[source: NME.com] Ryan Adams has an unlikely fan in horror author Stephen King. In a statement written by King about Adams' new album Easy Tiger, the horror author praised the singer-songwriter. "I won't say Adams is the best North American singer songwriter since Neil Young… but I won't say he isn't either," King said. "What I know is there has never been a Ryan Adams record quite as strong and together as Easy Tiger." "I mentioned [to him] how prolific he was, aware that I might be touching a sore point. After all, there are plenty of critics who seem to think that's a bad thing. Adams, however, just laughs."
