The Killers reveal new album details
According to reports but not confirmed by the band, Nevadan stadium-fillers The Killers have announced the title for their forthcoming third record, due later this year.
After recently finishing work with haggard pop icons Madonna and Seal, producer Stuart Price has been working with the act on their follow up to the Sam’s Town (review), entitled Day and Age.
Songs believed to be on the record include ‘Spaceman, ‘Neon Tiger’ and the apparently Orbison-influenced ‘Tidal Wave. You can take that fairly literally given the way frontman Brandon Flowers revealed he was listening to Bruce Springsteen prior to recording last time round.
Expect an airing when the quartet perform at this year’s Reading and Leeds festival appearances.
Here’s some footage of said ‘Neon Tiger’:

Literally
Killers + Orbison + Stuart Price = Potential Awesome / Wankfest.
This is the most almost great but maybe terrifying news I've ever heard.
-
The Killers
or the Kills?
-
wow
that is a lot of typos
-
he always looks so...
awkward! poor little man. does he actually enjoy himself?
-
maybe
he struggles to breathe in that small waistcoat. he should get a personal tailor.
-
does anyone care anymore
the first album had a few good songs but the second was crap based on the singles.,
-
i must say,
i have a soft spot for the killers, in all probability i wouldn't buy a record by them, but considering how big they are they could easily be a whole lot shitter. they have some cracking little toons in the back-catalogue.
-
Roy Orbison!
The thought of Mr Flowers trying to sound like the big O fills me with the fear of God.
-
theyre headlining Reading
i think a lot of people still care.

SERIOUSLY?!?!?!
before sam's town came 'a hundred miles off' by the walkmen, which was really dylanesque and more inline with american rock like springsteen
now, the new walkmen record You & Me, here's a blurb on insound.com
You & Me is a solid and complex collection of inspired songwriting. Romantic and celebratory, this is the sound of The Walkmen returning to classic form. The music that influenced the Walkmen to compose You & Me follows in a tradition of song writing that traces back to early rock'n'roll: the intimacy and energy of Elvis Presley's and Buddy Holly's early recordings, and the massive voice and orchestration of ROY ORBISON.
*sigh*, they'll never get big, will they?

Sound like they're trying a bit too hard. I mean, Neon tiger?!
