Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Import edition of the 2006 sophomore release from the hugely successful band from Las Vegas features one bonus track: 'Where The White Boys Dance'. It's been a long wait but a new Killer's album has finally appeared on the horizon, with preliminary reports suggesting they've dropped the fixation with English based Indie Rock n Roll to concentrate on a more homespun sound (having heard 'Hot Fuss' it may surprise you to learn that they are actually Americans hailing from Las Vegas). With songs taking their cues from, amongst others, Springsteen, Johnny Cash, The Beatles, U2 and Iggy Pop this new musical offering should be ace. Island.

Amazon.com:
The Killers five-million-selling debut, 2004's Hot Fuss, saw the stylish Las Vegas quartet mining inspiration from its favorite '80s British acts Duran Duran, the Cure, and the Smiths. On its follow-up, the group turns its focus homeward. First there's the album title, Sam's Town, which pays tribute to the old-school local casino where the band got its start. Then there's the music inside, a collection of windswept rockers in the vein of Bruce Springsteen that leave the indie-disco vibe of 'Mr. Brightside' in the desert dust. Working with producers Alan Moulder and Flood (best known for their work with U2, Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails), everything here sounds bigger and shinier, with full-blown strings and choirs coloring epics like 'When You Were Young' and 'The River Is Wild.' Coming soon to a stadium near you. --Aidin Vaziri

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I LOVE THE KILLERS!!
Different than hot fuss,my favorites-The Killers:Hot Fuss and Sam's Town.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - People baffle me...
Honestly this album is great, plain and simple. I love reading peoples reviews saying this album is terrible and the Killers are dead...Craziness, all of it. Just because Sam's Town sounds different from Hot Fuss doesn't mean it sucks. Cool your heads off people its ok. And brace yourself because their next album will be different too (oh no!!!) :) Killers are great because they have different angles and sounds. They try new things. I applaud.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Sam's Town - Where I Learned to Love the Killers
I basically saw the Killers live before I'd ever really known who they were on the radio. I recognized some of their big hits - Mr. Brightside & All These Things That I've Done - and said, "Oh, that's these guys". As I heard and got to know their other songs, somewhat more introspective and personal songs from Sam's Town, I thought, "this is a really good band" and decided to buy all their CD's (2). I've heard their new single, "Human" that's due to come out on their next album this Fall and I'm stoked. It sounds like a continuation of Sam's Town, even though it's a little club'ish, and I don't club nor dance. It's a great sound, 80's-esque but definitely their own. I hope their around together for a long time, and that they maintain their individuality. I'm shocked that Sam's Town is only $5.99 on Amazon MP3's. It's a worthwhile download. Not 1 bad tune on the whole album; even the intro and exitlude ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Work!
Featuring the smash hit "When You Were Young", this hook laden gem is a must have in any collection. Brandon Flowers has one of those easy to listen to voices. This is that CD you pull out when you can't decide what you feel like listening to. A fun ride through Sam's Town ... all the way through.
