KINGS OF LEON are wicked. I'm a sucker for their music. How about the RAMONES? SEX PISTOLS? FRANK ZAPPA? WHITE ZOMBIE? INCORRIGIBLES?

Aaaaah, I'm talking too much. Pass the gaffer tape, Bert?

I shouldn’t be on this thread, ‘cos I live in the Middle-East, but your post came at the top of the page.
Kings of Leon have been favourites of mine for some time now. I introduced my three children to them. The two boys (15 & 13) love them. My girl (13) couldn’t care less.
I also like:
Citizen Cope
Los Lonely Boys
Subdudes

Any recommendations?

Well I am considered a 'muso' I listen to anything and everything - one thing I have learnt is never to be a snob about music. I am going to buy their other albums......looking on ebay now.

My taste is very varied.

Coldplay
Neil Finn
Def Leppard
going to see Simply Red (old stuff) next month here in Canberra and Cold Play in March in Sydney. On the brink of justification of buying tickets for Kings of Leon in Sydney in March......

Neil Finn; will look him/them up.
Simply Red; saw them in Dubai, but as they were about half-a-mile away (exaggerating) it wasn't so great (but, it was free!). Mick has/had a great voice. Although he had some good songs, I always thought that with the right lyricists/tunesmiths he could have reached Elvis/Sinatra status.

What about Blue Nile?
