Kings of Leon is an old fashioned Southern Rock band made up of three brothers and a cousin, all from Mount Juliet, Tennessee. Their name is derived from the brothers' father, a Pentecostal evangelist. Thus their musical roots stem from playing in churches and their influences range the musical and social spectrum. They got their start with their album Youth and Young Manhood and rose to relative stardom by being chosen by the popular rock band The Strokes to tour with them. Standout tracks include the erotic "Molly's Chambers" and soulful "California Waiting". Their second album Aha Shake Heartbreak was released in the UK in October 2004 to widespread acclaim. The album was acclaimed for its mix of fast rocking guitar and bass riffs. "The Bucket", "4 Kicks" and "King of the Rodeo" released as singles thus far. Aha Shake Heartbreak was released on February 22, 2005 in the United States.
