Kula Shaker比較絕的是，旋律往往很古怪，但卻十分動聽，這在“Hey Dude”和“Into The Deep”中體現的最明顯，能讓你一下子就能記住它的旋律。“Temple Of Everlasting Light”中的打擊樂和木吉他的相互襯托，加之主唱飄忽的演唱，已經向我們開始展示這張專輯中的異域風情了。而緊接下來的“Govinda”則是一首不折不扣的印度風格的歌曲，手鼓和節奏的編排都十分簡潔，甚至歌詞都是用梵文演唱的，無疑，這首歌是專輯裡的坐標。“Magic Theatre”很值得慢慢地品味，簡單的鍵盤樂伴奏，舒緩的旋律和Crispian Mills那若隱若現的演唱，再配上背景中的Trance效果，儘管只有兩句歌詞，儘管只有2分40秒，但這首歌卻是專輯中得頗有實驗色彩的作品。“Into The Deep”是一首很60年代的歌曲，喜歡Brit-Pop的聽眾不妨能從這首歌中找出一點Brit-Pop影子來。“Sleeping Jiva”是首短小的器樂曲，漫不經心地木吉他使人感覺他們好像是在隨意地練手，但突然峰迴路轉，引出了下面的主題——另一首印度風格的“Tittva”，在編排上，這首歌倒更像Pink Floyd在70年代時慣用的結構，中間的合唱莊重而又神秘。這首歌也是樂評中常常提到的。這是Kula Shaker在專輯中的一面，而另一面，是他們那種老搖滾的風格 ，“Grateful When You’re Dead/Jerry Was There”、“303”、“Start All Over”都屬於這一類，而且表現得也絕不遜色。

K is the debut album by Kula Shaker, released on 16 September 1996. When it was released, it became the fastest selling debut album in Britain since Elastica's debut the previous year.[11] The album reached the #1 position in the UK charts, however in America it stalled at #200 in the Billboard charts.The Grateful Dead's psychedelic rock style is an influence on Kula Shaker's first and second albums. The hidden track after "Hollow Man" is a recording of A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, speaking about his own guru.The album received mixed reviews; Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic noted the band's "powerful rush", but said they "have trouble coming up with hooks"
