Aha Shake Heartbreak is the second studio album by American rock band Kings of Leon. It was released in November 2004 in the UK and February 2005 in the United States. It's the only album by Kings of Leon to have a Parental Advisory.
Release Info:

The album was met with generally favourable reviews, with a Metacritic score of 74. When speaking about the album, the band remarked "if Youth and Young Manhood was the party, Aha Shake Heartbreak is the hangover."

The Bucket," "Four Kicks" and "King of the Rodeo" were released as singles in the UK.

The original version of the album featured a white background and an orchid, the second featured a black cover with a different kind of orchid. The second also contained the bonus track "Where Nobody Knows," and on both albums the flower is positioned in a suggestively sexual position.

The title of the album comes from the third track, "Taper Jean Girl."

There is also a photo, hidden underneath the white plastic of the second black cover, of the band as children.

The album was certified 2x Platinum in Australia on the 12th of January, 2009. The album has sold more than 910,000 copies worldwide and was ranked #39 on Rolling Stone's Top 100 Albums of the Decade.
