Kings of Leon

With their unique blend of raw garage meets Southern rock, Kings of Leon stormed onto the music scene with their debut album, Youth and Young Manhood, for which Rolling Stone gave a rare four stars and NME called, "One of the best debut albums of the last 10 years." Their sophomore release, Aha Shake Heartbreak, has already wowed listeners in the UK where it has been released, prompting the London Times to name Kings of Leon "perhaps the finest American band of this decade." Aha Shake Heartbreak will be released in the U.S. on February 22. —JB
