Killers' classic albums, as a set. A band that deserves more recognition! Released in 2004, The Killers' debut album, "Hot Fuss," was a mega-hit, selling over 10 million copies worldwide. At the time of their debut, they were categorized in Japan as part of the new wave revival and post-punk revival. It's true that their starting point was a revival sound, heavily influenced by bands like The Cure, U2, The Smiths, and Depeche Mode. However, as you'll understand when you listen to "Hot Fuss," the biggest factor in The Killers' breakthrough had nothing to do with new wave; it was the strength of the incredibly catchy and friendly pop songs themselves.
