I'm not one of the Kings of Leon haters here; "Because of the Times" made my top ten last year. But the new album just isn't that good, and now I've seen it at No. 1 on two lists already.
Pretty weak list, though it's nice to finally see Erykah Badu on a list.
I might like Kings of Leon more, but angry teenage half-understandings of politics have started to really annoy me. It's like they're the stereotype political candidates are always trying to associate me with.
Henrik, ever decide what to do with those past amazon.com lists? I have them saved on my hard drive (the 60s-1998 or so)- I don't think they're on the amaozn Web site any longer.
