Been looking forward to this since they put out some new music a few weeks ago. Just listened all the way through and it's pretty damn solid. Great energy all the way through, will blast it for a while.

The last great song from them, IMO, is Closer.

I will give it a listen. I hope it is good, I have not been a fan of much music they have put out lately.

Listened to it in full this morning. It's terrible in my opinion. I've officially given up hope they'll ever put out anything remotely like their first 3 albums.

i like Reverend the best

Muchacho is my second favorite

Walls, Waste a moment, and around the world come next but nothing special

whole album I can listen too because I enjoy KOL but its average for them

Mechanical Bull has some jams on it. And Come Around Sundown is a terrific album all the way through.

Just listened to my vinyl copy all the way thru. I like it on first listen. Of course I like pretty much everything they've ever done.

I've never been one to hate on them and have, for the most part, enjoyed their stuff. After the first listen I was not impressed. Gonna try it again sometime later.

Who cares what I think though, it's all subjective anyways.

Reverend and Find me are the only ones I find to be ok. They just aren't the same anymore.

It's not a terrible album but it is extremely generic. As one of those people that always answered "Kings of Leon" when asked who my favorite band was between 2005-2010, it is a disappointment.

The opening band on their new tour, Deerhunter, is better than KOL.

Snakeskin and Ad Astra are better than any KOL track in the last 12 years
