Libertine Posted 3 October 2006 Posted 3 October 2006 I was gonna get it but I've heard it's disappointing, so I think I'll leave it.
Wils Posted 3 October 2006 Author Posted 3 October 2006 I just got it but wont have a chance to listen to it until later.
Master Fox Posted 3 October 2006 Posted 3 October 2006 I just got it but wont have a chance to listen to it until later. Rubbish mate!
Babylon Posted 3 October 2006 Posted 3 October 2006 3 good songs, rest rubbish. Gave me a bloody headache.
Chairman of the Bored Posted 3 October 2006 Posted 3 October 2006 I am on the second listen right now. Will probably be a grower but not as instant as Hot Fuss. Possibly a little bit more derivative, they have been listening to U2 and Springsteen that's for sure. One for the car, windows down, roaring along the A46 (at 10mph).
Leicfox Posted 3 October 2006 Posted 3 October 2006 3 good songs, rest rubbish. Gave me a bloody headache. I agree with you, 3 songs which are decent enough the rest is pants.
De Vries The King Posted 4 October 2006 Posted 4 October 2006 I really like it...but looks like I'm the only one
Babylon Posted 4 October 2006 Posted 4 October 2006 I really like it...but looks like I'm the only one Freak
Benji Posted 5 October 2006 Posted 5 October 2006 I like it To be fair Hot Fuss is such an amazing album (Mr Brightside possibly being one of the best songs ever made) it would be a lot to expect much better in my opinion anyway. I'd agree it's not AS good, but still some great tracks

I'd agree it's not AS good, but still some great tracks Yeah right! Heard it, and thought the album was poor plus the lead singer looks like a right fabricated popstar (nice goatee!!)
Benji Posted 5 October 2006 Posted 5 October 2006 Yeah right! Heard it, and thought the album was poor plus the lead singer looks like a right fabricated popstar (nice goatee!!) pffft <_< For reasons unknown is sticking out as my favourite at the minute...Sam's town, when you were young and read my mind are up there as well though. I think the problem with this album is the whole enterlude and exitlude makes it almost story based or with a continued theme. The problem with that is you get two or three songs that are made purely for the theme and don't actually sound very good. I'd much have prefered a couple of songs that have nothing to do with any of the others but sound better. Is it growing on anyone who at first thought nothing of it yet?

Ive listen'd to most the tracks a few times tonight and i can say it has started to grow on me. I did say i was disapointed with it but the more i listen to it the more i like it.
Mike Hunt Smells Posted 7 October 2006 Posted 7 October 2006 I've been listening to it all week, still can't get into it. Uncle Jonny and When You Were Young are the 2 best songs on the album, nowhere near as good as Hot Fuss. Got The Fratellis and Keane's latest arriving over the weekend.

Foxy1984 Posted 12 October 2006 Posted 12 October 2006 Hot Fuss was only a half good album. There is some shocking songwriting on that album... and don't shoot me down, I do like The Killers. Haven't heard the new album. Think I may have heard a new song whilst out at a club last weekend, but not sure really!.. It sounded like Brandon.. with his silly facial hair!
Cheese Me Posted 13 October 2006 Posted 13 October 2006 It's generally a really good album apart from Enterlude and Exitlude which are a waste of time.
The Man Who Would Be King Posted 14 November 2006 Posted 14 November 2006 I love this album. Ateleast as good as Hot Fuss, if not better Don't get me wrong Hot Fuss is great, but Sam's town just sticks in your head and you wanna keep listening.
gatesheadfox Posted 14 November 2006 Posted 14 November 2006 Hot Fuss was only a half good album. There is some shocking songwriting on that album you are right, half of it is good to listen to but it does irritate me at times that the words are picked randomly and rarely make any fecking sense. "i got soul but i'm not a soldier" being the thing that gets me most angry in life
The People's Hero Posted 14 November 2006 Posted 14 November 2006 Neither of the albums tickle my fish. I did quite enjoy the Fratelli's offering though.. in a sick, twisted and quite perverse way as I generally don't like music of that ilk (ilk!!).
Guest seanfox778 Posted 16 November 2006 Posted 16 November 2006 i loved sams town i was a bit sketchy at first but it grew on me
shen Posted 16 November 2006 Posted 16 November 2006 To be honest, I don't see what is so great about The Killers. To me they are just plain boring!
