Dying Breed van The Killers is de KINK XL

Vandaag komt Imploding The Mirage uit, het nieuwe album van The Killers. De nieuwste single daarvan werd als volgt prachtig omschreven door NME: The catchy ‘Dying Breed’, a proud statement of beta male chivalry (“We’re cut from a stained glass mountain / Baby, we’re a dying breed”), opens with reworked motorik synth samples from Can and Neu!, then explodes into a chorus that they must’ve stolen from Springsteen’s lost soundtrack to Top Gun. There are literally explosions – at points they’ve clearly battle-armed Ronnie’s drum kit with tomahawks instead of tom-toms. Deze week de KINK XL!
