One That Needs Multiple Listens
The Killers are back! YAY! I know they came out with a song last year, but I wasn't much of a fan of it. This song, however, is a refreshing energy that is much needed to bring back The Killers. Day and Age was fantastic, Battle Born was okay, and last years song was meh, but "The Man" is great.
So the title needs a little explaining. The song wasn't that great the first time I listened to it, parts were really good but the pauses and cuts in the song threw me off a lot. It honestly sounded like the song skipped or just end in the middle of a chorus. After listening a few times, I saw the good in the songs somewhat sudden stops and cuts. ANYWAYS! The rest of the song.
The upbeat electronic ambiance mixed with continuous guitar mixed with the fun and funky bass is really entertaining to the ears. The drums are solid, but a little less creative than what we are used to from the Killers. Honestly though, the electronic samples, the bass line and guitar are so good that the drums can be mediocre with no qualms. Brandon Flowers is great here, a lot of fun like usual, easy to sing to, but not annoying. I would recommend listening to this multiple times if you didn't like it the first time, it does take some getting used to, lyrically and the general sound/organization.

The album Wonderful Wonderful was announced to come out this year, but this is the only single so far released this year for it. I am super excited for it. New Killers, Gorillaz and Muse album this year? 2017 might be the best year in music this decade.
