This is, by far, the Best Kings CD yet!
They've created a new sound while staying true to their southern rock roots.
It's full of meaningful lyrics, moving ballads, catchy beats, and rich vocals.
It's fresh, comforting, and a beautiful listen.
This only makes me love the Kings of Leon even more!

I had a friend say he didn't like

Haha - I cried when I heard Closer!!
But happy crying.
My best mate's favourtie is Use Somebody and mine's Closer. Love them all though. Such a good album. :)

it is a tremendous album. Im not a huge fan but i bought it anyway and its full of beautiful songs. Its up there with joshua tree and ten as far as classic albums go. Its good to see that they have evolved into a band who are extremely relevant in this age. Whereas many of theirs go awol after one or two records.

Use somebody is amazing.

your a gronk rowan

Bought this as I'd heard a few good KoL tracks, and gave it a fair few listens through last night. Brought it into work today to give it another go...

Honestly.. bit dissappointed so far. I hope it's a grower but only a few good tracks so far. I will get the earlier albums to see where they are coming from with this album, I would probably recommend you do that before getting this one.

I certainly do not understand the OMG THIS ALBUM IS THE GREATEST blah blah mentality as it definately does not strike those chords if your NOT ALREADY a massive fan of KoL.

Try listening to it first in a store or something before buying. I'm certainly left wondering what happened to the genius I heard in the other songs (A bit like the Hoosiers, but you get sick of hearing those real quick).

Some of the music styles are quite cool though, and then let down by his out of tune voice, almost as if they were performing some of the songs live instead of in a studio. (maybe I'm missing something on their style here, as this is the first album of theirs I own).

this album is quite good but doesnt come close to their early work which i thought was amazing i like the southern sound of the lead singers voice old style rock

I have loved Kings of Leon for years, and loved their southern folksy sound of Youth and Young Manhood. Although their latest cds have been awesome too (of course!) I absolutely love Only By The Night. people may slam it, say they are turning "pop-y" to fit in and become more popular, i think thats bull****!
I think its fresh and an excellent new sound. Love Kings! :D

Personally i think there getting too much attention!Everyone says "ohhh sex on fire some tune"!!how about listen to the rest of the album and for that matter listen to the previous albums!!there more than just that one or two song band!!Possibly the best band around today but i don't want to see them turn into something as big as that slut Rihanna!!!

Charmer is my song of the year.

I haven't been a fan of KOL for long just recently heard bout em..but sh!t..they stealing my heart and mind..i f*ck!ng love these people..!! <3!

I Want You is the best track on the album....i love it!

A boat load of bland in a sea full of crap = King of Leon.
