Production and recording history

edit

In September 2007, lead singer Caleb Followill confirmed to NME that tracks were already being worked on for a fourth album,[7] only a few days after the release of the band's third album, Because of the Times. Recording began in February 2008 in Nashville's Blackbird Studios with assistant engineer, Lowell Reynolds. According to producer Jacquire King, the live performances of the main parts of each song were recorded onto 16-track analog tape and later transferred to a Pro Tools system for overdubbing and mixing.[8] On June 23, 2008, the release date of September 22, 2008 was set and the new title was announced.

Release

edit

"Crawl" was released via the band's website as a free download for a short time, although it was not the first proper single. The first single "Sex on Fire," was released September 15, 2008. The same day, music website Last.fm was the first to make the entire album available for streaming.[9] The music video for "Sex on Fire" was later made available to stream on their website and YouTube channel. The song "Use Somebody" was announced as the second single and released in October 2008. The song was a massive hit, peaking at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, number 2 in the United Kingdom, and performing well in Australia and several other countries. The third single from the album was "Revelry," released March 2, 2009.

"Notion" is the fourth single from the album. The video was released on June 1 and the song appeared on radio on June 29.[10] The song was another success for the group, peaking at #1 on the Billboard Alternative Songs.

In Australia, the song "Manhattan" was released to radio as another single. The song spent four weeks on the singles chart and peaked at number 38[11] and reached number two on the National Airplay Chart.[12] The song has also had heavy rotation on UK radio stations such as Xfm. Another fan favorite was the album's opening track "Closer," which features a three note riff by bass player Jared Followill that utilises a Boss ME50 multi-effects pedal to add a distinctive octave sweep reminiscent of the DigiTech Whammy.[13]
