what i think about the killers
so the entire day yesterday, i listened to the killers’ 2006 album “sam’s town” and overall liked it. there were a few songs here and there that i knew i’d like to keep on my trusty ipod. on my drive home, i decided to listen to their old album “hot fuss” to contrast their old and new sounds. and well… their old stuff is SO much better. at least that’s what i think. i think everyone can agree that their stage presence is sub-par… mechanical even - just my 2 cents.
on a side note: rock climbing last night successfully destroyed my hands but i’m definitely getting better. and my new guitar is sitting in shipping and receiving. muhahah
You said it.. Sam’s Town (I keep thinking it’s Sam’s Club, the retail chain owned by Walmart) is a little underwhelming. But you should check out the new My Chemical Romance album, “The Black Parade”.
I usually can’t stand any punk, emo, or any of the variations of them, but this isn’t bad at all. It’s like a rock opera - the song “Welcome to the Black Parade” is Queen-ish. They also have a good guitar player, which always helps. But that’s such an oxymoron for a punk/emo band.
