Ultragrrrl forced Productshop, Lindsayism, and me to listen to the whole Killers album last night. We all loved it. One of us may have even vomited (out of joy) after watching their music video. I met Tim from London who promised to read this blog today. Hi Tim.
Someone send Stereogum the Killers CD.
Also, I still agree with Jason that Jet are the Candlebox of the garage scene.

NAME: Phoenix PROGRESS REPORT: Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, out in Spring 2009. Recorded at Philippe Zdar's studio in Montmartre, Paris. "Fast and intense" is how Phoenix's lead singer Thomas Mars describes the band's next record. The Paris-based foursome are men of...

As we've mentioned in the past (2007), Robert Schneider's not afraid of the graceful sellout. So, no, we're not surprised that he and his E6 cohorts just scored a Pepsi commercial. (Heck, we already knew how much E6-related bands loved...

Morrissey's ninth solo album is one of those collections that leaked in fits and starts via live performances and singles and the like that by the time we took it in from "Something Is Squeezing My Skull" through "I'm OK...

Cold Cave is the brainchild of Philadelphia's Wesley Eisold, ex-Some Girls, Give Up The Ghost, XO Skeletons, and currently Ye Olde Maids, etc. We're calling his newest project a Band To Watch, but Eisold received some high-profile press when Fall...

In February, New York BTW the Pains Of Being Pure At Heart are releasing their self-titled full-length collection of jangly, noisy indie pop on the most fitting of labels, Slumberland. We recently posted the video for album track "Everything For...

Not all of Stereogum's favorite sounds conform to what folks expect us to cover. In this space, resident Bananafish fetishist Brandon Stosuy focuses on bands, albums, singles, and villages in Sweden that may otherwise pass by unnoticed. This installment's virtual...

We thought it would be wise (and witty) to start the New Year with the New Year, so this week's Drop finds the post-Bedhead Kadane brothers-fronted Touch & Go quintet offering up "MMV," a suitably thematic track from their excellent...

Im not quite sure what you mean by your Jet/Candlebox comment, but seeing as I am the greatest proponent of the 90s revival, I am sincerely hoping it is NOT a slanderous remark in re Candlebox. Lord knows "You" and the 329483209842390 other hits off their one album are some kick ass jams. Whereas Jet suck goat teats.

Ha! Jet are a disgrace to Australia... I almost had a heart attack when I found out that their song was voted number one here by our generally great radio station, tripple J. See my irate post:

Listening to "Mr Brightside"- I felt like I was listening to Robin Zander- yeah, Cheap Trick resurrected but wrapped up in a slightly different package. Sounds cool, I have never hear of The Killers before but now I want to hear more. "mommy's allright, daddy's alright..... they just seem a little wieeeeeeeeeeerd!"
(that is why i like Stereogum- you are always introducing me to cool things- )

newyorkdoll.org posted some Killers tracks a while ago. They were:
Indie Rock N Roll
Somebody Told Me
Coming Out
Jenny
Those don't seem to be on the Mr. Brightside EP (which i haven't heard yet), so I assume those are from the new album?

Oh yeah! Found 'em hidden in my hard drive. Thanks Pinder/Giulia.
