The Killers & their new album

i'm looking forward to the Killers new album which is released next week
but i am very disappointed in the 1st single "when you were young"
their debut album Hot Fuss was excellent and i was hoping that their 2nd album would be even better but i hear they have gotten away from the 80's new wave sound they had on Hot Fuss..i dont know why they would get away from a formula that worked so well especially after the album selling 3 million copies but hopefully the 1st single is not an indication of how the rest of the album will be
Check it out ...Shiny Toy Guns R gonna blowup VERY soon and bring melody back to music..you heard it here 1st! http://www.myspacecomment...theone.mp3

I reconize the name of the band from watching late night videos. That's often a sign I'm liking what I'm hearing.

Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

I actually like their new single more than anything else I've heard by them so far.

Rolling Stone pans their new album, which is probably a good thing actually. lol

I read that. But they seem to have a problem with The Killers taking themselves seriously.

The thing is, their songs have had a little more emotion each time, and I appreciate that. The new one totally gets me.

I never thought I'd be saying this, because I hated them SO much when they first came out.

got a hold of the album yesterday- not as immediately catchy as "hot fuss", but its a more musically sound (no pun intended) album. definitely a grower.

Even that reeks of corporate cock!



I can't wait for this, the new Beck and Scissor Sisters. I'll write my own review after I've had a month to absorb the new music.

I thought Rolling Stone only gave everyone 3 starstarstar to everyone these days, not matter what or who it is. lol

I just don't get the hype over the Scissor Sisters. disbelief I remember hearing one of their videos playing in the other room, and I had go run in and change the channel as fast as possible because I hated the song so much. Such cheese. shake And not in a cool way either.

when bands like the Killers and Scissor Sisters do great with their debut, there is usually hype for the second release.....too bad both of them suck....but it figures

I don't know, to me my only internal hype is that both of their initial albums were refreshing but the second one is always the test. I understand that their going into a vaudville direction now but I've yet to spend the time to listen to the whole album.

Oh yeah, Los Lobos has a new album out too that is on my must get list.

I actually have "Hot Fuss". This girl got it for me, for some reason, thinking I would dig it. It was alright. Ain't no shit I would play in my ride though. And if I don't want to play it in my car, then,...
