“If we were to go out there and play a concert and not play new music, it would feel like we had our hands tied, and I think we would be bored with the show,” frontman Caleb Followill
Kings of Leon has so far premiered four songs slated for the followup to 2008’s platinum and Grammy Award-winning “Only By the Night,” which have been identified with the working titles “Mary,” “Immortals,” “Radioactive” and “Southbound.” Nathan Followill said the group has been careful to choose “the ones we have together the best and feel the most comfortable playing,” but there’s the possibility that — with the band on the road until Sept. 23 in North America, plus a pair of V Festival performances Aug. 21-22 in the U.K. — more might make their way into the set lists.
