In a recent interview with NME, frontman Brandon Flowers said that the new material they’ll be playing from upcoming album Wonderful Wonderful is ‘different’ from their lacklustre previous effort, Battle Born. “There’s a direction, and I think we got there,” he said. “I hope that people recognise that and feel that. We still have two and a half months until it’s out.”
He continued: “I think we were a little bit aimless on Battle Born. We were searching. You’re not always gonna find it, I mean we’re always trying, but you’re not always gonna touch what you’re reaching for and we didn’t quite get there – I don’t feel like. I don’t mean to take anything say from it, you know there are songs on it that I love, but just as a whole I wasn’t very happy with it.”
Tickets are on sale now for The Killers’ UK tour, while their new album Wonderful Wonderful is due for release on September 22.
