KOL Get Their MOJO

Hotties of rock Kings of Leon are in the latest issue of MOJO magazine. In the pages the boys talk about criticism they've strayed from their gritty southern fried original rock sound and sold out with more pop-oriented material, says Caleb;

"I've always been scared of songs being these big crossover hits. Like, with Use Somebody, I wrote the melody and all of us related to it, it felt like this big song, so I kinda pushed it under the rug. Then we were making Only By The Night and Matt kept saying, 'where's that song about using somebody?' I would act like I didn't know what he meant. I knew what he was talking about, but it scared me."

I love the entire Only By The Night album but I gotta say Use Somebody is not high on my rotation. Closer, I Want You, 17, Notion, and Manhattan get way more spins on my ipod. Closer and I Want You are particularly sexay if you're looking to add to your 'hit it' playlist.  Read more of the MOJO interview here;
