Brandon Flowers' debut finds him with ambitions as lofty as ever, but they are sadly unrealized without the rest of The
Killers. 'Flamingo' is an uneven album: opener "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" is honestly just awful, but "Playing With
Fire" showcases some of Flowers' strongest lyrical work to date ("Rolling river of truth, can you spare me a sip / The holy
fountain of youth has been reduced to a drip"). On first listen much of it comes off as a little too poppy for its own good,
but repeated listens reveal welcome depth to a number of tracks.
Standout tracks: Only The Young, Playing With Fire, Crossfire

Slightly weaker than early work from The Killers, and a little closer to their later work. His signature vocal style is still here, with a definite borrowing of style musically from his work with The Killers. However, he adds his own touch, making the album unique, but it's missing the punchy and catchy songs.

This album confirm Flowers as one of today's best song writers.

Nothing special, if I heard the album and hadn't known it was Brandon's solo effort, I would've said The Killers must've released another album. Sounds like a typical Killers release, a cross between Day & Night and Sams Town.
