that's because their sound is largely influenced by the new wave British bands in the 80s. Even the name, The Killers, is from a New Order music video for the song Crystal.

They were first signed to a British label and lived in the UK for a few years in the early 2000s. Then by 2005 with the explosion of the Indie scene in the UK it seemed as though they were just another UK Indie band who had routes in the Beatles, and Bowie, then New Wave, then Britpop.

I know a million dudes from the throughout the American Southwest that sound just like him. He has an accent I like to call, "White Gridiron Football Jock". It's similar to the accent of Canadian Hockey Players (Eg Letterkenny's Reilly and Jonesy) but slightly more Texan and less sports based slang. To be clear, it's a very American Middle Class and Suburban accent but it's well understood by everyone else here since we all know that type of person (which is why the high school bully jock you see in movies is so cringey because the accent is not quite right).

Chas O.T.E that's actually very well documented in their lore.

@benhopp479 5 жыл бұрын

Almost correct. It was Dave (the guitarist) who had the cassette of the chords. Ronnie (the drummer, wouldn't join the band for another year after Brandon and Dave met). And it was Brandon's 1992 Geo Metro that he first played it not a Subaru.
