I really can't point out the reason why I love the band so much but there is something about them that I dig so much. I can't wait to get the new album, Hot Fuss to me is a classic and I hope this one lives up to it. Just thought I would throw that out there, what do you guys think?
Thats okay man, cause I love Frogs

    I read somewhere that the new album stinks ... alot. Apparently they're gone all bruce springsteen-ish, in the bad sense.
    All my favourite singers have stolen all of my best lines.

    Loved Hot Fuss

    Love the new song

    BOLD STATEMENT ALERT: There have been very few bands since Pearl Jam that I have liked so much as soon as they came out.

    For me, I would have to say the best new band in the last 6-7 years.

    I'm excited about that record!!! It's such an awesome band and Hot Fuss is one of the best records I've heard in a long time!!!

    Brandon Flowers even says that they made the greatest record of the past 20 years!!! of course is not, they missed Ten, Nevermind, Ok Computer, Is this it but whatever!!
    Pearl Jam Mexico 2005, The greatest year ever!

    i didn't really get into their first two singles, but i was taken aback by All These Things I've Done. Great song. Can't stop playing it lately (along w/ Search and Destroy and I Wanna Be Your Dog).

    Absolutely love the new song, I can't stop playing it! I hope the new album has a similar vibe. I think they are a classic band in the making, their melodies are really catchy and the songs have a bit more substance than a lot of other pop-rock bands.

    In my honest opinion, it's their best song yet, it's pretty epic towards the end. You can find it on most the peer2peer networks.

    hot fuss is great, and im looking forward to hearing the new single soon.

    they are a good band, kinda of a less extreme muse sound in places.

    I liked some of the old stuff but I dont like the new song at all. And I dont think it sounds Springsteen-ish at all, i just think it sucks.
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    Some die just to live.

    Musically speaking the guitar lines have a Born to Run feel to them. Springsteen wasn't the first thought that came to my mind when I heard it, but thinking about it I can see what people are saying. That and the narrative style of lyrics which is very Springsteen-esque.

    glad to see that there are people who share my opinions on the band. October 3rd is just around the corner...

    I am anxiously awaiting their new release. In fact I've already pre-ordered on Amazon. I really like their sound. It's a throwback 80's sound in a good way. Which is difficult to define but the fans know what I'm talking about. Plus, I'm not gay, but the lead singer Brandon Flowers is so damn pretty! :)
