The Killers - Pressure Machine (8.13.21) Album • Page 2

Update: I relistened to Day & Age and I think I was too harsh on it in the past. Still probably my least favorite of their records, and there are a couple of songs I wasn't super into, but overall I liked it when returning to it.

 

When Day & Age came out, I think the Sam's Town reassessment hadn't fully happened yet, so I remember there was some hype from major publications calling it a "return to form" (even though it really sounds nothing like Hot Fuss). It definitely took me awhile to appreciate that album, because it's so all-over-the-place, and some of the songs are a little half-baked. I like it a lot more in retrospect, which I think tends to be the case with oddities in an artist's catalog.

 

It’s definitely not the classic world-conquering third album, but maybe that’s because their first album already conquered the world.

 

I didn't pick up Day & Age til five years after. Which I regret as Dustland Fairytale turned out to be a top ten song for me. Not just Killers top ten

 

Definitely the best song on the album. I view it as basically the best song to summarize the band with.

 

mr. brightside might be a top 10 wedding song

 

I'm going with Phoebe.

Oh wow, apparently it's Springsteen?!?!

 

Oh my God, oh my God.

 

Has this band just totally put to bed the idea of touring behind Imploding The Mirage?

 

well damn. That is amazing.

 

Wonder if this is for the new album or a one off?

 

Imagine it's the lead single for the album.

 

Fuck. Yes.

 

:)

 

Exciting. Probably wishful thinking for coming out tomorrow, as I imagine they expected the guessing to last longer/it would probably be out in Aus by now. What a match up though.

 

Sweet Jesus.

 

Can't wait for this

 

@Matt Chylak how long have you known about this?

 

im guessing April 28th when he posted “oh man oh man oh man” hahah

 

I had the same thought, hah

 

Welp, lol.

 

August.
