Kings of Leon - Because of The Times album cover | |||||||||||||||
Because of the Times is the third album of Kings of Leon. Because of the Times was released on March 30, 2007 by Hand Me Down. The album has been regarded favourably in critics' reviews, and it became the band's first number one album in the United Kingdom.
NME announced the band were working on a new album in March 2006. Lead singer Caleb Followill said, "These songs are so much bigger, this band is so much better. There was a growth that people thought they heard on 'Aha Shake Heartbreak' from 'Youth And Young Manhood', but there's no comparison this time out. I think it's pretty evident when people hear it." The title refers to a large UPC ministers conference held in Alexandria, Louisiana that the brothers attended often. Moreover, lead singer Caleb Followill has said the title comes from the saying that if an album does well it's "Because of the Times" or if it bombs, it's "Because of the Times." The first single, "On Call", was initially released for purchase on 6 February, 2007 from iTunes. It was then released by retailers on March 26, 2007 where it reached number 18 in the UK Singles Chart. The album debuted at number 25 on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling about 42,000 copies in its first week. Track listing: All songs written by Kings of Leon. 1. "Knocked Up" – 7:10 2.
