Kings of Leon Announce Remix Album

text: Chris Barth

The Kings of Leon, fresh off a successful album release and tour, are up to do it all over again. This time, however, they’re letting other parties do the work, as they ready a remix album for release. The idea, drummer Nathan Followill told Billboard.com, was inspired by remixes done by Justin Timberlake and Pharrell Williams (of the Neptunes). The band supported the idea of a full album of remixes, excited to be sought for collaboration by “people we would have jumped at the chance to work with ourselves.” A tracklist has yet to be released, but artists who are reportedly involved include Mark Ronson, Pharrell, Timberlake, Kenna, Lykke Li, and Linkin Park.

    They would have jumped at the chance to work with Linkin Park? This is fine news, nonetheless.

    Truthfully i can not bring myself to listen to this band. I know they have their successful single “use somebody.” But for some reason I feel like i would be selling out by even downloading one song by them. Are they worth it?

    Oh no no no, please let this be a joke, OBtN was bad enough without Linkin Park adding their own brand of shit to it. Why KOL? Why? Your first three albums were so awesome, what happened to you?

“Mindkilla” is awesome. I’ve got this music video last week and really impressed through watching every performance particularly “Glass Jar”. Thanks dude. :)
