Kings Of Leon - Come Around Sundown
The sad thing about this Kings of Leon album is it sounds exactly like Only By Night, their exceedingly disappointing last record. Already. And I’m only on track two. And whilst that one was a scaled-back version of the inimitable style that broke them, aimed squarely at the record buying public, Come Around Sundown takes that as a cue and then puts the whole thing through the MOR filter. If Kings of Leon had written a song called Pyro 8 years ago it would’ve been a ripping, fire-breathing rock song but on here it becomes an insipidly dull, plodding trad-rock song. A sorry state of affairs. (I made it to track five).
