As yall know, the Kings of Leon 'crossed over', and have entered the realm of Nickelback fans + bros who are 'vibing' for their own sense of high-end consumer individuality. In their hit song "Use Somebody", they sing, "U know that I could use somebody...Some1 like u." Little did Americans + bros across the world know that we would rely on them so heavily in the decade of 2k10. Ever since the Strokes put their brand of 'cool' into hibernation, the Kings of Leon have built a generic, accessible brand of 'cool' that most bros can identify with.
Bros just want good music, that 'effing rocks', played by a group of manbros, showing off different combos of muscles + chest hair + innovative facial hair. Bros need bandBros who do 'kewl shit' on guitar, and the ideal lead singer must have a voice that 'gets you fucking jacked', but can also 'chill you out.' Some songs 'effing rock' but other 'are chill ditties that you can play at an open-air party where beer is chilled upon.' Kings of Leon seem to be perfect for bros. It is also beneficial that they are 'hot' according to mainstream broads so that bros+broads can have a common interest.
Feel happy that the KoL just launched their new 'fashion line.' I feel like it will really appeal to high-end consumer bros, possibly taking away sales from Ed Hardy. I am always fascinated by general consumer decisions by bros who were born into wealthy families, have never really had any real problems in their lives' besides 'fitting in' and 'banging hot girls who they though they deserved.' Feel like their insecurity really manifests itself when they overcompensate with high end bro fashion choices, and excessive early adoption to technology.
Decided to take a look at the Kings of Leon Fashion Line. Think this is actually 'high end shit', not mass produced to make mad walmart/target/pacsun/jcpenney sales [via Mary Kate+Ash 'Heath Killa' Olsens].
Bro Leather Jacket
Bro boots
Bro lil hat
Bro plaid lumberjacking shirt
Bro bandana
Bro designer jeans
Conceptual Plaid shirt 4 bros
Conceptual pocket tee
Braided bro belt
Which bro accessory do u think would help u become 'more than just another bro'?
Why do bros jones so hard 2 look like they are in 'rawk bands'?
Do u think the Kings of Leon will mix some rowdy synths+rapping into their next album so they can appeal to more Linkin Park fans?
Will bros continue to ruin music festivals in 2k10?
Do all bros share the common dream of 'ending up on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine'?
Should I just castrate myself, go to WalMart, and buy the Miley Cyrus Line?
Should I just buy the Merriweather Post Pavillion loafers designed by the Animal Collective design team?
Wish more bands had the vision to create a complete brand, instead of just selling 'lil tshirts'/miscellaneous generic merch like 'coffee mugs', mouse pads, and ballpoint pens.

@generk witty cmmnt, 'damn'
@generk witty cmmnt,
btw carles, think ur generalizing a lil too much about 'bros.' there are different species of bro.
for example:
dmb/natty ice bro
affliction/ufc bro
lacrosse/super mash bros bro
etc.
@generk witty cmmnt,
chill ultimate frisbee bros
wigger bros who watch basketball
economics major bros
first?
@chilisfan, feel like The King of Leons are in that class of bands like Foo Fighters and The Killers. Bands that aren't really terrible but are mainstream popular. Honestly would rather hear Use Somebody on the radio than Nickleback.
Think hating Kings of Leon is pretty 2k7.
w/e
@chilisfan,
Foo Fighters are'nt terrible? lolololololololoolololollolololololololololololololollolololololololololollolololololololololololololololololo
wait, you go on to say that you listen to the radio, LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLOLOL
you should only listen to podcasts featuring obscure cd-r labels
@Gregg G., i will murder you in your sleep tonight if you do not say chilisfan is authentic in at least 10 other comments. if you say it in 20 comments your crush's names will appear on your screen and tomorrow they will ask you! im serious this is so scary!
w/e bro
u don't understand my personal brand
of listening to top 40 pop (via the tom ewings)
& futurehop/aquacrunk/nite jewel
& early-mid 90s hip hop
DoNt TeLl mE hOw 2 B mYsElF bR0!!!~~~
@Gregg G., what about college radio?
@chilisfan, what is ur take on the STP???? they r ok sometimes
@b4hc, always get them confused with QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE which may or may not be a decent band.
thought that Eagles of Death Metal was 'fucking awesome' back when my personal brand involved drinking lots of five o'clock vodka out of plastic bottles and wearing headbands across my forehead.
miss u, 2k7.5
@b4hc,
i bet she is all " OMG SOOOOOO EXCITED THAT SOUNDGARDEN IS GETTING BACK 2GE+HER!!!111
Kris Kornell is such a babbbbbeeeee omg xD hehehe"
@chilisfan,
wish chilisfan never admitted to liking foo fighters/the killers
miss the days when chilisfan was authentic
miss u, pre-malstream chilisfan personal brand
@generk witty cmmnt, sigh
wish yall would realize that thinking something is not terrible isn't the same as liking it.
sad that i'm 'not accepted here' nemore.
sorry 2 let u down.
@chilisfan, that would be a good world! a listenable mainstream while us indies further push the envelope at the front lines. it would be a true altopia.
@chilisfan, way 'into' early-mid 90s hip-hop
@pinkusmuginkus, how do you feel about the pharcyde?
@chilisfan, fuck all the h8ers, chilisfan, I support the appreciation of occasional mainstream songs. all the alter-than-thous can suck some john mayer.
@chilisfan, don't be sad. I agree with karlheinz about how that WOULD be a good world/true altopia. I went to your tumblr to check out your personal brand and now I'm following you. That sounds creepy but I don't mean it in a creepy way.
Bros want it all
any of you out there who have been moved by tonight's message can have Leon come into yer <3 right now by praying this simple prayer of faith: Dear Kings of Leon, i confess i have sinned. I confess i have not conformed faithfully to the word of bro radness. Come into my life. Take my money. Plez make me a srslyradbro and make me commercially appealing to young women so that they will drink my brews and bang me into a healthy self-image. Thank you Leon. Plez put up yer hand if you prayed that prayer tonight...
@Preter, quick confesh: done the rull thing lyke 4 thymes in my lyf. r u 'post-youth group' bro?
"a pop icon and an influencer"

BANGER JACKETZZZ
@achillbro, faux banger jackets lol KOL just wish they could be that authentic
KOL totes ripped off the 'Justice' jacket. Jewstices clothing line looks 'badass' while this one looks like 'mediocre' copy cat shit.
Just can't wait till the the Jewstice album guys.
@luvyduvy, *the NEW justice album

This whole time I thought I was still hatin on nickelback.

@PepG, absolutely no lulz. I'm w. d00dz
@PepG, the 'd00dz' abides
@PepG, troll
i miss making fun of lookbook users, and slutty girls in bathrooms. kings of leon are just boring. Boring I say!
@ok ok, I miss "think pieces"
Fuckin' bro bands ruining music for us all. Think I might combat this trend - think I might band together with some alt bros (and/or keut alt skanks) and start a band. Might be the lead singer and sport Merriweather Post Pavilion shoes, an AmAppy Tri-Blend Deep-V, and AmAppy Mustard Slim Slacks (plus a handlebar mustache). Think my band will never sell out (via reaching a level of authenticity the Kings of Leon never dreamed of reaching via their minds being manipulated by the mnstrm),
Bro humour dead in 2010?
Its had a pretty good legacy 2007 - 20??
But seems like brodom really took off with the new wave
of bro movies, American Pie.
Only to be trumped by newer wave bro Movies by
Seth Rogan - Ft. Steve Correll.
No personality. So sad.
