Who else likes "The Killers?"

[Catch22Dem]

Watch their Mr. Brightside video with Eric Roberts. Great song from one of the better new bands. Just my opinion.

They're out of Vegas, baby!

[smbolisnch]

3. I do!

4. Somebody Told Me is my earworm

My wife's, too.

And they were pretty good on SNL this past weekend.

Anyone know if the rest of the album grows on you? I'm not sure I'm keen on what I've heard.

6. I love the album, I think every song is fabulous.

And yes, they were great on SNL.

They were on MTVs show Hard Rock Live, and they were really awesome on that, if you ever see it on TV check it out. :7

8. We don't get MTV America up here unfortunately.

BUT THANK GOD WE'RE ABOUT TO GET FOX NEWS!!!!!!!!!!

11. OMG! Are you like just so excited about that?!?!?!?!

I bet you're just peeing your pants over that one! :bounce:

</sarcasm>

5. ME! I went to their show this fall

in Boston, they sound awesome live. The band is made up of such interesting and diverse characters.

7. I'll be damned....I thought I'd be ostracized for liking something so...

MAINSTREAM.

DUers tend to poo-poo on the things you like sometimes. Oh, don't look at me so surprised, you know it's true. One time, we ran a dude outta town for liking Clay Aiken. Ok, it wasn't quite that bad, but...

I say, like what you like!

*Steps down from soapbox* ;)

9. Right on!

Why not like them? Mainstream or not, they are a great band! :yourock:

[NYC Liberal]

10. I really haven't listened to their stuff.

But I'd like to check it out.

Plus, I met one of 'em. :)

[RevolutionaryActs]

12. No way! Damn, that is so cool!

He is so cute! hehehehehehehehe

13. Oh, you mean "The Killers" (1964) Ronald Reagan, Lee Marvin

I saw this film in Cairo, Egypt in 1973. The country was off limits largely to Americans (like I cared). The mostly male Egyptian audience loved it but got up and walked out after the big shoot out scene at the end with about 5 minutes to go in the picture. Is the band named after the movie (named after a Hemingway short story)?

[Catch22Dem]

14. No, they're named for a fictional band from a New Order video

if I recall

[Kat45]

15. I heard a song and liked it, but I forget what it sounded like.

:shrug:

[IcyPeas]

16. Killers can be seen here...

MTV has some Killers music videos on their website as well as videoed interviews etc.

Interpol are also very good.

17. My daughter likes them a lot

...because she heard them on The OC. :)

What little I've heard sounds great to me.
