GF is taking me to a The Killers concert, never even heard a song from start to finish from them.

Anybody wanna school me on these homos?

Hot Fuss was a great guilty pleasure album back in 2003.

The rest? Pure shit.

Fucking great.

So i guess i'm gonna take a listen to Hot fuss, and then just talk about how shit their new shit is.

The Killers rock dude! Hot Fuss is undeniably their best album but Sam's Town isn't too bad. I enjoyed some of the tracks on Sawdust but their latest album, Day & Age, is just poo.

Total shit. A band that overstayed its welcome for four years and counting (2005- )

The music itself is pretty so-so but the soul-crushingly banal people that attend the concert will probably push you over the edge.

I saw them at a festival just as hot fuss was gaining traction. I didn't like their single, but the rest of their set converted me and I bought their album the next week.

They peaked with their debut album, but there are far worse shows you could be dragged to. I had to endure korn once to get to second fucking base when I was young.

the killers are too mainstream for hipsters.

My wife likes them. So yeah, total shit.

Hot Fuss fans should look into The Chameleons:

Yeah. The first time I heard the Killers was on top 20 radio. And that was from Hot Fuss too.

I enjoy the Killers slightly, but yeah, they went downhill after that first album.

One of the best guitar parts in Rock Band

their last album was a bit shit though

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #17 on:** June 17, 2009, 10:14:49 AM »

I only ever kinda liked the one single that they had when they first broke out, I think it was Mr. Brightside. But everything else is so shitty and mindless.

perfect for fistful

recursivelyenumerable · « **Reply #18 on:** June 17, 2009, 10:22:05 AM »

wtf does "indie" even mean these days? is it the 00s version of the 90s' "alternative"?

Brehvolution · « **Reply #19 on:** June 17, 2009, 10:23:19 AM »

Mr. Brightside

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #20 on:** June 17, 2009, 10:25:07 AM »

it doesn't mean anything, it's a label thrown around without much thought put into it. These days it encompasses everything from electric pop to guitar jam music.

Bloodwake · « **Reply #21 on:** June 17, 2009, 11:28:29 AM »

Good songs: All These Things That I've Done, When You Were Young, Mr. Brightside.

Tolerable: Human

Their first album is great. One of the worst live bands ever, though.
