Once the party dies down, Kings of Leon will move into release day, Tuesday, September 23rd, with a performance on the Late Show with David Letterman as well as an exclusive sold-out club date at New York's Webster Hall later that evening.

Kings of Leon will be arriving in America after spending several weeks in the UK, where the new single, "Sex on Fire," has debuted at #1. This is the band's first #1 single in that country. The North American tour begins October 11 at The Joint in Las Vegas, NV. On October 14, the band will appear on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

Only By The Night was recorded at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, TN, and was produced by Angelo Petraglia and Jacquire King. It is a bold and expansive sonic statement that looks set to solidify Kings of Leon's position as one of the most important international acts of 2008 and beyond.
