Kings of Leon in marital spat
Submitted by imaginary char on July 11, 2007.Nathan Followill (drummer of Kings of Leon) proposed to his girlfriend... and his bandmates are not happy. In fact, they're worried about the future of the band. Did I mention that one of the band members is Nathan's brother?
"If he doesn't get a pre-nuptual agreement, he's an idiot," Nathan's brother and frontman Caleb Followill told The Independent.
"Me and him have a lot invested in each other," he continued. "We started this band. We bought land and houses together. We've been best friends since we were little biddy boys. I don't want him to make mistakes. We have friends in bands who are married and their songs start being watered-down because they're all about the same girl."
Nathan countered his brother's comments by saying: "Look at Bono--he's been married his whole career. It's different for me than it is for Caleb, I'm pushing 30. It's always hard when big brother starts devoting time to a girl that would normally be devoted to little brother."
What do you think, is Caleb being ridiculous?

From wikipedia:
Codependence (or codependency) is a popular psychology concept popularized by Twelve-Step program advocates. A "codependent" is loosely defined as someone who exhibits too much, and often inappropriate, caring for persons who depend on him or her.

I'm still behind Because of the Times, it's no Aha Shake Heartbreak, but it aint bad. The piece that scares me is the reference to Bono, if KOL start sounding like U2 they'll take craptacular to a whole new level.

Sounds to me like Kings of Leon already released a craptacular record this year, so Caleb can suck it. Back and forth.
