A new Killers cover of the 1979 Joy Division song “Shadowplay†will appear on the soundtrack of a new movie called Control, directed by Anton Corbijan. The movie will come out next month.

All i can say is, Ian Curtis >>>>>>>>>> Brandon Flowers

 

There's some bands who should NEVER be covered, Joy Division being one :P

Erm, okay... each to their own. I think this could end up being great, tbh.

It depends, there's people who don't like cover versions at all... I usually like them but I reckon some of them are just diabolical!
well, i'm too young for to have heard the Joy Division original, so am looking forward to hearing both and comparing (albeit, with the Killers at a slight advantage, lol)

We just should be grateful they're still active in spite of having an album to promote... We've got great b-sides and bonus tracks, "A Great Big Sled" for Christmas and now this cover version, not to mention the amazing new single and video that is shaping up for the "Read My Mind" release :thumbup: :wub:

that is very true :wub: :thumbup: can't wait to hear the B-side to RMM either!

 

This Charming Man- thank for posting that vid!

 

to be honest, i don't really like the song, I mean it's ok but not that great (imo) however I think it will really suit Brandon's voice so wil just have to wait and see which version is better...

I agree with you there! I also think it might suit Brandon's voice very well... I like the song, though :D
