Killers Frontman Brandon Flowers Ignores Kaiser Chief Critic

 

The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers has dismissed Kaiser Chief Nick Hodgson's recent criticism his band are too ambitious to become as big as U2.

 

Flowers has been left confused by drummer Hodgson's comments, not understanding how a band can be too hungry.

 

He says, "Hodgson was asked who would be the next U2 and he said it wouldn't be The Killers because we wanted it too much. That doesn't make any sense though, because all the bands who have really done well have wanted it just as much as we want it. Things don't fall into your lap, it's about a hunger and a desire and, of course, we do have that. I wouldn't be too disappointed if we're not a U2-sized band, but I wanna be in The Killers - not a B-list band. I've got a strong ompetitive streak, it's just in my blood, and that will never go away."

He's absolutely right! You don't get anywhere if you don't have ambition & fire. What a stupid thing to accuse someone of, having too much ambition. :rolleyes:

I agree, I mean, if you don't have any ambitions then you shouldn't do things at all :lol:

lol, well said -_- :P

And why would The Killers want to be the next U2?? I see both bands as two completely different styles.

Oh, well... The Killers are successful enough, maybe not on U2's league but they have their recognition!

very, i would say, i think they will be going bigger everytime -_-

 

Hopefully they get to last and be relevant for years and years to come!
