I never really managed to really get into all this new indie music scene until I heard my dad playing 'Crawl' by Kings of Leon when I visited him a while ago. I was blown away by it and had to investigate further and I went off to buy the album Only By The Night.

Hearing the starting track 'Closer' for the first was quite an experience, it was fresh, it was different and it sounded new. It also quite strangely made me feel like music hasn't made me feel for well over ten years now and so I reccommend Kings of Leon as a great new source of entertainment.

By the time you're listening to the aboslutely stunning and beautiful 'Sex On Fire' you realize that this is one album that just oozes sheer originality. Being a musician a listening experience like this can actually make you quite jealous.

I won't go into the details of every single track, as there are one or two songs that I generally don't listen to. Mainly I think the first half of the album is the strongest, in particular the one's mentioned above.

I don't know the origins of the band or who their influences are but one thing is certain, this is a fantastic and very entertaining band with a lot of talent and Only By The Night by kings of Leon comes highly recommened by just about everyone I know.

Kings Of Leon are one of my favourite bands - love them. I agree, their album is fantastic. Good review but could add more detail!
