More about the Episode:
The Killers grabbed rock by the shirt collar when they blasted outta Vegas in 2004 with the instantly impressive 'Hot Fuss.' Brandon Flowers' passionate vocals roared in front of the band's explosive moves, and "Mr. Brightside" came on like a storm. On the 'Watch This' series the artists glance back at their most significant music videos, adding insightful commentary and key insights about the shoots themselves or the career impact of the videos at that time in their career. We invited The Killers in to chat it up a bit about some of their important videos, and Flowers and Ronnie Vannucci took some time to recall a few of their best-known titles. First up, the one the kicked everything off: "Mr. Brightside," directed by Sophie Muller. "I never felt natural to make a music video," muses the singer. "It still doesn't." That doesn't mean they've stopped, however. Their latest track "Caution" is currently topping the Alt-Rock chart and its video is superb. Stay close, we'll be sharing more 'Watch This' chats with Brandon and Ronnie soon.
Watch their new song Caution here
The album’s first single, “Caution”, is all of Imploding The Mirage’s excellence densely packed into three and a half minutes. Both refreshingly next level and reminiscent of the band’s much-loved albums Sam’s Town and Battle Born, it finds The Killers evoking the spirit of ambitious reinvention matched with the kind of anthemic chorus to which they’ve become synonymous. The track also features an iconic guitar solo courtesy of the legendary Lindsey Buckingham.
