Those are some really good sleeping in car tips! Love how Jared says "pinnacle of comfort". Plus two of the best hairstyles ever seen! Great interview. If there's more to it then please post!
OH. MY. GOD. I have wanted to see this interview for YEARS! I read it like... man.. ages ago on your site and thought it was a radio interview or something... WOW this totally just made my day (and i didn't even search for it.. it just popped up on my main page). I can't believe this! This was from like... back in '05 or something. WOW. My mind is totally blown.
I don't understand why people can't just be happy with their success. Do you want them to stay underground and produce the same album over and over? You have to grow with a band.
Jared's only seventeen there, Jesus... I love these guys so much. They're changed a lot, but hell, I was ten when I started listeing to them (at Youth and Young Manhood) so I hope that I've changed too. Kings Forever.
James Daviam I kinda miss the rock n roll KOL . But I went and saw the last week and they did rock. So . They still have it. I could tell they were tired. Nashville was the last show. But they pulled it off great. One of the best bands out now.
Considering they've kept their sound but it became more commercial, so it's not selling out. If you'd listened to all of KoL and knew anything about music then you'd be able to see that
BTW.. why did you edit it down do much... you should have posted the full length interview it was hilarious. anyway.. still super happy that after years I've finally got to see this interview. MAN. x (this might even be from '04 never mind '05)... GAH
Lots of haters on here. I was a music snob and wrote them off after their first two albums. I look back and see my closed-mindedness and realize how fucking great the KoL really are. Only true song I despise is “Sex On Fire”. Great rock n roll band.
Is it me or does ales turner from the arctic monkeys new hair style look exactly lik jareds in the interview and also if u look at caleb in the on call video and the at tom from kasabian his new style they look strangley alike. x i fink every1 is copyin their style :)
"who are you to say who they are " a fan of the old kings. I never criticized any artists before, I love kings of leon, but MY opinion is that, I think, kol actually do music that MTV wants. Theur new album doesn't sound like the KOL I met. It's MY opinion and don't criticize me idiot, 'cause I respect your opinion too
growing doesn't mean you have to sell out and make a slightly edgier version of pop music. they're not even attempting to be artists anymore, they're simply just trying to write material that they think will be mainstream. i don't dislike bands just because they become mainstream, i dislike bands who become mainstream at the expense of creating good music (art). now they just look like a group of transgender people.
That was actually a rather helpful tip on sleeping in cars.
"we're heavily inspired by porn"
and song about sex becomes their biggest hit...
And now now hey hey
This looks so fuckn' vintage
this must be around 2003
@@Akatosh86 i miss the fuzz of cameras before 2010
The real deal in a different time
Hipsters can do that
It's crazy that the Kings of Leon once were considered one of the big hopes of the 00s garage rock revival.
Definitely changed. Still listening to their music though
They're crazily underrated. They're the Southern Interpol to me.
@@zackzallie8735how so?
This interview is real refreshing. Cool that this was done back in the day
2:27 👄👀🙊🤐
Jared was 17 and was the bassist for KOL, im 17 and im a student....
Most people aren't the bassist of Kings of Leon at the age of 17
He was living in a car tho
@@luizspindola now a castle probably
How about now?
woah jared was SEVENTEEN and being interviewed by nardwuar. what the hell
So, crazier than that, he was 17 and touring Europe.
Crazier than that is he admitted that he did not know how to play bass.
1:57 you can see his face light up when Nard mentioned Andy Griffiths 😄
Those are some really good sleeping in car tips! Love how Jared says "pinnacle of comfort". Plus two of the best hairstyles ever seen! Great interview. If there's more to it then please post!

i just love the way jared is looking at caleb and chewing his gum, don´t no why actually but i like it :D

Haha these guys are actually really funny in person, its pretty cool how they just played along with that nutter

