IMPLODING THE FUCKING MIRAGE
Killers fan for a few years, became obsessed with them after seeing glasto 2019. ITM came out and I liked it but i was willing to die on Sam’s Town’s hill. Bagged Emirates stadium tickets over 2 years ago and sort of grew out of them a bit in that time sadly. Saw them FINALLY last week and holy shit. Have been in love with the album since. They may have only played four songs but fuck me backwards. MOSW is heavenly, Dying Breed is heavenly, Caution is heavenly. Lightning fields is one of the most beautiful songs of recent years, Fire in bone is funky as fuck but still seems to carry some emotional resonance, Running towards a place is absolutely anthemic. But MY FUCKING GOD. WHAT A SONG. long live lindsay buckingham, long live the killers. Imploding the mirage is the best killers album. very stoned and pissed
Edit: Sorry, but yeah, I have intentionally left out Blowback, WTDRD and the title track…
