Are Kings of Leon making an ELO reference? Probably not - but it's a great song.

doubled up drums
the guitars about 30 sec are like the Wilburys strumming through a Lynne chord progression
the vocoder kicks in at about 1:05
the Tandyesque keys at around 1:25
just keep building layer after layer

Jeff would give this 2 thumbs up!

The vocal is nothing like him.

Yeah, I guess they just wanted readers to imagine Elvis shaking his fringe in front of the 7 piece ELO set up. Maybe add in a robot wheeling around stage. Nothing to do with the vocalist. Boy she’s overdone the tats. Nice voice though.

into the way back machine, this band formed in 1967 and has an Idle Race quality
I'd never heard of them, but Thomas Walsh mentioned them when talking about his record collection. So down a rabbit hole I go.
