Kings Of Leon Tickets

NEWS

Release Date Announced

Kings of Leon (KOL) have announced the release date for their upcoming 5th studio album, Come Around Sundown.  It is schedule to hit stores in North America on October 19, 2010.  Fans in the UK can enjoy the new sounds on October 18th.

The boys of KOL have made it no secret.  The new album will sound DIFFERENT, so fans, you have been warned!  It has been described as “yet another bold & expansive statement.”  I’m not really sure what that means, but if it sounds nothing like the repetitiveness of Sex on Fire, Use Somebody and Notion, I might be interested.

KOL describe new album, kick off summer tour

For their next album, the Kings of Leon thought it would be a nice change to record in New York City instead of their usual Nashville and L.A. So they packed their bags, headed to the Big Apple and got to work. But instead of the “darker record” the band anticipated, they created something unexpected.

“…I’ll be damned if we didn’t go in there and make a fun record!” KOL drummer Nathan Followill told MTV Radio. “It’s got songs that are beachy, it’s got songs that are a little more like our Youth and Young Manhood days.”

With the beachy album almost finished just in time for summer, the KOL are back out on tour and recently finished headlining at the Bonnaroo Music Festival.

KOL Inspires Celebrity PDA

Kings of Leon frontman Caleb Followill has a seriously sexy voice – so it only makes sense the biggest celebrity romances of the summer would wind up in the band’s audience for high-profile dates this summer.

Possibly the most noted couple, Twilight’s Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, were seen at a Vancouver show in July – it was the official “coming out” announcement that celebrity rags needed to put Bella Swan and Edward Cullen of the big screen hit together in real life.

LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian, who recently left their spouses after news broke that they fell in love on the set of their new movie, were spotted at the California Kings concert in early September.

Drew Barrymore attended the band’s New York show, where she was spotted making out with Gossip Girl’s Ed Westwick (she has since reunited with on again, off again BF Justin Long), and the ‘tween couple Zac Effron and Vanessa Hudgens also appeared, attached at the hip.

Kings of Leon announce fall tour dates

Fans can’t get enough of Kings of Leon this summer…so the rockers are taking their tour into the fall!

This past Wednesday, the band announced a thirty-plus date trek this fall, just as their 2008 album “Only By the Night” was certified Platinum by the RIAA.

The band will kick things off the new leg of their tour on August 7th in Chicago at Lollapalooza, with plans to bounce between Canada and the Continental US until three last shows in Mexico October 20th, 22nd and 24th.

“Only By the Night” has been bouyed by the success of the massive hits “Use Somebody” and “Sex on Fire” - the latter of which won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance by a duo or group.
