In September 2008, the release of Only by the Night propelled Kings of Leon to new heights in the United States. The album featured chart-topping singles such as 'Sex on Fire', 'Use Somebody', and 'Notion', all of which dominated the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart. This album became their first platinum-selling record in the U.S. and was recognized as the best-selling album of 2008 in Australia, achieving platinum certification nine times.
