Kings Of Leon - New Album, Fall Tour

Fresh off one of their largest shows, a headlining spot at England's Glastonbury festival, Kings Of Leon are ready to hit the road in support of their latest studio effort, Only By The Night. The follow up to 2007's Because Of The Times, set to be released on September 23rd, will also feature a full North American tour in support. For this trek they have enlisted the help of a few acts that will more than enhance the evenings events. For the whole tour, We Are Scientists will take the opening slot, while The Stills and The Whigs will rotate support duties for different dates.

The first single from Only By The Night, entitled "Sex On Fire", is streaming on their MySpace page as we speak, so after you see if they are coming to your town (they're coming to mine!), head on over there to check out the new tune.

I am not very versed in the music of The Stills, but if KOL are bringing them along, I'm sure they'll be good. I do wish that The Whigs were playing the Houston gig, as they put on one of our favorite shows of the year so far. Oh well, KOL are enough to get me out to the Verizon in late October, even if there are whole bunch of great concerts in town that week.
