Kings Of Leon Pissed Off The Wrong Music Journalist
After twice reading this review of the new Kings Of Leon album, I am even more convinced that this review had to be written by a bitter, former lover of frontman Caleb Followill. Follow the link to read cringe worthy zingers such as “though his band has toured the world several times over, [Followwill] can’t see past his own dick” and, my personal favorite, “surely, we can do better for the platonic ideal of a rock band than four guys gunning for a spot rightfully inhabited by My Morning Jacket but instead coming up with the best songs 3 Doors Down never wrote.”
I’m surprised that it took this long for someone to call these guys out. I have a hard time believing that anyone can seriously say they like any of their music. Hopefully this will be the beginning of the end for these hundred dollar haircuts?
I’m pretty sure this reviewer hit the nail right on the head but I’ll never listen to the record to find out. KoL have sucked from the first note of their completely manufactured, probably ghost-written soundtrack to commercials that they called a debut album.
man. the angry 45 year old sandwich maker that i keep trying to fire loves this album. he’s an ex-light guy who LOVES tesla. he plays the board bro!! he’s seen triumph…not the dog…..deadsun, dood
