Darkzzz_ Posted 9 September 2008 Posted 9 September 2008 I have my hands on a very good copy (Illegal so what, I will be buying the real album for sure to go with there others) I have to say It still is not up to the standards of Youth And Young Manhood, but all first albums are hard to beat. I think KOL have now done 4 great albums. They have been consistent at least. I am looking forward to seeing them yet again in December. I would give this a 8/10 so far even possibly a 9 after a few more listens. I love the first track " Closer " really good song. Sex On Fire is a great track and Manhattan is another that stands out. The rest are very good too. Enjoying it.
Joe. Posted 9 September 2008 Posted 9 September 2008 I agree with you on 'Closer' being a good track, I enjoyed that one. Overall, it's a good album, however I prefer their older stuff. This album seems to be a bit more toned down than previous work by Kings Of Leon, which is fine, but I prefer songs like King Of The Rodeo, Four Kicks, Red Morning Light etc better. Still, 7/10.
Darkzzz_ Posted 9 September 2008 Author Posted 9 September 2008 Got it on the Ipod.Still not listened. Depends how much your into them... I have a lot of stuff I have not got round to listening, but this I can't stop listening to. Check it out... See what you think.... I think it is a grower for sure.

Yeah there southern roots really shone in the first album especially, I much prefer the songs you listed, but I think for them to release 4 decent albums is a testament to them, certainly beats a lot of the drivel out now.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 10 September 2008 Posted 10 September 2008 There going off I can't get Sex on Fire out of my head

Finchy Posted 11 September 2008 Posted 11 September 2008 Not really feeling it on the first listen, but i'm sure it will be like the last 3 where it grows on you until you love it so much you want to cream over the disk!
Tilley Posted 13 September 2008 Posted 13 September 2008 Had about three listens this week to and from college. & it is ****ing amazing. 'Use Somebody' is probably my favourite track

BigGibbo Posted 15 September 2008 Posted 15 September 2008 No where near as good as their previous work on what I've heard so far! I can't abide sex is on fire.
Tilley Posted 15 September 2008 Posted 15 September 2008 I have said it before, but, I love it, it's fantastic.
Darkzzz_ Posted 15 September 2008 Author Posted 15 September 2008 I can't stop listening to it. Love it. Roll on December when I get to see them again.
