The Killers

With arena-rock choruses and anthems as flashy as his hometown of Las Vegas, Killers frontman Brandon Flowers has fashioned himself to be something of a glam-pop Bruce Springsteen. In that way, ‘Battle Born,’ the first we’ve heard from the band in four years, is an epically masculine, unapologetically dramatic, thoroughly enjoyable listen -- if you can get over the fact that it’s really, really ch

'Leaving Las Vegas' has been a bestselling book, an Oscar-winning film and a hit song for Sheryl Crow -- but as far as Killers frontman Brandon Flowers is concerned, it's also a really terrible idea.

The Silversun Pickups recently asked Mitt Ronmey to stop playing their tune 'Panic Switch' during campaign events, but it doesn't seem like the Killers have taken such a hard-line stance against the presumptive Republican Presidential nominee. Last week, Romney named the Las Vegas rockers when asked to list his favorite bands -- "The Killers are one group I enjoy," he told Parade magazin

The Killers are reportedly working with critically acclaimed German filmmaker Werner Herzog on a concert webcast set to be shot in New York City on Sept. 18, the same day that the band's new 'Battle Born' album hits stores.

We know that President Obama's musical taste ranges from Al Green to Bruce Springsteen to Jay-Z. So who does presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney rock out to? The list of his favorite bands includes the Beach Boys, Kenny Chesney and a modern rock act you might not expect.

On Saturday night (Aug. 18), the Killers headlined the V Festival in Hylands Park in Chelmsford, England with some help from the next night's headliner. The Las Vegas-based rock stars covered Oasis' 'Don't Look Back in Anger,' which was written by Noel Gallagher, whose High Flying Birds closed out Sunday.

Ronnie Vannucci Jr. swears it was an accident, but the Killers drummer may want to be a little more careful next time. Vannucci says that he mistakenly grabbed Michelle Obama's butt back in 2010, when the Killers visited the White House to perform for President Barrack Obama and the first lady as part of the nation's Fourth of July celebrations.

The Killers first hit the scene back in 2004 with the multi-platinum release 'Hot Fuss' and its string of hit singles, which included 'Somebody Told Me,' 'Mr. Brightside' and 'All These Things That I've Done.' The Las Vegas rockers are now looking forward to their fourth full-length platter, 'Battle Born' (out Sept...

-- The Killers are known for their love of Bruce Springsteen, but the iconic sounds of another classic American rocker also rubbed off on their forthcoming 'Battle Born' album, which drops Sept. 18. "The Tom Petty flavor is in us," says drummer Ronnie Vannucci, Jr.

In the past, the Killers have been accused of cribbing heavily from '80s synth pop and U2, but on their new album, frontman Brandon Flowers says they found inspiration in a new source: rock legend Elton John.
