Kings Of Leon; the necessary Nashville rockers that just won’t stop giving.
‘Reverend’ is the 4th stunner of a single to be released from their upcoming 7th record titled ‘WALLS’ which is set for release on 14th October.
The emotional track opens with slow melodic guitar tones but permeates classic Kings Of Leon vibes and showcases what everyone relishes about the band; the dusty American rock guitar paired with gripping lyricism and a late night drive ambiance. The track is definitely one to let go with.
In its entirety, the track gives a whole heap of hope for their next album – it is transparently clear that die-hard KOL fans won’t be disappointed. In my opinion, every single so far released from the upcoming album (including ‘Reverend’) doesn’t seem to differ that much from their previous 2013 release ‘Mechanical Bull’.
Have they played it too safe; are they just sticking to what they know they’re famous for to please their fans and somewhat be true to themselves? Maybe the full album release will showcase more variety? In all seriousness though, it’s a Kings Of Leon record, you know it’s gonna be worth your time and money!
