Who Let You Go? We're finally back to form in this shorter episode, analyzing a cute little ditty from Sawdust. A cute ditty, indeed, featuring Brandon singing about his own beautiful eyes and the sound of a woman screaming in the background.   check us out on instagram!

Do you want to listen to us talk about our Thrasher tour experience for over two hours? Boy, do I have the episode for you! If you want to skip to the part where we talk about... meeting Brandon... the timecode is 1:46:00. Next time, we will be back to business as usual with our episode discussing Who Let You Go! check out our instagram!

Welcome back to another nearly incomprehensible episode. In our defense, we were one week away from seeing the Thrasher tour at the time of recording. Today's topic: When The Dreams Run Dry! Tune in for lots of talk about migratory birds, dying, aging, and space. We also discovered our new motto: we're laughing because we're happy. (Thrasher tour recap episode coming soon.) check us out on instagr...

It's finally time to cover a song that we've (probably) been wanting to discuss since episode one: A Crippling Blow. A near-unanimously loved bonus track with hard-to-decipher lyrics, we are simply obsessed with this one. Topics include baroque pop, whatever Brandon is saying in verse two, and a broken promise. Check us out on Instagram!

This week, we're talking about Be Still! We're also spending about 15 minutes talking about Thrasher, the upcoming tour, and revisiting the My Chemical Romance Podcast. But after that, we ask maybe one of the most important questions of the decade: is Be Still a mirror song?* *We don't explain what this means in the episode because we're assuming you're not new around here. A mirror song, in KSP t...

We hope you enjoy your stay! It's good to have you here with us at the Killersluts Podcast to talk about the capstones for Sam's Town, which means that we get to talk about Sam's Town, and we love Sam's Town! Strap in for our discussion about the origins of these songs, Royal Albert Hall performances, and allusions to Hotel California. check out our Instagram!

We're back to talking about Pressure Machine! This time: Quiet Town. Tune in to hear more train talk, a lot of derailment from us (sorry), seeing Quiet Town live in 2022, and small-town living. check out our instagram!

This week, we intercepted an email sent from Brandon to Bono, which posed the question, "Have all the songs been written?" This episode features some strong opinions. Topics of discussion include: an alternate fan perspective, Mark Knopfler's guitar, and the cohesion of Wonderful Wonderful. check us out on Instagram!

This week we are talking about Joy Ride! This universally loved song off of Day & Age is not universally loved, it turns out. Maybe that was only the case for critics in 2008. Tune in to hear about Joy Ride (Night Version), Brandon's defence of saxophone, and Katie's misunderstanding of the term "rag top." Check us out on Instagram! (Yes, this episode was recorded before all of those announcem...

This week, we're talking about all these things that we've done. Grammy-nominated and setlist staple, All These Things That I've Done is genuinely one of the best songs ever written. Tune in to hear some scandalous background on the song, and to listen to us try not to talk over each other for an hour and a half. We were just really excited about it.

This week on the podcast, we are talking about the best song that has ever been written, I Can't Stay. Topics of discussion include another sun/son debate, the concept of putting the words "exoneration" and "eraser" into your song, and the recontextualization of the song on the Wonderful Wonderful tour. check us out on instagram!

This week, we're tackling Spirit! (For real this time.) Tune in to hear us revisit The Killers' latest song and discuss the meaning and Brandon's nose.   check us out on instagram!

We know what you want... we're going to record and publish an episode of the podcast about Midnight Show tonight... if you can keep a secret... Part two of our Murder Trilogy episodes, this song is so so good. Strap in to hear us discuss the death of Jenny, and which bodies of water are big enough to have tides without being oceans. Connect with us on Instagram!

This is the world (that) we live in! Tune in for gushing about Day & Age, the best album that has ever been made, as well as a live watch of The Killers' third-best music video (according to Katie). And lots of talk about mirrors. We are in KSP "mirror-song" central.  check us out on instagram!

This week, we're back on the street! Whatever that means! We've got another Battle Born to discuss today, and it's a sleeper hit. Tune in for a conversation about MORE infidelity, connections to other songs on the album, and ancient Mesopotamian bowls. check us out on instagram!

This week, we're talking about Rut! We've got some complicated feelings about this song, so strap in for that! These thoughts are too complicated to write a good description!   check us out on instagram!

This week, we wanna know if the answer is no, and if it might be possible to change your mind if it is. What is the question? Brandon doesn't say, but it's probably something really sweet. Tune into this episode to hear some of the drama behind the release of Change Your Mind and the Change Your Mind shirt incident of 2004. check us out on Instagram!

You're looking at the man! In this extra long episode, we gush about our deep love for the subject of The Man, aka, Brandon Flowers circa 2004. This episode features lots of Ronnie quotes (happy 50th bday Ronnie!) and a music video watch-along at the end. Be warned, things get a little crazy   check us out on instagram!

Hard times don't come until tomorrow! This week, we're talking about Move Away. We are all obsessed with this song, which just so happened to be on the Spider-Man 3 soundtrack. Brandon's got a bad habit of mumbling, especially on this track, so tune in for lots of discussion about what we think he may be saying. check out our Instagram!

In our first episode of the new year, we're in the lightning fields of love! For the first time in KSP history, opinions are kind of split on this song! Tune in to hear our praises and grievances about the song, and then you can decide whose side you're on. check out our instagram!

INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED BEFORE BRANDON'S INSTAGRAM Q&A WHERE HE COMPLETELY DUNKED ON US AND REVEALED THAT FLAMINGO 3/4 AS WELL AS THE SOLO TOUR ARE HAPPENING IN 2026. SORRY BRANDON. WE DIDN'T MEAN ANY OF THE AWFUL THINGS WE (or our fans) SAID. He also said the Hot Fuss DVD is still happening, so we're sorry about that as well. Happy New Year! Check us out on Instag...

This week, we decided to reintroduce ourselves because we figured new listeners might check out this episode first. We were absolutely terrible at this, so skip to about 25 or 30 minutes in if you're only here to listen to us talk about Mr. Brightside and not... Spotify Wrapped and fanfiction about ourselves. Anywho, this week we're talking about Mr. Brightside! This is the song that started it al...

This week's episode is completely normal. We're talking about the song All The Pretty Faces, written by The Killers while on the Hot Fuss tour in 2005. We state objective facts about the song with zero bias, and you, as the listener, can draw your own conclusions from those facts. Honestly, the episode is kinda boring, so maybe you can just skip this one. Nothing weird happens. At all. check out o...

If all of our episodes are numbered, why do we keep counting? Tune in this week to hear us gush on what we consider to be one of the best songs of all time--Why Do I Keep Counting? In this episode, we discuss the toll of life on tour, wanting impossible answers from a higher power, and Brandon's fear of flying. We also do a lot of singing. (HELP ME GET DOWN, I CAN MAKE IT!)   check out our instagr...

For our 50TH EPISODE, we're talking about the title track of the album that returned us to our TK phase. Tune in for talk about big things vs small things, Brandon's falsetto, and the real-life story about a mattress on a hardwood floor. Check out our Instagram!
