Kings of Leon - American alternative rock band

Kings of Leon are a American alternative rock band. The members of the band are Anthony Caleb Followill, Michael Jared Followill, Ivan Nathan Followill, and Cameron Matthew Followill, however, the band members go by their middle names. After various jobs, the brothers moved to Nashville in 1996. They formed a band in 2000 with their cousin Matthew Followill. The band claims that their music was influenced equally by their religious upbringing and Jack Daniels Whiskey. Caleb recalls listening to "Crimson and Clover" by Tommy James and the Shondells with his uncle, and cites it as the song which really made him pay attention to popular music. This song is later referred to in 'California Waiting' with the lyric "crimson and clover pulling overtime". They were members of the West Tennessee Choir for a short time mainly assigned to falsetto ranged harmonies.Kings of Leon - American alternative rock band

They were introduced to Nashville-based, Emmy-nominated singer/songwriter/producer Angelo Petraglia, who'd previously worked with artists such as Patty Griffin, Emmylou Harris, Trisha Yearwood, Martina McBride, Brooks and Dunn, and Be Your Own Pet. Petraglia would prove very important to the band, moving them in a more pop oriented direction. Eventually Petraglia and the two Followill brothers went to New York City, along with manager Ken Levitatan.

Caleb stated though that "...because of the way we grew up, we were really sheltered from music and we didn't know that much...", going on to say that the significant musical influences have only been in very recent years. The band's later albums have expanded upon the southern rock, country, and blues influences that characterized their early work, drawing from post-punk, shoegaze, and alternative rock.

In early 2009, Nathan announced that the band had "four or five tracks" written for the bands fifth album. In a interview with NME, Caleb stated that some of the new tracks have a bluesy feel, with him and fellow guitarist Matthew staying up all night teaching each other slide guitar.

As a follow up to their headlining slot at Reading and Leeds festival 2009, in a early April edition of NME Caleb said about the new material "Structurally, they're really different from anything out there - a lot of them don't even have a chorus" and continued "Other bands have been complimenting us on the fact we are trying to step outside of the box"

Kings Of Leon - Sex On Fire lyrics

Lyrics to Sex On Fire :
Lay where you're laying
Don't make a sound
I know they're watching
they're watching

all the commontion
the Kiddie like play
has people talking

You
Your sex is on fire

The dark of the alley
The break of the day
Ahead while I'm driving
I'm driving

Soft lips are open
Them knuckles are pale
Feels like you're dying
You're dying

You
Your sex is on fire
And so
Were the words to transpire

Hot as a fever
Rattling bones
I could just taste it
Taste it

But it's not forever
But it's just tonight
Oh we're still the greatest
The greatest
The greatest

You
Your sex is on fire
You
Your sex is on fire
And so
Were the words to transpire
And You
Your sex is on fire
And so
Were the words to transpire

Kings Of Leon - Mcfearless lyrics

Lyrics to Mcfearless :
Stranded with a name
They get the best of me
But I won't will walk away
I don't complain
Now that I was your dame
So then you pester me
And I get peed in the face
And there's a pain
Walker hits the road
What would I care
I like going nowhere
I got the rain
The curds that I was made
Make a bag lunch

So I know I must show
Yes my show
I must go
With my soul
By my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my soul

Pearl necklace sits a girl
She know who picked at me
I ain't seeking to have a safety say
Her bottle thief is out of me
A mind bought easily
In the fit of this mad
McFearless tried to thumb my eyes
But that's why he's blinding me
I ain't living that way
I want my esteem
And make me a better man of me
And I might easily
Just give up on the show

Yes my show
I must go
With my soul
By my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my soul

I must show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
By my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my soul
