After a hectic summer which saw them headline the Wireless and V festivals, the glorious foursome from Tennessee, Kings of Leon, are now ready to unveil their new baby. 'Come Around Sundown' is due out on 18th October, and like its award-winning tune-aplenty predecessor, 'Only by the Night', released in 2008, 'Come Around Sundown' was recorded under the guidance of the production pair, Angelo Petraglia and Jacquire King. It's now only a matter of a month-and-a-bit until we all have the chance to see (hear) whether this new opus outshines their previous efforts. In the meantime, the band premiere the video for the first single off the album, 'Radioactive', to be released on 11th October - just click the 'Play' icon, above. KOL will then flaunt their tunes and American dandyism on our shores during a series of dates in December: at Manchester Evening News Arena (13th), Sheffield Arena (14th and 19th), Birmingham National Indoor Arena (16th and 17th), and London O2 Arena on the 21st [hmm... just one London date? We'll see what happens once that one has sold-out... - Ed].

Pre-Christmas treat indeed! ...

Tickets go on sale this Friday (10th September) at 9AM, starting at £40 regionally, £55 for London (+fees).

Update: all gone!

All dates have now sold-out at face value. There were a few extras released in the afternoon, but they have now also all gone. We'll keep you posted if they add any extra dates...
