Kings of Leon - Because of the Times


After listening to Mika, I was ready for some testosterone fueled rock music when Kings of Leon's latest was released at the beginning of April. I haven’t had a whole lot of time to listen to it so at first glance; I’m giving it an unexpected rating. Early press touted this release as a big departure for them so I did not know what to expect but I don’t hear a huge difference in sound. That’s fine with me though. I’ve been gravitating to the up tempo numbers like Charmer and McFearless, but I can picture listening to more dreamy songs like The Runner and Trunk on a late night drive along a lonely highway. I need to plan a road trip soon. --J
