The Killers - Sawdust
Date written: Oct 25 2008
4 stars out of 5
All of us have bought an album the week of the release and then have a “Special Edition” come out with bonus tracks and live content. We all feel frustrated when this happens but thankfully “The Killers” have had the heart to release a compilation album with all the bonus stuff on it, so we don’t have to go out and buy 10 different editions of the same album.
Overall, this album is pretty solid. Some tracks that stood out were, “Tranquilize”, “All the Pretty Faces”, “Daddy’s Eyes”, and “Romeo and Juliet”. The rest of the songs I felt were just filling in the spaces between these songs. “Romeo and Juliet” is my favorite track on the album. It’s a pretty long song at about 5 and half minutes long but I like it because the chorus is really simple, but gets the whole message of the song across.
I recommend this to all “The Killers” fans. If you liked their other albums, you will probably like this. I also recommend this to people who are just starting to explore “The Killers”. It’s a good album to listen to wherever you are.
