Chart Attack! ...um, Attacks

Poor Kings of Leon. I wondered if they really did peak with Because of the Times.

Halfway through the album is also the point where you realize Come Around Sundown is simply too long. Right when you're thinking it's going to end, it just keeps going, becoming as worn out as the elastic on a really, really stretched pair of sweat pants. This makes it a curious contradiction; one would think it would be impossible to make an album that sounded completely thin, but looks dense in terms of its length. But Kings Of Leon have seemingly done the impossible here.

Ouch.
