In the October 4th issue of Rolling Stone Brandon Flowers likens the new Killers album to the classic Smiths album 'Hatful of Hollow'. He mentions that the new Killers CD is called 'Sawdust' and is a collection of b-sides and rarities like Oasis' 'The Masterplan' and The Smiths 'Hatful of Hollow'. He goes on to mention how he likes both 'Masterplan' and 'Hatful' collections and that 'Sawdust' is like those recording in that it is an "album in between new studio albums". The Killers 'Sawdust' will be issued sometime in November. This issue of Rolling Stone has yet another full page, full color ad of the current Morrissey tour in the back.

      The Killers are Shit. The 1st Album was good but then they went all U2 on the second....I dread to think what the 3rd album will be like. Bands get too famous too quickly these days.

        Just to clarify, not confuse -"liken" doesn't mean they are trying to or think they do sound like the Smiths (tho a big influence). Says Brandon of their compliation of outtakes, B sides, remixes and covers due out in Nov (RS 9/20 pg 39) "I've always enjoyed rarities collections, I was a big fan of the Smiths' Hatful of Hollow and Oasis' The Masterplan, so it's nice to put all this stuff into one package". I think they rock!!
