A VASTLY overrated band, capitalizing on the recent Franz Ferdinand dance-rock craze (which is also vastly overrated) Music like this tends to be popular with musically retarded guys looking for "indie cred" and superficial girls trying to show that they are musically enlightened because they "like a weird new band I heard on MTV2". In actuality, they don't think it gets much better than shit like Ryan Cabrera and Maroon 5.
You can always tell who a Killers fan is by the fact that he or she can only name one Killers song (somebody told me)

A card game in which the object is to get rid of all your cards before everyone else.
rules of killer:
1) 3 of clubs starts the game off
2) the game proceeds in a clockwise rotation starting from whoever has the 3 of clubs
3) suits do matter and progress in alphabetical order (clubs are lowest then diamonds, then hearts and spades are highest)
4) whatever number of cards is thrown down stays that way until control of the hand is switched (ex if someone throws down the 3 of clubs and the next person has the other 3 3s they cant throw them all down they can either throw down one of those 3s or throw down a higher card)
5) 4 of a kind is referred to as a bomb and can be thrown down at any time this usually results in control of the hand being shifted to the person who threw the bomb unless someone has a higher bomb to throw
6) the 2 of spades is the highest individual card that can be thrown

This band that thinks they're the best band in the whole universe. They think every other band make music from there "leftovers." There lyrics also fucken suck.
They hate The Bravery and Fall Out Boy. There lyrics suck and you know it, but you wont accept it because your stupid little friends like them. the killers suck thats all.

omg only like the best UK band alive! they have awesome songs like, Smile like you Mean it, and Mr. Brightside, but their first 'big' cd came out 2004 it was called "Hot Fuss" and it managed to storm it's way up the charts slowly a year after it's release.
"MR. Brightside, Smile like you meAN it, Jenny was a friend of mine, somebody told me, Andy, your a star"

They're kind of pop, they're kind of indie, they're kind of rock. "Somebody told me" is there only song so far with chart sucess (I think). I'm not sure whether I like them or not. It's very possible they will turn out to be a one hit wonder.
