Seit einigen Wochen steht das neue Album der Killers in den Plattenregalen. Als mehr oder weniger Fan der ersten Stunde interessiert mich doch immer wieder, was die Bands von früher so treiben…wenn es auch manchmal gar nicht mehr so ganz meinem Geschmack entspricht. Bei den Killers ist das definitiv anders und ich weiß gar nicht

Please forgive me hipsters for I have sinned, and I don’t think there is enough Hail William and Maries for me to repent this time. Let me start from the beginning, I like the Killers. Yes, the Killers. The Las Vegas pop band that came onto the scene with the 2004 album Hot Fuss . In working for a radio station, I get exposed to a lot of great and mostly underground music, but when I am alone in my room, you are way more likely to find me dancing around [...]

Sporting a typical rock band name with the trademark definite article, The Killers are a musical booster that reminds us that, as opposed to Marilyn Manson's claim, rock is not dead. These four stars and stripes boys, all Nevada natives, have been immerging us in delicious and pungeant soudnwaves since 2004 when their debut album was released with a bang. They havn't taken much time to take a breath ever since although the four years which followed the release of Day and Age in 2008 have been slightly longer than what we hoped. But naught is lost since the band [...]

Finally got around to spinning the KILLERS ' week-old new single, RUNAWAYS , which certainly ain't their most ground-breaking toon but got me in a jolz mood hearing they've almost returned to Sam's Town form.

If 20082s Day & Age saw The Killers try to slip back into their dancing shoes after the dirt and dust of the guitar heavy Sam's Town , then Runaways, the first single from fourth album Battle Born , is again the sound of a group taking an about turn. The photo says it all. Two of them are wearing leather jackets. The others, denim. The track opens very much like many of the tracks from Brandon Flowers's solo record before the whole thing lifts off into true bombast and Flowers swears [...]
I’m recording my own music these days and shaking some things in the background, so I’ve recently had to take my eye off any other excellent new rock music that’s making waves. So this post is a first attempt to try to catch up and see what’s shaking the rafters out there. I like what I hear below. Wish me luck for more! ----------- Dead Sara rocks it loud and proud with 'Weatherman'. The two gal, two guy band from LA hooks you [...]
America's favorite pseudo-indie Mormon rockers* The Killers released a new single yesterday.But you probably already knew that and have already disdissected this song every which way on your favorite
Depois de um albúm diferente daquilo a que estávamos habituados, como é o caso de Day & Age último disco dos The Killers, eis que quatro anos depois, Brandon Flowers e companhia surgem com “Runaways”, o primeiro single de Battle Born , o quarto ábum da banda. Este novo tema mistura a produção mais elaborada do Day & Age com influências notórias de Sam’s Town . “Runaways” revela a história de um casal jovem ainda apaixonado em fuga com o seu filho recém nascido. Fica aqui esse registo. Daniel Campos [...]

As you may have already heard, Las Vegas' favorite rockers are back from an extended break. The Killers ' last record was Day & Age back in 2008. A few solo albums later, they are now gearing up to release their newest work, entitled Battle Born on September 17. Lead frontman Brandon Flowers, bass player Mark Stoermer, and drummer Ronnie Vannucci all put out their own projects, then all reunited again in April of last year for Lollapalooza in Chile. They went into the studio shortly afterwards, [...]

The Killers have taken their anthemic ways and raised them a couple notches. If the single is any indicator, the "Springsteen" factor is very much alive with vivid description in the lyrics on the first single, "Runaways." The Las Vegas quartet will be releasing their new album, "Battle Born," this fall. the Killers - Somebody Told Me (Mylo Remix) [mp3] The Killers "Runaways"

Brandon Flowers is back in his day job with the Killers, who release their fifth album, Battle Born, on September 17th. Fans got the chance to hear the band's first single in 4 years yesterday, as the anthemic 'Runaways' got its world premiere. Have a listen below. More of the same or a band getting better with experience? Songs 'Heart Of A Girl', 'Flesh And Bone' and 'Carry Me Home' are all confirmed to appear on the album. Stream:

And it official. The Killers are back together. Say hello to their new track 'Runaway' and their new album 'Battle Born' which will be released in September. This news is ridiculously exciting, we have only had to wait, oh, four years for an album after their first three, 'Hot Fuss', 'Sam's Town' and 'Day and Age', which were spectacular. Unfortunately I am rather impartial to the song but I think it will grow on me after a few listens. Really looking forward to hearing more from the band!

The Killers sind zurück mit The Killers. Angekündigt haben The Killers nach dem sehr 80ties-lastigen "Day & Age" eine Rückbesinnung auf den eher rockigeren Sound des Debüt-Albums. Und sie hielten Wort. Zumindest die erste Single "Runaway" klingt stark nach ihren Anfangstagen. Der Track ist vom am 18. September erscheinenden Album "Battle Born". Der Song ist ziemlich druckvoll, voll Rock. > The Killers spielen am 23. August am Zürich Openair Weitere Artikel [...]

In an interview with Rolling Stone last May, The Killers announced plans to release the fourth album in the band’s catalog, Battle Born. The album will be the band’s first since 2008’s Day & Age . As previously mentioned from the band, today marks the release of the new album’s first official single, 'Runaways'. The four-minute epic, loaded with synths and grandiose prose, takes another stab at Springsteen-centric arena rock. Check it out below and grab the album September 18th, via Island Records
Those polarizing Las Vegasans (Vegasites?) The Killers are back with the first track from Battle Born due out this fall. No one was sure if we would even get a new Killers album but fortunately for us they're back with "Runaways". Landing equidistant between the sounds of '062s Sam's Town and '082s Day & Age, [...]

"Why you wanna fight it?" After what seems like a long hiatus, the Killers are finally back with a new single! Those hoping for a sound that hearkens back to their debut are bound to be a little disappointed, since Runaways sounds a lot like a missing track from Sam's Town . In other words, it's a dramatic stadium rock number with a heavy Springsteen influence and some big guitar riffs. I'm not complaining, as I personally loved Sam's Town . Still, on first listen this is no When We Were [...]
