Killers frontman Brandon Flowers is going the solo route with a brand new album called
Flamingo and his first single was just released.
The song is called "Crossfire" and I happily thought that he was going to cover the theme song of the
intense board game of the 80's and 90's that bares the same name. Sadly, though, it was not meant to be. Instead you're hearing basically what the stuff…

The word "hiatus", especially when it comes to bands, can strike fear into any fan's heart. Does it mean they're going on a short break or is it another word for "break up"? In any case, synth-rockers The Killers have taken the word "hiatus" and applied it to themselves.

Indie-rock fans are probably jizzing their skinny jeans over the recent announcement of the tracklisting for the soundtrack (via
