...The Killers, Hot Fuss
A little bit about the album
The album was released in June 2004. It reached number one in the album charts in the UK, and in Australia. It is the first album The Killers released.
The album cover front is light blue and on the middle of the front it says 'the killers' in big white letters. 'the' is in small letters on top of the 'k'. Underneath this it says in smaller, spaced out, dark blue capitals it says 'H O T F U S S'. At the bottom there is a picture of the tops of some blue sky scraper buildings with lights on them. - As you can see in the picture (just to make sure you have the right one).
The disc itself is dark red.

Advantages: Some very catchy songs with good beats, mostly upbeat tracks which I like Disadvantages: Some 'fillers'
...I first noticed The Killers when I saw the video for their song Somebody Told Me, which was a really catchy light-ish rock song and I enjoyed the other singles from that album.
I didn't hear much from the band (who hail from Nevada, USA) for a year or so until I heard the single Human from this album, Day and Age, on the radio. It was also really catchy and up beat and so when I found out about Amazon offering £3 worth of free MP3 downloads on Christmas day and boxing day, I decided I wanted to purchase this album as part of that deal, so I was glad when I found out that it was available for exactly £3.
For £3 its extremely cheap, as it turns out that this is IMO a very good album, with a number of catchy tracks that the more you listen to, the catchier and better they become. It is one of those albums where on first listen, it...
