Cannibal Cheerleader

No Filler

KILLERS BEGIN DEBUTING THIRD LPThis update is all about the Killers. Is it a Quick Bite then? No, the Killers are just deserving of their own Cannibal Cheerleader update.
Explaining our obsession with the Killers is difficult, considering the lack of respect they seem to garnish around the blogosphere. However, we here at CC are of the opinion that Brandon Flowers and company produce some of the best, most awe-inspiring, soaring rock and roll this side of U2, without all the self-importance. The Killers have produced two albums on which we could not find a track to skip. Throughout Hot Fuss, Sam’s Town, and even Sawdust we couldn’t find a track that didn’t feature at least some attractive qualities to us. Basically, the Killers write fantastic songs and we love them for it.

According to this Rock Daily report the Killers are eyeing a November release for their as-of-yet untitled third LP that’s being produced by Stuart Price, who remixed “Mr. Brightside” for the band. As if that wasn’t exciting enough the Killers played a special fanclub only show in NYC last night (the Victims as they’re called) and debuted some spectacular new tracks.

Here’s “Spaceman”:

And here’s “Neon Tiger”:

As far as other titles go Flowers has named the song “Tidal Wave” as another track on the LP. Of course there’s a lot of speculation running rampant about if certain tracks that haven’t been included on Sawdust but have been played at separate live shows will appear on the album. Our money’s on “Soft Surrender” being included, this Killers live gem. Enjoy!
