Alk Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Yeah, they're one of the very few new bands that I actually like. I saw the video for Mr. Brightside a while back. Like whoah!! That's a pretty whacked out video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomShane Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 I put the album on 'repeat' whenevr I'm trying to get something done. I've got soul but I'm not a sol-dier-er. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Well somebody told me You had a boyfriend Who looks like a girlfriend That I had in February of last year It's not confidential I've got potential... After hearing the chorus of that song, I realized I never wanted to hear another Killers song again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Division Marduk Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 They've been doing the terrible music for a really terrible ad here for nearly a year now. I only found out a couple of months ago it was them. Painful to the ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANyone else like them? Its good drinking music for sure...maybe thats why they sound good right now..who knows I like em. Sound kinda 80's ish if you ask me. Synthetic sound to the guitars. My favorite song on there is "Smile Like You Mean It". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warfish Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 They're ok, but other than "Somebody Told Me", it really isn;t my kinda music. No, I'm hard core into these acts right now: --The Mars Volta --Iron & Wine --System of a Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawngnome o-line Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 For all the catchy songs and cool almost electronic beats that the Killers present on "Hot Fuss", it is exactly what it is, a well produced album which doesn't carry further than the recording studio. I don't dislike the Killers, on the radio their songs are catchy and almost to the point of mind numbing addiction...but live, they are terrible. I went to see them in NYC and they were not anywhere near quality to any of the other bands I've seen (which are many). On a scale of 1 to 10 they are a 8.7 on the cd and a 3.6 live. And its not even like I have a biased opinion, Rolling Stone gave their live performance a 2 stars out of 5 and said and i paraphrase "a boring representation of what they put out on the record". For all you killers lovers, move on away from this band, they've reached their peak, and after their new song dies away, so will they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
