Look…I as much as anyone have had my doubts about Kings Of Leon for YEARS now, ever since their first fucking album. HOWEVER, you dudes need to loosen up. This really isn’t generic, I could see how one might think so at first but it’s a really special song. It wouldn’t be special in 93, but for today it is. And what’s wrong with the video? Who doesn’t want to see a group of phenomenal looking guys writhing around all sweaty like they have a fever from the STD’s they caught from Kim Stewart? Caleb does not have a comb over, he has a really weird low hairline. If he wasn’t so hot he’d actually be kind of weird looking. But no, hot instead. I’d take an STD from him, there’s always antibiotics. While I don’t think the *only* reason guys hate on this group so much is jealousy, I think that is definitely a contributing factor. It’s ok for a band to be hot as fuck as long as they don’t seem to realize it, but it’s obvious as hell that KOL are fully aware of their looks and it’s all very calculated. Those shoulders? They spend time in the gym, trust. That pisses dudes off, or at least the kind of dudes who frequent this website. No offense guys but come on, how could you not be jealous? I’m jealous and I’m a fucking chick. These guys are dirty, dirty sluts, so it makes sense that they’d make cock rock. I truly don’t feel they are selling out because I’m not sure they ever intended to be anything other than mainstream. Caleb began as a country singer, you can’t say he’s just totally loyal to one sound or another. I do feel the vests were a calculated attempt to look all early 90′s U2 but is that such a bad thing? As long as they don’t start sounding like present day U2 everything will be ok.
Sex On Fire is all about delivery. The lyrics began as a “joke,” whatever, but the way he delivers them is, in fact, ridiculously sexy. Don’t hate, you know it’s true. My favorite recent song by them is still The Charmer.
But to weigh in on a question posed earlier, I think they all pass around a mirror on the tour bus and jack off individually. But I can’t really blame them.
