I mean, compared to say, Nickelback, the Kings' new sound is pretty "underground" and "good." However, compared to other bands that make real music that isn't backed by a corporate agenda, their new music isn't very good.
I've never been a huge fan of Kings of Leon, but I just don't get why bands who get popular start sounding like the mainstream.
I mean, I just don't get the hype for Only by the Night at all. I mean, the shiny production, the bland, generic riffs. I mean, these guys used to at least have a sound that was differnet. Seriously, Consolers of the Lonely is so much more of a pure rock album, but I guess the Kings are the flavor of the month.
