What: “Brandon Flowers and his Sin City cohorts hold up the promise of a truth that can transcend the troubles of temporal life.” – LA Times
On Sept 24, The Killers return to Portland, to rock Memorial Coliseum. With the help of their latest full length album, Day & Age, The Killers have lifted spirits and rocketed to new acclaim, selling over a million copies world wide in the first week of the release. On their third full length album, the Las Vegas – based Killers have taken their sound into dynamic new territories with tremendous results.
From the swirling synths and guitar trills of first single “Human,” to the epic, sing-along chorus of new single “Spaceman,” to the sparkling harps and strings on “I Can’t Stay” and more, Day & Age is The Killers at their shimmery transcendent best.
Some praise for Day & Age…
“All killer, no filler…a fresh and immediate arena-rock triumph…The sound isn’t just bigger, it’s transnational, yielding the kind of radiant, whip-smart rock album you seldom hear in this day and age.” –USA Today
“…rollicking charm…epic exuberance…a record that retains all of the anthemic aspirations of their last album but also shows some surprising new influences…” – Vogue
