Released on May 10, 2024, Can We Please Have Fun is the ninth studio album by the Nashville rock outfit Kings of Leon. Produced by Kid Harpoon, known for his work with Harry Styles and Miley Cyrus, the record marks a departure from their long-standing tenure with RCA Records, debuting instead under Capitol Records.
For nearly two decades, Kings of Leon have carried the weight of expectation. Emerging from the Nashville garage rock scene in the early 2000s with the raw, whiskey-soaked Youth & Young Manhood, they accidentally became arena rock deities with the release of Only by the Night (2008).

As they sat around the fire, swapping stories and making memories, Max realized that this was what it meant to be young and carefree.

If you loved Aha Shake Heartbreak’s grit but also appreciate the maturity of Walls, this album sits perfectly in between. It’s not trying to be Sex on Fire part two — it’s better. It’s them having fun, and inviting us along for the ride.

With their ninth studio album, Can We Please Have Fun, Kings of Leon deliver a record that lives up to its title by stripping back the polished arena-rock sheen of their last few releases in favor of raw energy and garage-rock immediacy. Produced by new collaborator Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles, Florence + The Machine), the album finds the Followill brothers sounding reinvigorated, effectively bridging the gap between their Southern rock roots and their anthemic pop sensibilities.
