"The Killers' Great Gift Is That They -- And In Particular Their Frontman, Brandon Flowers -- Have Utterly No Recognition Of The Ridiculous. More Than That, They're Drawn To The Ridiculous, Piecing Together Sounds That Don't Belong Together, Reaching Far Beyond Their Grasp, Aiming For Profundity And Slipping Into Silliness. All This Weighed The Band Down Mightily On Sam's Town, Their Convoluted Americana Theme Park Of A Sophomore Album, All False Façades And Paper-Thin Pretension, But On Its 2008 Sequel, Day & Age, The Killers Shrink The Canvas And Brighten Their Palette, Opting For A Big Sound Over Big Themes. Since The Killers Are At Their Core Poseurs And Not Prophets, Style Over Substance Is The Right Move And Day & Age Has Style For Miles And Miles, Exceeding Even Their Debut, Hot Fuss, In Its Stainless Steel Gleam. If Anything, Hot Fuss Was A Little Too Monochromatic In Its Obsession With '80s Synth Rock, A Criticism That Can Hardly Be Leveled At Day & Age, A Record That Stitches Together Sounds With An Almost Blissfully Idiotic Abandon. Anchored In Dance-rock Though They May Be, The Killers No Longer Sound Like Mere Disciples Of New Order And Duran Duran: Emboldened By The Left Turns Of Sam's Town, No Matter How Misguided They May Have Been, The Killers Will Try Anything, Goosing "Losing Touch" With Growling Saxophones, Creating A Strokes Disco For "Joy Ride," Flirting With Worldbeat À La Vampire Weekend On "This Is Your Life," Dancing The Bossa Nova On "I Can't Stay," And Riding A Tight Soulful Rock & Roll Groove On "The World We Live In," Bringing It Close To A Mad Fusion Of Steve Miller's "Abracadabra" And Hall & Oates' "Private Eyes." Like Before, It's Impossible To Tell If Such Improbable Juxtapositions Are Intentional Or Accidental, But Given The Overall Tightness Of Day & Age, It Feels As If The Killers Do Indeed Mean To Create These Odd, Often Pleasing, Pop Pastiches. And The Emphasis Damn Well Should Be On The Sound And Melody, For Flowers Remains A Downright Goofy Lyricist, Whether He's Misinterpreting Hunter S. Thompson On "Human" Or Recounting An Alien Abduction On "Spaceman." Ridiculousness Is Much Harder To Stomach In Words Than It Is In Music, But The Nice Thing About Day & Age Is That Not Only Is Flowers' Voice Relatively Buried, The Killers Are Unwittingly Comfortable With Their Ludicrous, Outsized Pop, Which Turns The Album Into Terrifically Trashy Pop. Not The Serious Rock They Yearn To Be By Any Means, But These Fashionable Threads Fit Them Better Anyway." AMG Review By Stephen Thomas Erlewine. more

	Hot Fuss New - LP - B0026979-01 Sealed 2023 standard black reissue, no hype sticker. "There are so many garage rock/dance-rock tunes perfectly stylized and glamorous for the pop kids in the city and in the suburbs of new-millennium America. What's nice about these the bands producing these songs is how they strive so desperately to individualize themselves. On a commercial level, they do quite well in delivering catchy pop hooks. When it comes to having actual talent, a select few actually do possess attention-worthy integrity. But there are others who don't, and they disappear from the American consciousness after a brief flirtation with success. Such theories, however, are left up to the individual music fan, so let's put that aside for a moment to experience the decadent pop world of the Killers. The Las Vegas foursome introduce a perfectly tailored new wave-induced art rock sound on their debut, Hot Fuss. They wooed MTV audiences and modern rock followers with the success of "Somebody Told Me" during summer 2004. This chunky-riffed single loaded with androgynous mystery and a dalliance with new romantic energy captures the infectious delivery of the Killers as a band. Vocalist/keyboardist Brandon Flowers does his best Simon LeBon imitation; the sex appeal and the boyish charm are perfectly in place as the rest of the band accents his rich, red-hotness just so. "Jenny Was a Friend of Mine" and "Mr. Brightside" are equally as foxy as the album's first single, affirming that a formula is indeed in motion. It's hard to deny the sparkle of Depeche Mode beats and the sensual allure of Duran Duran. After 25 years, those sounds still hold up; by 2004, however, it's an incredible task to pull this kind of thing off without selling yourself to the tastes of the masses. Interpol and the Walkmen have pulled it off; Franz Ferdinand and Hot Hot Heat have potential. The difference with the Killers is that the dynamic doesn't firmly hold together. The gospel/rock jaunt of "All These Things That I've Done" doesn't quite fit around the Cure-inspired synth reveries of "Everything Will Be Alright" and "Believe Me Natalie." "Midnight Show," as much as it plucks from Duran Duran's "Planet Earth" and "Is There Something I Should Know?," does show promise for the Killers. Hot Fuss came at the right time because the pop kids needed something to savor the summer with, and "Somebody Told Me" served that purpose. Now pull out your Duran Duran records and dance like no one is watching." All Music Guide - MacKenzie Wilson more
