«WALLS», the new Kings of Leon album now on sale

WALLS Kings of Leon

Kings of Leon, the band of the brothers (and cousins) Followill have a new album for sale: 'WALLS' (We Are Like Love Songs). This is the first since 'Mechanical Bull' (2013) and the seventh studio album from his discography.

'WALLS' has been recorded in Los Angeles and has been produced by Markus Dravs, known for his collaborations with important figures such as Florence & The Machine, Arcade Fire, Coldplay and Björk. The members of the group, Caleb (guitar / vocals), Nathan (drums), Jared (bass) and Matthew Followill (guitar) told the press that at the beginning of the year (2016) they temporarily moved to Los Angeles to record there (as they did it previously in their first two works) and then decided to sign Dravs to collaborate with the production.

The first single released was 'Waste a moment' in early September, followed by 'WALLS' and 'Around the world' in recent weeks. The band members described the new album as a more personal and daring work than their previous albums. In the different songs of 'WALLS' they have decided to tell personal stories such as Caleb Followill's addiction to alcohol ('Over') and episodes of his relationship with his wife, model Lily Aldridge.

To compose 'Find me' Caleb revealed that he was inspired by his wife Lily. She details an experience she had in a hotel in Los Angeles, when she felt as if she were enchanted and that, although when she told it it seemed like a chilling story, she later decided to compose a love song with the story. Nathan also pointed out that the group's goal was to get out of their comfort zone creatively with 'WALLS': “We knew exactly how we wanted this album to sound. We had a detailed plan of our goal. It had to sound different, especially with respect to the last two albums ».

Released by RCA Records, the new album 'WALLS' contains 11 unreleased songs and has been on sale since last Friday (14).
