Product description Includes 1 song "Glamorous Indie Rock & Roll" not available on the USA version. .co.uk The Killers might hail from one of the USA's most quintessentially American cities (Las Vegas), but their debut album Hot Fuss displays an Anglophilic streak that is an ocean wide. Steeped in the back-catalogue of the Smiths and Pulp, with broad 80s synth sweeps cloaking each tale of fraught metrosexual romance, this band clearly rate the swoon over the swagger. Still, this is almost entirely an upbeat record, one made for the packed club than the smoky VIP room; in particular "On Top", "Somebody Told Me" and "Mr Brightside" are tremendous examples of breathless indie-pop that gallop along like a lovestuck heartbeat with frontman Brandon Flowers gasping for breath on the claustrophobic disco floor. This is, inarguably, what the Killers do best. Even when they deviate from form theyve got a few neat ideas--see the gospel choir that echoes back Flowers' repeated exclamation "I've got soul/ But I'm not a soldier" on "All These Things I've Done", or the self-consciously epic "Indie Rock'n'Roll", delivered by the Killers with all the fireworks and gusto of a curtain-closing Broadway showtune. --Louis Pattison

Great debut album
Not being a great fan of The Killers I bought this album after taking my wife to see them live a Wembley. They are a great live band and did an awesome show. I recognised a lot of the songs and most were on this album. I love the first few songs as they are staples of the live set. The music isn't just the same style all through but you get different flavours throughout. Some more heavily keyboard influenced and then some great raw guitar riffs. Thoroughly enjoyable!

One of the greatest albums of all time
One of the greatest albums of all time! Only listened to it for the first time recently and now I listen at least twice a week! You put it on and then have to repeat it's that good. At first, the singles being at the start of the album are so great that the others seem a little bit underwhelming, but now I actually appreciate these other album tracks more, and they're very good songs. Amazing debut album!

Revision Music
I know the title seems really random but its ace listening to when revising. I love the other songs such as Brightside and Human which hear on the radio regularly. So I thought I would give each album a try. Its ace to dance along to whilst getting work done!
