Following their New Year's Eve show in Nashville, Nathan Followill said that the band was aiming to release its seventh album in 2016: "We've already started pre-production in our studio for the next record, but the main thing on the calendar for 2016 is getting the record finished.
And then the whole press machine kicks up and doing press for the record."
Caleb added: "We enjoy this part of the process.
Obviously there's a lot of work that goes into it and it can get stressful at times, but we're all in a good place and we're having fun with it and we're all excited to do something new."
The album was stated to be likely to be recorded in Los Angeles, with Caleb saying the band were looking for inspiration: "We might just try to get a little change of scenery.
Our first two albums we recorded in L.A., so we're going to try to go back and see if it inspires us," he said. "
If it doesn't, we always have a studio at home, so we can always come back."

In August, the band announced that album title would be We Are Like Love Songs (Walls), and that it would be released October 14, 2016.
The first single from the album, "Waste a Moment", was released on September 9, 2016.
The album went on to reached No.
1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Their seventh album, Walls was the first album that Kings of Leon have earned their No.
1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Walls moved 77,000 album units by the end of the week ending October 20.

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of Only By The Night, the band released a never-before-seen video containing behind the scenes footage of the recording of the album, serving as a video for "Frontier City", which was originally a B-side to the album.
Later that year, marking the 15th anniversary of Aha Shake Heartbreak, the song "Where Nobody Knows", another B-Side, was made available digitally for the first time.

On March 31, 2020, the band released its first new song in more than three years, "Going Nowhere," through YouTube and various social media platforms.
