I wished to share some thrilling information with readers of EQ Music Weblog about The Killers. As you might have anticipated, they’ve a jam-packed summer season schedule crammed with pageant appearances. Simply this final weekend, they stopped off for 2 days on the Studying and Leeds Pageant, the place they gave unbelievable performances. On prime of that, additionally they launched a model new monitor referred to as “Your Facet of City.” Being The Killers I regard as a high-stature band, I had excessive expectations for the music – and let me simply say, it didn’t disappoint. It’s an epic and impactful piece that’s certain to be of curiosity amongst 80s music followers.

I’ve observed synths are sometimes current in Brandon Flowers‘ solo work (“The Desired Impact“). But every time one of many band’s releases options an 80s affect, I positively take discover. There’s simply one thing about that sound that causes ears to perk up.

Relating to “Your Facet of City,” I’m glad the band acquired there first and mentioned this…

“It’s acquired the ghosts of lots of synth music that impressed us through the years. And but feels fully our personal.”

When contemplating sharing my ideas in regards to the music, I discovered the assertion from the band helped make my observations appear much less harsh. Since, listening to the monitor, I couldn’t assist however discover the similarities to the music kinds of Petshop Boys (musically) and New Order (melody/top-line). I recognize some would possibly query if The Killers have offered out their distinctive sound by drawing so closely from these 80s digital acts. However, I personally imagine they’re simply tapping right into a crowd-pleasing aesthetic that may get pageant audiences going wild.

Hypothesis is constructing amongst The Killers fandom. I’m additionally now actually enthusiastic about the potential for this sound being featured on The Killers’ upcoming album. Since I can’t get sufficient of this specific electronic-clash model. I’d sincerely, love to listen to a whole album with this sort of sound. My fingers are crossed that it occurs!
