December 13, 200817 yr at least when the killers take on a concept or idea for an album they stick to it. unlike coldplay who tried to shove 5 concepts into the one album. i think Day & Age is a superior album to Viva La Vida simply for that reason.
December 13, 200817 yr Oh, I thought this thread was for Ted Bundy and Michale Myers and such... JK So for someone who has not listened to any Killers, what would be good songs to start with?
December 13, 200817 yr ^When you were young, read my mind, all these things that I've done, and bones are my suggestions...
December 13, 200817 yr I love the Killers. I don't care that sometimes their music is all over the place. I can understand why this is a band that may get hammered by critics, but I don't care. I almost don't want to over analyze it or I may stop liking it...it's just fun music. And for those of you who like Coldplay because they are a good bunch of guys, The Killers are their equals. Really cool and down to earth. And they are great live. I have already heard Spaceman, Human, Neon Tiger and Losing Touch live...good stuff.
December 13, 200817 yr Just got back from a killer (pun intended) show from The Killers tonight. Was about second row on the floor and it was just absolutely magical. I saw them last night at Not So Silent Night (along with Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand) and was literally in the last row of the arena for that, so this was a pretty good upgrade tonight. Definitely one of the best shows I've seen. So much energy. And All These Things That I've Done is just...breathtaking. Also, in a side note, if you like The Killers, check out NEON TREES. They opened tonight and were absolutely incredible as well. Tons of energy. I think they're going to make it big pretty soon.
December 13, 200817 yr My fave Killers album was Sam's Town!, I don't know why, alot of bands that happens with, i think second album is best like Kaiser Chiefs and Coldplay (Until Viva)... Day and Age is a dissapointment but Spaceman could be HUGE!
December 14, 200817 yr got my tickets in the mail for the Jan 28th show in VA... Woohoo! how awesome!! you see them a WEEK before i do!! :)
December 14, 200817 yr Oooh, yay! I get to be the horrible conformist who loves "Read My Mind" best! Seriously, I loved it before it was a radio-whored single. Oh, I love "Read my Mind." Had no clue it was radio-whored though. I don't have a radio in my car, and I gave my boombox to my sister, who's away at her college. The video for this song is great, loooooooove it!
December 14, 200817 yr Read My Mind. I think Brandon also said it was the best song the Killers ever wrote (this comment was made pre Day and Age, so I don't know if that has changed).
December 15, 200817 yr the killers set at KROQ almost acoustic will be webcast at 9:15PM Los Angeles time. http://www.kroq.com.
December 15, 200817 yr Oh, I love "Read my Mind." Had no clue it was radio-whored though. I don't have a radio in my car, and I gave my boombox to my sister, who's away at her college. Well, that was mostly before "Human" hit the airwaves, which I hear hourly in a similar fashion now. Maybe it's just my local station that had a fixation with it for almost two years, though I still hear it occasionally.
December 20, 200817 yr All These Things I've Done or Human... or.... Uncle Jonny (I love the lyrics in that one)
December 20, 200817 yr Favourite song is Human As it gives me an excuse to post this [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U58HAK0KUGg]YouTube - The Killers Human EMA 08[/ame]
