KINGS OF LEON "aha shake heartbreak" cd, 2005:
second album by these US alt-rockers....
the only countries who had switched on fully at this stage were the UK and Ireland,
but the album did go 2x platinum in Australia also (album peaked at #25 here)...
cover art is their version of paying homage to one of their idols in Queen (the band, not the person!)...
three charting singles of fit in the UK, none charted in their homeland....
album has a bit of an early Arctic Monkeys chaotic/feverish/hectic thing happening,
but their trademark sound still shines through on most tracks...
favourite track on this one would be in my top three or four KOL tracks of all time if I made a list...
not my favourite of theirs, infact its my least liked album but it still passes...
