The Killers - Day & Age (2008) Review

08 Dec 2008 05:34:14 PST

This is The Killers third official albums release (Sawdust is not considered an official full length album, it's a b-side collection). I was never a huge fan of their previous released Hot Fuss and Sam's Town, as a matter of fact they both bored me. They had amazing lead singles (Mr. Brightsid...
