Kings of Leon were the musical guest this past weekend on Saturday Night Live, hosted by actress Emma Stone. The band played two tracks (“Radioactive” and “Pyro”) off their recently released fifth studio album Come Around Sundown. The record has been named the highest selling in the UK for the first week of sales, but judging from these two cuts, it sounds like nothing new from the band and, in all honesty, they weren’t that special to begin with (in this reporter’s humble opinion). I guess a lot of hype and + southern drawl makes CDs fly out of the stores. Watch both performances below.
