They are a very good new band! I've just started listening to their stuff, too. Really good stuff!

I like them. I first became aware of them almost 8 years ago when I saw the video of Read My Mind. They are a very talented group.

Not really my cup of tea, I tried. For me they sound like corporate rock, just not enough soul. The Uncle Jonny tune was the best of the bunch. But it does sound like we may have identified a guitar player who was influenced by The Edge.eye popping smiley

The Vevo association turns me off too, way to many botted views. I mean the non Vevo video of a better song, imo, released about the same time has 116,000 views while the Vevo video has over 39,000,000 views?

peace

If you mean the movie "The Killers" (USA-1964) with the ubercool Lee Marvin and Ronald Reagan as the villain... Yeah! I like it!smoking smiley

I like The Killer, singular, as in Jerry Lee Lewis

I have two of their albums. But they're not as good as they think they are. I mean, I play guitar and sing Mr. Brightside and the melody is so limited it's almost like singing a rap song. That's not great songwriting.

They don't offend me. Some of what I've heard kind of reminds me of Springsteen on an off day. My goddaughter likes them plenty.

Sorry in advance... completely besides the point, I know; but I just couldn't resist. (Still a bit floating in these New Year's hooligan spheres... smoking smiley )
Kills, Killers; tomato, tomatoe...
It's all here to enjoy. Enjoy!

They were championed by the likes of the NME at a time when I was particularly keen to follow the current alternative music scene. I bought their debut album, Hot Fuss, upon it's release in 2004-05 and remained a fan and follower up until their third album. I thought they were rather good a decade ago, but have lost interest. Brandon Flowers' solo album is quite enjoyable if I recall.

Classic film noir ... one of the greats of opening scenes
"better go around bright-boy" .... Burt Lancaster in
his debut film ... and as usual a smokin' hot Ava Gardner the
only chick who ever broke "Cranky" Franky's heart ......
