WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG - KILLERS
Talk about being on the hot seat. How do you top a debut album that sells 5 million copies worldwide and churns out four damn fine successful singles?
That’s the task ahead for the Killers as they follow up their “Hot Fuss” album, which was released in June 2004 and became the longest-running rock album inside the top 50 on The Billboard 200 for 2005.
The Las Vegas-based foursome have blasted the first salvo across the bow with the set’s debut single, “When You Were Young” (from the forthcoming “Sam’s Town,” due out October 3), which manages to intricately intertwine a hard-driving, drum-laden rock beat with harmonies that even the toughest rock critic or radio programmer couldn’t shoot holes through.
