Brandon Flowers: 'Everything Is At Stake On Third Killers Album'

August 12, 2008
Brandon Flowers: 'Everything Is At Stake On Third Killers Album'Singer Brandon Flowers says that everything is at stake on the Killers forthcoming third album, 'Day and Age'.

“I live through these songs. People make such a big deal about the second album: ‘Do or die.’ But I feel like the pressure to produce something great will always be there,” he said.

“It’s our job, after all.”

The Killers previewed two songs of the album, 'Spaceman' and 'Neon Tiger', at a recent show in New York.

Although both songs demonstrate their trademark stadium ambition, bassist Mark Stoermer told Rolling Stone that the overall album is “stripped down in a lot of ways.”

“Each instrument has its place, and things aren’t clouding anything up. We’re not trying to be bombastic. It’s our most poppy record but also our most experimental,” he said.

Two more songs expected to feature on the album are currently entitled 'Vibration' and 'Goodnight, Travel Well', he said.

Flowers also told the magazine that the band “learned that you can't please everyone” following the release of their last album 'Sam's Town'.

“But we’ve got faith in what we do, faith in our fans and faith in the soon-to-be-converted,” he added.
