Yes, I saw Kings of Leon for my first time last night and better late than never. I'm saying I'm not going to do a concert review for ethical reasons, but in reality, it's because it's Friday morning and after a late night, I'm not in the mood to see where the lack of sleep and absorbed double-Americano takes my ramblings today. I will say I've been a fan of the Followill boys since my first listen of "Fans." And for those of you who know the KOL timeline, you'll realize I'm a rather new fan.
I wasn't a huge fan of the first single RCA and Kings of Leon pushed from their new album, Only By The Night. I finally sat down two nights ago and listened to the entire album straight through, allowing the album's ordering, production, composition and build-up to run it's course. Because of my listening session with the volume up to '11', another song has been on constant repeat on my iPod and in my car. Why? Take a listen.
Here's a snippet from KOL's video diaries during the recording of "Notion." It's not bad to have a producer who'll lay it straight out to you. And by the sound of the entire album, I'm glad he took his time to provide fans with a spectacular album full or depth, great production and something new from KOL.
Howdy! Thanks for visiting this soapbox of mine, produced from the fresh air of the Boulder valley in Colorado. If you have some general comments or maybe want to stand on your own soapbox, feel free to email at bodie_johnson at yahoo.com or leave a comment.
Let's keep the goal in mind here too. I work in the music industry while living in an amazing town offering me an abundance of recreational opportunities. I aim to introduce people to music and artists in hopes that they attend shows, purchase albums and spread the gospel...thus improving my profession and the industry as a whole. If you are an artist, a manager, and/or a label and prefer I remove a song posted here, simply let me know and I'll remove your art.
