It's finally out..Kings of Leon's latest offering, Only by the Night. It's probably their most accessible album to date..and hey you can nearly understand every word Caleb sings. It's an anthemic sort of album which would be perfect echoing around a stadium venue. Not sure yet if it will become my favourite KoL album. First half of the album is superb, second half is slightly weaker, which may be due to the fact it came out so soon after their previous album.
Current favourites are:
Closer
I listened to this opening track for the first time the other night driving along a deserted country road and it sounded so atmospheric. Brilliant.
Sex on Fire
Ok, the title is a bit corny, but this is such a catchy song. I've had the song on repeat for about a month now.. you can't resist belting out that chorus. Good to see them get a no. 1 with this song.
Use Somebody
When I heard a preview of this song I knew it would be one of my favourites. Love the vocal on this.
