The Killers Unveil Christmas Single 'Boots'

December 2, 2010
The Killers Unveil Christmas Single 'Boots'The Killers have unveiled the video for their Christmas single, 'Boots', which is also available to download now.

The video, which can be watched below, shows the Brandon Flowers-fronted band in their hometown of Las Vegas.

'Boots' continues the band's tradition of releasing a festive single, and has once again seen them unite with the charity (RED), which raises money for the Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa.

"Our Christmas single with (RED) is one of our traditions as a band," Flowers said. "We didn't want to let it fall by the wayside just because we're on hiatus; this cause is too important."

The song is available now as digital download and will also be released on CD on December 7 at select stores.

The Killers are currently on hiatus, although they are expected to release a new album in 2011.
