Kings of Leon

Musical Group

American rock band from Nashville, Tennessee, formed by brothers Caleb, Nathan and Jared Followill and their cousin Matthew Followill.

Formed in 1999 in Tennessee. Breakthrough with 2008's Only by the Night, which included the hits "Sex on Fire" and "Use Somebody" and brought the band widespread mainstream success.

DeBaser's reviews track Kings of Leon from raw, 70s-inflected garage rock to big, arena-ready productions. Critics debate commercial turns (Only by the Night) versus returns to roots (Mechanical Bull, When You See Yourself). Standout early work is Youth & Young Manhood; the band remains polarising but respected.

For:Fans of rock, alternative and southern rock; readers interested in album critiques and band evolution.

 A sharp and engaging rock'n'roll.
