The Killers

The Killers’ music never sounded particularly dangerous to me, lots of angst and "woe, she left me" - nothing like what I expected just from their name. So this selection, heard by me for the first time today on Sirius Satellite Radio, was a pleasant surprise; I was IMPRESSED. My daughter and I decided to buy the album, but I couldn’t wait. This evening, I did a little research and discovered that it’s a collaboration with Lou Reed, and all was explained. Hope you en... MORE

Christmas with a twist. The Killers released this recently for the Christmas season. Quite funny.

Ahhh, it feels good to be excited about The Killers again. Even its only because a b-side release proves that their old stuff is better than the Sam's Town accident. Shame on whatever producer convinced Brandon Flowers and co. to move away from the sleazy-melancholy and glitzy synth rock that made Hot Fuzz so memorable. Thankfully, the gems on Sawdust weren't locked away in the vaults for too long for me to lose hope. But there's more here than just Hot Fuzz-ish neo pos... MORE

If David Bowie had an illegitimate bastard and sent it to be raised by Vikings, then this little bastard started a band with a 17 year-old Dungeons and Dragons enthusiast, a coyote, and a disgruntled former member of The Strokes, they might produce an album similar to Sawdust, the newest offspring of The Killers. Sawdust has 18 songs, some of which you may have heard versions of elsewhere, as they do a covers of Joy Division’s “Shadowplay,” and Kenny Rogers and the First E... MORE

Racey daysHelp me through the hopeless hazeBut my oh myTragic eyesI can't even recognise myself behindSo if the answer is noCan I change your mind? Out again, a siren screams at half past tenAnd you won't let goWhile I ignore, that we both felt like thisBefore it starts to showSo if I had a chanceWould you let me know Why aren't you shakingStep back in timeGraciously takingOh your too kind And if the answer is noCan I change your mind? We're all the sameAnd love is... MORE

This song for some reason relives me when I'm really stressed out. Currently, exams.

Indie Rock and Roll is the gretest thing ever to come out of our mouths... apart from everything else...

I've never done this before (as far as I know), so I think it is high time that I do something. I am creating a Top 20 albums of 2007 list (I tried top 10, but just couldn't do it), but in a different way. It is not a Top 20 list of albums that came out this year, but the Top 20 albums that I have heard this year, regardless of when the albums actually came out. Yes, some of the albums did come out this year. Probably most of them , actually. But it only makes sense t... MORE

Last Killers post....You will not find this song on Sawdust. I dont know when it was recorded. I dont even know how to describe it really. With lyrics like: now were friends, say goodbye I think there's something in my eye Brandon has come a long way!
