Kings of Leon have a backstory so steeped in rock mythology that it almost sounds made up. The Followill brothers are sons of a preacher and were raised on the road throughout the South. After being shattered by a divorce, the brothers were transformed by illicit substances and the music of Led Zeppelin. Soon, they were a rough and ready band, enjoying the pleasures of the road while playing grinding jams tinged with Southern rock and gothic lyrics. By the end of the 2000s, they were famous. The group's debut EP, Holy Roller Novocaine, and LP, Youth and Young Manhood, were released in 2003. The British press hailed the Kings as the second coming of rock. The group's second album, Aha Shake Heartbreak, debuted at number three. Because of the Times was released in 2007 and debuted at number one in the UK. In 2008, the Kings released Only by the Night. The single from the album "Use Somebody" reached number four. They picked up their first Grammy for "Sex on Fire" in 2009. The album Come Around Sundown was next followed Mechanical Bull in 2013. Their seventh album WALLS debuted at #1 in the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, Ireland and Austria. They have seven Grammy Nominations, four Grammy Award wins, three NME Awards, two Brit Awards and a Juno Award. They have toured all over the world, selling out top venues and headlining major festivals such as Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits and Glastonbury.
