Hot Fuss
Hot Fuss features eleven nuggets of reel-you-in storytelling genius and musical nectar. These eleven tracks span from the "very Vegas ? like Ziggy came to town" first proper single release "Somebody Told Me";"Mr Brightside" - a tale of jealousy that depicts that moment in a relationship when you realize that your other half might be playing away and this thought takes up residence in your psyche feeding the worst fears and visualisations your imagination can then throw at you. You?ll find two-thirds of a murder trilogy in "Midnight Show", which starts off harking back to "Lipgloss" before veering into far darker territory than old Jarvis would ever have flirted with, in Pulp days at least, and "Jenny". These two are connected by the story of a murder of a girl by her jealous boyfriend. The first part of the trilogy, "Leave The Bourbon On The Shelf", will, you can be sure, make an appearance at some point in the future. It?s a deliciously ambitious series that! belies the band?s tender years. Elsewhere, meanwhile: "On Top" celebrates where Brandon feels the band is at, while stalker?s tale "Andy You?re A Star" and "All These Things That I?ve Done," saw Flowers realise his dream of using a gospel choir in their recordings. more

- still a must have album
Everyone has heard the single mr. brightside. But the rest of the album is just all the way groundbreaking. In the days of heavy metal and emo/screamo, these guys bring their own sound and style. This album is in my top 100 of all time.

- One of the great debuts
I've never had the experience before of standing in a record store, hearing a song being played, going straight to the counter to find out what it was, and then buying the album within minutes. But that's the effect that the song "Mr....

- Wonderful Debut!
I simply adore this CD. I can't even tell you how many times I've played it over and over. It never gets old. The Killers have become one of my favorite bands and I resent the people that claim they are copycats of U2 or Coldplay. Their...

- My first Killers CD
My first exposure to the Killers was through the song "All These Things I've Done," which is probably the most perfect song I've heard in a long time. From the single, sign-of-life piano key at the beginning of the song to the pulsing...

- The Killers force '80s rock and '00s rock into bed. The resulting child is plagued with birth defects...
The Killers really suck, you know that? My reaction to most of this album is "These guys are irritating." And since I'm not really seeing any redeeming facets to Brandon Flowers' obnoxious voice or the group's style-over-substance sound,...
