Title: Too experimental for me
Review: The first I'd heard of The Killers (like most people's first experience with them) was "Somebody Told Me". I absolutely loved this song. Then along came "Mr. Brightside"; another good song. So, I took a chance figuring that the rest of the CD would sound similar. I was very wrong. Their sound leans more toward the synthesizer than the guitar. The two songs I previously mentioned are really the only two which have the guitar-driven melody and catchy chorus. Most of the songs seem to plod along. I kept saying to myself "is this song over yet?" If you like Franz Ferdinand, then you will probably like this CD. I was expecting something more along the lines of The Used. As for me, I'll be pawning my copy of this album (after I burn the two songs I like).
Is the review positive or negative?
