Query: Because of Something.....this one stinks

Let me start off by saying I love the Kings of Leon. In fact they are my favorite band. Their first two albums rocked. Both are 5 stars in my book. In addition, in concert these guys take it to another level. For those reasons this reveiw hurts. Because of the Times is a giant disappointment. I am not sure what album some of the reveiwers listened to but this album is nowhere near 5 stars. Apparently Ethan Johns or one of the boys discovered the reverb machine recently because overproduced echoes litter each song. The first 4 songs are almost unlistenable--for some reason the Kings added high pitched guitars or screeches to some otherwise decent tunes. I keep hoping the Kings will break into the big time but this album wont do it. If youre going to emulate U2 atleast make it early U2 and not songs like "Lemon". Kings please lose the pretension and come back to Rock for your next album.
