My title says it all. As a newcomer to the band, I wasn't sure what to expect. What I've ended up with is a CD that hasn't been out of the player for a couple of weeks. Wonderful lyrical songs and a great production job form Elbow's Craig Potter and Guy Garvey. Buy now, enjoy forever.

Artist: Kings of Leon

Already on course to be one of the year's biggest sellers, Only By the Night has sealed Kings of Leon's unlikely position as Britain's favourite American rock band. The Followill brothers (and cousin) have always been tagged as part of a southern rock tradition of family bands such as the Allmans and Lynyrd Skynyrd, a label they vehemently refuted. But the skinny lads certainly looked like a classic rock act, even as they took musical inspiration from indie contemporaries The Strokes and eighties new wave acts such as The Cure and New Order. Only By the Night is effectively a sequel to 2006's terrific Because of the Times, their third record and the first where they nailed their own sound, a striking amalgam of bluesy vocals and post-punk primitivism. In comparison Only By the Night consolidates rather than advances their style. The appropriately incoherent "Sex on Fire", already a chart topping single, is catchy but sounds lightweight next to songs like the fierce "Crawl" and the stadia-ready "Cold Desert" and "Manhattan". The dissonant, almost amateurish "17" is most out of place, though Caleb Followill still bawls it with the same passion he brings to...

Superb album BBC keep playing tracks when showing trailers for progs. Hopefully they KOL keep on track and produce some more quality music (gig reports indicate they are loosing the plot).

happiness is the best album i have listened to in a long time. a mix of old 80s and a brand new sound, its a must for people who like music that has a real sound. 10 out of 10.

Jason De Rulo's Debut Dynamite, 2010-05-14
Jason De Rulo is certainly a bright prospect with some soulful and enlightening words advocating his perspective on love. This album has three pre released songs- the first three in the track lisiting which have begun to pall as prior to this album I had already downloaded off ITunes and listened to them so often that they had begun to grate although all three are fantastic songs. However the other songs are also worthwhile and all have catchy beats and strong lyrics. Jason is particularly strong on Fallen where he sings about other famous couples like Beyonce and Jay and Michelle and Barack Obama to emphasise his love and adoration for his girl and Encore where he begs a girl for a further sexual liaison or "encore". What If is his particular stand out track though with its soulful and melodic lyrics and tune. This album is a must have for any R&B fan and at just 10 tracks every cut stands out and there is no filler. Jason may fade into obscurity yet but this album is a triumph.

They've been previewing this on Planet Rock. Sounds like another classic RP album = possibly even to rival Fate of Nations!

This is great CD for the car, when you don't want just one album but to listen mix of some of the best tunes ever. There are some great ones to sing along too and only a couple to skip. All in all a good buy.
