| I notice that a lot of people really haven't liked a The Killers CD since Hot Fuss. I suppose if you are person who expects a band to never grow in their creativity or music styles, you might be disappointed in this CD.
As another reviewer stated, this CD takes a few initial listens to adjust to the new sound before you really start to appreciate the lyrics and the outright beauty of many of these songs. "A Dustland Fairytale" is haunting lyrically, vocally, and musically. I see ... Read More: |

| Pretty disappointing with not a single remarkable song. After so many great albums over the years this is a miss rather than a hit. |

| Buying this album was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. For the money, I've never had anything blow my mind quite like this album. It's obvious. Buy it now. |

| When I first heard a Killers song on the radio I thought it was okay, then I saw them on SNL and found them interesting.
Eventually I went and purchased this CD and I am very happy I did. Maybe they are not breaking new ground here, and their influences can be heard, but it still works. They are combination of The Cure, Depeche Mode and even U-2 (as you can hear on Midnight Show ) with a bit more of a rock leaning than some of the 80s bands such as The Cure, with songs that are very well done. ...

| For myself, I wouldn't care if The Killers came out with an album of B-sides like Sawdust every 6 months if all of the songs are as great as these are. The songs on here are a mixture of the sound of Hot Fuss and the sound of Sam's Town and then a dash of neither for good measure. With the exception of "Move Away" I can, and have, listened to most of the single tracks with the repeat button on because they are that great!

| ...I really should have kept to buying their singles on iTunes. The rest of the album is a slight departure from the three funky, dance, hits: "Great DJ, "That's Not My Name", and "Shut Up..."
The rest of the album is forgettable, and if you actually bought the whole thing, expecting amazing music- regrettable. I'm usually reluctant buying whole album from new artists that I've only heard a few songs from, and this is exactly why. |

| Nice packaging job but a bit overblown. The
new DVD with two songs and the best Interviews I've seen the 'Tricksters do in years. Better package than the 'Tricksters did with the '04 LIVE/Interview disks for that Japan trip which was for the 25th year Concert. Three disks is one too many and another DVD with a whole '08 concert would have been better, but still very good! Hopefully another 10 years to go, eh guys? |

| Brandon Flowers's voice conveys more emotion than any of his other work, and the other band members do the same. Sam's Town is an experience and relates to me so much more than most other rock. I think the only reason sources reviewed the CD poorly was because of Rolling Stone. They thought the emotion and feeling was fake and cliche, probably because they didn't listen to the CD more than five minutes.
If they had, they would have found something deeper. |

| This is another Greatest Hits package I have picked up to fill in for missing/lost CDs.
It has all the hits that I remember from the Pyromania and Hysteria when Def Leppard was their most popular. I know they had a couple of records before then, but I never really listened to the band until I saw Photograph on MTV. Bringin On The Heartbreak is a real good song from an album before they became famous with Photograph. |

| Stop Making Sense is one of the truly great albums, and this video adds immeasurably to the audio experience. I was concerned about some reviewer's complaints that the video and audio are out of synch for the first couple of songs, but this doesn't bother me at all. I'm too busy soaking up the pleasure of watching an incredible group of musicians at work. Highly recommended! |