Thanks so much for posting this. I've read the transcript and hoped the video was still around.
man what happened to KOL's sound over the years???
2006: "The way that we are, we've kind of always done the opposite of what everyone wants and y'know, what everyone thinks".
2016: Sellouts...
everyone wanted them not to "sell out"...
they're adults. probably doing what they want
James Daviam I kinda miss the rock n roll KOL . But I went and saw the last week and they did rock. So . They still have it. I could tell they were tired. Nashville was the last show. But they pulled it off great. One of the best bands out now.
They're as great as ever
Considering they've kept their sound but it became more commercial, so it's not selling out. If you'd listened to all of KoL and knew anything about music then you'd be able to see that
my hooptie! lesser known sir mix-a-lot gem! nardwuar, yet again, dropping quality references of music history.
back when they were cool
Jared was and still is hilarious!
this is a hell funny interview
I love how they actually give advice for sleeping in cars. haha.
I just found my favorite KOL interview
This is amazing. Didn't know this existed til seeing their post on instagram about it today lol
i didn’t know that this interview exists, super cool man
if you google it you can read the whple thing but im pretty sure there's no full video :(
I got the tickets boys!! See you in Toronto Oct 1st!!!! Woot!!!
Great band ❤️
Oh my God, I want 17 year-old Jared. UNF.
He was so effing adorable ;)
First interview where Nard looks like one of the band.
well Caleb my brother sorry to break it to you but you still look damn handsome with the moustache
so charming lol
is it weird that i'm straight and caleb's voice is getting me excited?
Adorable, hilarious, and innocent (mostly) :)
The first two Kings of Leon albums were great, after that it slowly went downhill
OMG, fuck off
*first three
my hooptie!!!
this is my favourite interview. and jared is 17 here? wow he is beautiful!
Nardwuar's site says it was in '03
I am also heavily inspired by porno.
No, Jared is 17here, because when they released their first record he was 16.
Caleb has to be the coolest mf to ever exist
That was frickin hilarious
They are so different now.
Love the scarf
Damn, they’ve come a LONG way.
Absolute gold!!
I love this so much, Oh Jared ♥
BTW.. why did you edit it down do much... you should have posted the full length interview it was hilarious. anyway.. still super happy that after years I've finally got to see this interview. MAN. x (this might even be from '04 never mind '05)... GAH
this is the real kings of leon. the kings of leon of today is NOT kings of leon
Haha I love Jared in this and he's only 17 aww!!
Man I wish they were still like this, but then again, money is money
I wanna be interviewed by Nardwuar but no one wants to start a band with me
Lots of haters on here. I was a music snob and wrote them off after their first two albums. I look back and see my closed-mindedness and realize how fucking great the KoL really are. Only true song I despise is “Sex On Fire”. Great rock n roll band.
they're so stoned. :awesome:
Jared was a lil babyyy
Funny! Great interviewer.
damn how long is this?
LOVE IT
circa 2003
That tip about starting to sleep in the most uncomfortable position is honestly genius
holy shit this is a long time ago
holy hell have they changed. wonder what they'll say now watching this.
Those bangs were a terrible idea.
2:08 he looks cuuuteee!!!
The right word is 'genius'.
back when Kings Of Leon didn't suck
Everyone's unhappy with their success because they changed their sound with the success,
woah, jared is gorgeous.
since when have they been underground?
I think it's fair to expect musical growth instead of regression.
IIIIIIIII I'LL NEVER BE A POOOORNSTAAR
Kings of Leon, Pyro (latin for 🔥)
The Staches and 60's 😊
Sooooo young(:
This is classic.
Jared is wearing an OSU shirt.
I dont have a problem with bands growing, I just dont like shitty music.
They look so old for their age.
Is it me or does ales turner from the arctic monkeys new hair style look exactly lik jareds in the interview and also if u look at caleb in the on call video and the at tom from kasabian his new style they look strangley alike. x i fink every1 is copyin their style :)
Back when Caleb didn't look like Jack Penate........
TEH PINNACLE OF COMFORT
I'd quite like them to produce classic rock n roll standards over and over
Man have they changed lol
My God they've changed so much!
Wasn't Jared actually 15 here or something?
.......wow thats an interesting mic there LMAOOOOOOO!!!! u can even see them try to move their heads back lmaooo gonna poke someone's eye out
when was this interview?
@Drex89 ironically, them having a clothing line is the opposite of what everyone wants...
omg! how old is this haha
awesome car sleeping pro tip
its the dude from Foxy Shazam!!!
hahha my hoopty! funny interview.
"We are very inspired by porno" you bet
Porno days killed the moustache
Yeah Circa 1973...lol
"who are you to say who they are " a fan of the old kings. I never criticized any artists before, I love kings of leon, but MY opinion is that, I think, kol actually do music that MTV wants.

Nice
by 'bad' you mean 'fucking awesome and hot'?
Geenday
truth.
growing doesn't mean you have to sell out and make a slightly edgier version of pop music. they're not even attempting to be artists anymore, they're simply just trying to write material that they think will be mainstream. i don't dislike bands just because they become mainstream, i dislike bands who become mainstream at the expense of creating good music (art). now they just look like a group of transgender people.
