I am really enjoying this! It is very much The Killers do Erasure and I'm loving it.

Nearly a year since this was released. Is there any word on the new album?

Not really. Very quiet. They announced this as 'the first single from their 8th album', and said there would be multiple singles to follow that year (2022!). Then they mentioned maybe just an EP, then nothing.

 

My gut feeling is the tour knackered them and they didn't want to rush into it again so are taking their time on the album.

 

Hope they weren't disappointed this song didn't take off more.

I wonder will they release the album later this year, boy is great and it's a promising start, i do agree there is an erasure sound to this.

I always found it weird that Boy was supposed to be the lead of album 8 when it's a leftover from the previous album

kinda think it might end up being a one-off single

It was by far the best thing they'd done in ages.

? surely there is no way it was a leftover from the last album, sounds absolutely nothing like it :lol:

 

edit: oh I read the thread back and this was already discussed last year lol. It certainly wouldn't have fit on that album at all so the right choice to leave it off, glad it did eventually see the light of day anyway even if not leading into a new album yet.

It's far to good to be a left over.
