the Club", was a an alternative music marvel, comparable to a kickier version of Elastica's first album.
kenickie's main strength, if you ask me, were their superior songwriting skills, which are still here: "magnatron", "run me over", and "411" are as wonderful as anything from "at the club" (possibly better).
but for those who reveled in kenickie's gorgeous pop melodies (loud guitars or not), several songs on this album make it a must.

The tidy guitar band - made up of three 19-year-old women and a 20-year-old male drummer - takes its name from the bad-boy character played by Jeff Conaway in the hit movie from 1978, the year the women were all born.
Conventionality belongs to yesterday, and Kenickie goes as far as it can with its debut Warner album "At the Club," out June 17.
It straddles Go's-Go's pop, Blondie-like punk and a general frenzy, lacing it with just enough fetching detail, such as the infectious handclaps on the track "Millionaire Sweeper." One British writer described them as "the Shirelles meets the Ramones."
