The Killers come across as an inspired celebration of all that is great in rock and roll’s glorious past. The vocals on the third single from their deservedly acclaimed Hot Fuss album remind me of the Psychedelic Furs’ ‘Pretty In Pink’ while the guitar motif recalls Big Country’s ‘Fields Of Fire’.

Contains the, em, killer line. “I’ve got soul but I’m not a soldier.”
