I like them but I think they`re capable of much better than what they`ve released.

I`d like to see them push the whole rawer bluesier element.I think they sound too polished at the moment.

If you want raw blues, you listen to The black keys. KoL are southern rock.

I know that , what i`m saying is i`ve heard them play live and I don`t think their albums do their sound any justice and make them sound a bit flat.

Listening to their albums I just want them to crank up a gear & make it sound dirtier , much more like their live sound.

I hear what you're saying, but I actually preffer their cleaner sound, I thought the versions of California dreaming and Talihina sky on the album were absolutely dreadful compared to the polished up versions I got on line.

Well i`m not saying it would work for every song.Sometimes a bit of polish on a song makes it better.Sometimes it`s better to keep it simple & give it a very live sound.I`m sure they could do both.

Default Love em...

I used to live in Nashville, TN and had the Kings of Leon attended a couple parties I threw at a place called "The Acklen House" (It was a house on Acklen where we threw parties) They were pretty much unknown in the USA.

Recently I moved to London and cannot believe how huge they are! I live down the street from The Garage, where they shot one of their videos, and it blows me away that some guys who used to do blow at our parties are celebrities here!
