Really I do not know ...

... How to evaluate this album. On the one hand I have been a long-time COL pendant totally keen on new material of 4 Followills when the album finally was in my player, I was blown away and happy to hear the Kings so. They sound as if they had made namely an album exactly according to your taste. They sound as if they were completely happy with it. It really is nice for them.
However, they have made it a little too easy, in my opinion. On their earlier albums' Aha Shake Heartbreak "and" Because of the Times "enough" Come Around Sundown "by no means ran, trotzdme it is a thousand times better than" only by the night ".
Here and there flashed on the old typical COL elements, but that was about it. Unquestionably, guitarist Matthew Followill one of the most talented in his field, but my goodness, where all his Genialne solos of yesteryear are go?!? On "CAS" found fewer than 2 real guitar solos, on the one hand a brilliant in "Mary" and a quite steigerbares in "No Money". The rest of the songs Matt spends unfortunately with indeed catchy, but hingedudelten melodies that every guitar riff beginners with a little practice. His solos on the first 3 albums were absolutely amazing, unfortunately, he seems now too much to rely on his pedal board on which he diligently around occurs when playing live.
All in all the songs on the album well, there are quite a few of my favorite songs among these 13, but man, these guys have it sooo much more than that! One of the best songs on the album is the bonus track "Celebration", a typical KOL title as it appears in the book and the memories cause "of previously".

Just Live have but very neglected the Kings. It seems today almost as if they were ashamed of songs from their first albums, to set lists are found to min. 70% songs of the past two successful albums and the rest seems to be "mandatory program" and the older songs on the setlist are hardly varies. Too bad, because the very reason that they are not as the action-packed Burner are live (which does not mean that they do not sound live absolutely great!) Would make a couple of guitar solos from ancient times for more hair shaking. Well, the most beautiful is for the band well anyway the moment when the crowd freaks out in "Sex on Fire". Who's like. I miss the old Kings, even if the new songs are also ok.
