Title: Overated band with a good publicist
Product review: Kings of Leon has timed their arrival on the music scene brilliantly. 3 years ago this album would have gotten 2 stars from every reviewer. Now it's cool to be "raw" and every album with this sound is highly reviewed . The trouble here is that this band isn't raw in the stripped down sense, but rather raw in the lack of talent sense. The songs aren't great, the band is pretty average, and the vocals by Caleb are completely incomprehensible. On what level is it cool to intentionally slur your vocals?Yes, they're from the south and have seventies haircuts. No, their music is not even close to on par with great southern rock bands of the seventies. Other than their retro southern seventies image this is a truly unremarkable band.
