Free Friday Ear Food/First Listen - Kings of Leon - Come Around Sundown

Whats up music freaks! Today we have a special Free Friday Ear Food that is itself a first listen! Kings of Leon just released their 5th LP, Come Around Sundown this week. From the reviews I have read, the hard core fans are continuing down a road of disappointment, and the masses are eating it up. Multiple reviewers are comparing them to U2 with this album having an epic sound that will reach around the world.

I'm not so sure I agree with the U2 comment, and I do see where the KoL-heads would be upset (see my Margot rant a few weeks ago), but I will say that I have never been a fan of KoL until now. I have liked the radio hits, but when I listened to their previous albums, I never got anything out of it. This album finally changed my mind about them, and proves they can put together a complete album of songs that satisfy many different musical desires like Southern Rock, Indy Rock, 50's Doo Wop, and even back porch country rock, and still make it all seem coherent. 

And to top it all off, the band is streaming their album at their website, a genius tactic every band should incorporate. Take a listen, and enjoy.

    yes! this cd is awesome.

    I've got to say Roach this music review shit you do is my favorite part of the blog. Broken Social Scene's "Texaco Bitches" is on permanent repeat in my car.

    i'd say out of the two your picture of a demon is more sick and disturbing than my bedazzled titty.
