Good review, and pretty accurate rating imo. I was expecting this to be awful so I was actually quite pleasantly surprised.

Your review needed more puns Kris. LOL. I know you all chuckled with the "more gambling metaphors than you could roll a dice at" line.



Thanks CutMan. If you really liked 'Crossfire', you should like this album.



Thanks Ali. I wasn't expecting this to be awful as I think Flowers is genuinely talented. But he can rub people the wrong way, so I guess that's where low expectations can come in.

Crossfire is by far the best song on the album, and its up there with some of the better Killer ones. I'm not making final judgments because these types of records often need growing time, but I'm not loving it right now.

Might as well face it you're addicted to Crossfire.



Some of the tracks will grow on you Amanda. On the first couple of listens, I was exactly the same... And the main reason why 'Crossfire' stands out is because we had hurt it before. It's still the best though.

Morrisey has probably my favorite icon/avatar/user pic on the entire site. I swear... Wish it was mine. I have icon envy.

DaveyBoy I definitely won't give up on it yet.

He's eaten a lot of chips over the years.

I was so excited for this but yeah I can't see myself listening to it in a year's time. At ALL.

Not a bad debut album! I can't help but think that this proves that he'd be better off on his own though! I wan't so badly for the new Killers stuff not to suck, but this will do until they get good again.

My next review will be made solely of metaphors, just for you Dave.

I disagree EmptySkies, I enjoyed this but there's so much more potential with the Killers.

Yeah Adam, I don't think this album will last the test of time, hence why I had to get something along those lines into the review.



EmptySkies, I don't think it will prove to Flowers one way or another whether he is better off solo or not. If it sold millions (which it won't), then maybe... But as long as he doesn't go crazy with electronic music, I think The Killers as a band will be just fine.



Anyone can use metaphors StarClassic, but only the best of us can use puns.

He looks concerned to me. Pringles are fattening.

i don't understand why this isn't just a Killers record, is there a reason behind it? I feel like I'm missing something

Fine summary.

Some drunk chick said I look like B. Flowers, when I had a stache, how generic
