'THIS SEX IS ON FIRE'?! BEGPARDON?!?

-
By god, the new Kings of Leon stuff is just embarassingly shit isn't it?

People have been banging on for a while now about a certain strand of 'indie' guitar rock having become interchangeable with '80s MOR - the much-vaunted Razorlight/Dire Straits comparison being an example that springs readily to mind.

But 'Use Somebody' is to my ears actually worse, by some distance, than anything Dire Straits ever did.

In years to come we will look back on this kind of thing as a joke that got spectacularly out of hand.
