or have KoL completely lost the plot on the past two albums they've released?

It was evident change was coming with 'Because of the Times', but now they're just churning out garbage that the radio stations just absolutely LOVE. You hear people saying how they've refined their sound and how undeveloped they were in their first two albums. What utter nonsense, their first two albums are two of my favourite ever albums, so brilliant, and now...this?

Anyone agree?

I know its hard for bands when they get on to the 4th and 5th albums to produce new quality material, but i don't think KoL can be excused for this I'm afraid!

Yeah Kings of Leon sorry :P

They've lost it completely, gutless watered down wannabe anthem rock rubbish now! I saw them on their second album, probably the best gig ive been to! From Because of the Time onwards they've just lost it. Annoying this is, in the UK theyve become huge off the back of their worse albums! Most people are oblivious to their previous amazing records.

Trani, what a great song

Apparently they were a pretty good group back in the day. I guess that would be before they got so popular in the U.S. I'm not going to judge them based on Use Somebody, honestly because anything that bad just had to come from some slick record industry executive's pressure.

Yeah, anyone who listened to them when they were good can see straight through these new records...

Eh, I really like Aha Shake Heartbreak and find everything else to be pretty equal in its mediocreness...
