More about: The Killers

The Killers have announced the follow-up to last year's excellent Imploding The Mirage. Pressure Machine will be the band's seventh studio album and arrives very soon: 13 August via EMI.

Co-produced by the band, Shawn Everett and Foxygen's Jonathan Rado, the album was made at home during the pandemic. "It was the first time in a long time for me that I was faced with silence," band leader Brandon Flowers said. "And out of that silence this record began to bloom, full of songs that would have otherwise been too quiet and drowned out by the noise of typical Killers records.”

We also know that Pressure Machine will focus on themes of smalltown America, drawing from Flowers' own upbringing in the 5,000-person town of Nephi, Utah. "Had it not been for advancements in the automotive industry, Nephi in the 90s could have been the 1950s" Flowers said in a press note announcing the album.

Pressure Machine arrives 13 August via EMI. Pre-order it here.
