Product Description

 
Kings of Leon: Caleb Followill, Matthew Followill, Jared Followill, Nathan Followill. Personnel: Caleb Followill (vocals, guitar); Matthew Followill (guitar, background vocals); Nathan Followill (drums, background vocals); Jared Followill (background vocals). Recording information: Blackbird Studio, Nashville, TN; Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA. Photographer: James Minchin. As with their first two albums, YOUTH AND YOUNG MANHOOD and AHA SHAKE HEARTBREAK, BECAUSE OF THE TIMES finds Nashville alternative rockers Kings of Leon recreating the majesty of 1970s southern rock for the emo generation. Sounding like they were raised as much on a steady diet of Neil Young, the Faces, and the best of Capricorn Records as they were on Pentecostal preaching--the father of the band's three brothers is himself a noted preacher--the Kings of Leon create classic-sounding but demonstrably modern alternative rock that appeals to both the vintage 1970s AOR audience and its kids. Lyrically, songs such as "Knocked Up," "Camaro," ...

Kings of Leon's "Because of the Times": One of 2007's Crowning Rock Achievements

Date of Review:  Dec 26, 2007
The Bottom Line: This is one of the times you should believe the rags that say Kings of Leon are one of the most exciting bands around. Give this album a spin!
Review: Now here's a strong case for those of us who are still lucky enough to have record stores (real record stores, not Best Buys or Targets) near us. Walking through my local Virgin Megastore one afternoon, I found myself captivated by the music that...

Kings of Leon - Because of the Times

Date of Review:  Apr 24, 2009
Review: This latest offering from Kings of Leon is a pretty solid album that took some time to grow on me. At first, I hardly liked any of it. This one isn't quite as hard as Only by the Night, and they seem to be going into more of a U2 direction with some...

Because Of The Times
Perhaps because it was the first album the band have made in which they entered the studio knowing exactly how they wanted it to sound, Because of the Times is Kings of Leon s most diverse collection yet. Brimming with ideas, it represents a huge leap forward both in songwriting and musical prowess. Though Caleb Followill writes the majority of the lyrics, this was the first album where all four band members contributed equally and had a say so in every song, Nathan Followill says. Adds Caleb: because we were trying to make a different- sounding record, we had to sit back and listen to each other a little more. To shepherd them through the process, the Followills turned to their long-time producers Ethan Johns (Ryan Adams, Ben Kweller) and Angelo Patraglia. Ethan, man, he knows how to get it out of you how to get you to perform at your highest level, Nathan says. And Angelo wants you to perform at your highest level, but he wants you to have fun while you re doing it because that comes across in the recording.
