The Killers is an American rock band formed in 2001. Current members include lead vocalist Brandon Flowers, lead guitarist Dave Keuning, drummer Ronnie Vannucci Jr. and bassist Mark Stoermer.
The Killers’ 2004 debut, Hot Fuss, took influence from 80s synth pop and new wave and launched the band onto the international stage. It had four hit singles, including the band’s most recognizable song, “Mr. Brightside”.
Their most recent album, Pressure Machine, marked a significant change from their usual style, stripping away their anthemic tunes for a darker and more restrained sound.

After a week that’s seen Korn frontman Jonathan Davis and Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson contract Covid, and everyone from Garth Brooks and Neil Young to BTS and Nine Inch Nails cancel live events due to concerns about the virus, it briefly seemed like the Killers warmup show at New York’s Terminal 5 was in real jeopardy when a man who identified himself as the band’s doctor came onstage at the top of the night to address the crowd.

Guitarist Dave Keuning formed the Killers in 2001 when he took out an ad in a Las Vegas newspaper seeking musicians, and he’s a key creative voice in the group that co-wrote classics like “Mr. Brightside,” ‘Somebody Told Me” and “When You Were Young.” But he stepped off the road in 2017 to spend more time with his family, citing exhaustion. The group insisted he was still technically a member, but it became a little hard to believe when he didn’t participate in the sessions for 2020’s Imploding The Mirage...

Late last month, the Killers posted an Instagram Live video that sent their fan community into a state of hysteria. It not only shows them at work on a follow-up to their 2020 LP Imploding the Mirage, but it reveals that estranged guitarist Dave Keuning is back in the fold. There’s been no official announcement about his return, but the masked man at the 12-second mark is unquestionably Keuning. We’d recognize that hair anywhere.

When the Killers began work on their new album, Imploding the Mirage, they had virtually everything they needed: a batch of new songs, a seven-month break from the road, and a large home studio nestled away in Park City, Utah, where they could work and live without distraction. The only thing missing was their guitarist, Dave Keuning.

On Tuesday, the Foo Fighters released their (genuinely excellent) Wasting Light album, a snarling, knotty thing that, as anyone who bought a copy can attest to, also comes packaged with a snippet of the master tapes it was recorded on. I'll be the first to admit that it's a rather brilliant little marketing ploy, especially since I may have been the one who thought it up in the first place.

Rock band The Killers are assuring fans that they are not disbanding. The group, led by vocalist Brandon Flowers, said that while it is true they have canceled the Australian leg of their tour, they are not going away for good.
Rumors abound that the rockers - Flowers, Dave Keuning (guitar), Mark Stoermer (bass guitar), and Ronnie Vannucci Jr. (drums) - will disband after Keuning was reportedly quoted as saying their gigs in Australia would be their last shows "for a while."
The reports got stronger when The Killers announced they are abandoning their Australian show.

The Killers are desperate for a break - because they don't like each other any more. The "Human" rockers' friendships have been put to the test after spending months on the road together and are worried they will split up if they don't have some time apart soon.
However, with a crammed schedule of festival shows and their current Australian tour, the band - singer Brandon Flowers, guitarist Dave Keuning, drummer Ronnie Vannucci Jr. and bassist Mark Stoermer - look unlikely to be able to take time off until 2010. The group's management and lawyers are believed to be desperately trying to find a way to adjust their schedule.
A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "They're exhausted. They haven't had a break since they first formed and it has started getting to them."
"When they started out they were all good friends but they just don't seem to get on any more.
