I saw the kings in a little 1000 person venue and they were amazing. This was just after their latest album had come out and they blew the crowd away. There style is one of a kind and I predict they will be the next "coolest band," after the strokes.

yeah i saw them at a festival in England a few years ago and although there were about 70,000 people there and i was near the middle and the wind was blowing the sound all over the place, they still sounded great!
