• Brandon Flowers: The Killers Are the Best Band of the Last 15 Years

  • Brandon Flowers, Evan Rachel Wood Get Literary in 'Can't Deny My Love' Music Video [WATCH]

  • Brandon Flowers on The Killers: Band Suffers from a 'Lack of Drive,' Next Album Will Be 'Different'

    Brandon Flowers of The Killers knows why his band is not more successful. In a recent chat with "NME," he said The Killers suffer from a "lack of drive." That is some harsh criticism considering they have two platinum albums under their belt with "Hot Fuzz" and "Sam's Town," as well as strong releases with "Day & Age" and "Battle Born." Flowers cites U2 as a band who was more in tune with their time and generation. "There's definitely a drive that we're lacking," Flowers said. "It takes a lot of work and that's fine, everybody's different, everybody's gonna have their own road that they go down. Other than Coldplay I'm not sure anybody's made the dent that U2 were able to make. They were so much a part of the landscape and the timing of when they were coming out." That is a tough comparison. U2's first album came out in 1980 during an era that relied heavily on albums. "Hot Fuzz" was released in 2004 in the midst of a still-changing landscape.
