It's been about 5 minutes since my last Killers thread so I thought it deserved another.
They are absolutely epic.

Never really been a massive fan, I've liked some of their stuff but never took the time to listen to a few albums in full, maybe I should.

I know everybody has different tastes but they are amazing.
The way they get a crowd going is unbelievable.

The first album was excellent, that jesus song was ok but they are just so bland now.

Yep 
He can get the crowd going, but I did wander off during the crap songs at Benicassim. Babyshambles set was on at the same time & they were truly awesome!

Love the Killers, the Oxegen set was on MTV at 11 last night. The new stuff grows on you tbf.
Been to see them several times in concert. Brandon Flowers is a fucking legend.

Agreed. I'd love to see them to hear them knock out their older stuff but the newer dross would spoil it, the last album was straight shocking.

They for the most part don't play the dross though, unless on an album tour, (when they played a load of old stuff as well) they play all crowd pleasers.
Seeing them live makes even the new stuff good.
I hope babyshambles are better than young Pete on his own because he's terrible.

Maybe at a festival, go to see him at a smaller venue & he's amazing
Killers are a mediocre band who are good live, which is definately not a bad thing! You just need to pull your tongue out of your BF's arse

Music is subjective, lyrically it probably is terrible but if it sounds good and gets a crowd going that's all you're after.
