Kings of Leon return with the release of their highly anticipated fourth album 'Only By the Night'. It follows rapidly in the footsteps of the bands previous albums 'Youth and Young Manhood', 'Aha Shake Heartbreak' and 'Because of the Times'. The album is a bold and expansive sonic statement that looks set to solidify kings of Leon's position as one of the most important bands of 2008. With its stunning melodies, ringing guitars, and razor-sharp grooves, 'Only by the Night' delivers on the promise Kings of Leon have shown throughout their career. From the desolate atmospherics of the opening track 'Closer' (which is about a lovesick vampire) to the emotional intensity of the closing ballad 'Cold Desert' (about a man at the end of his rope who picks himself back up), 'Only by the Night' is all heart from start to finish.LP - Double LP repressed.
