The Killers – Hot Fuss

The Killers – Hot Fuss

The Killers might hail from Las Vegas, but their 2004 debut Hot Fuss displays an Anglophilic streak that is an ocean wide. Steeped in the back catalogue of The Smiths and Pulp, with broad 80s synth sweeps cloaking each tale of fraught romance, this is a band that clearly rates the swoon over the swagger.

On Top, Somebody Told Me and Mr Brightside are tremendous examples of breathless indie-pop that gallop along like a lovestruck heartbeat, with Brandon Flowers gasping for breath on the claustrophobic disco floor. Inarguably what The Killers do best.
