The actual day that Day and Age becomes a better album than Hot Fuss or Sam's Town in my mind is the day I go to my grave. I barely just about like Human and Spaceman, but that's it.

that doesn't make sense cuz you'd already be dead. day and age > sams town >>>> hot fuss

I.M.O.

Inexcusable, Hot Fuss for life

 

[JehutyRunner]

that doesn't make sense cuz you'd already be dead. day and age > sams town >>>> hot fuss

I.M.O.

That's kinda my point. It'll never be a better album than Hot Fuss/Sam's Town.

 

[arts&crafts]

Be Still is my favorite, but I prefer sad to happy

 

[Balphon]

To realize that Day & Age is better than Sam's Town is to succumb to the sweet embrace of infinity. What point is there in living after that?

Spoiler

Hot Fuss is still better than both of them, though.

 

[jamesinclair]

Hm, its a good album to study to

 

[Fry]

Our new album #BattleBorn is now available via @iTunesMusic http://smarturl.it/iBattleBornDlx http://pic.twitter.com/zcIShGKh

 

[Kagari]

So far I think I like Day & Age better.

 

[ErasureAcer]

3 more minutes!!!

edit-Deluxe version is mine! =)

 

[Medalion]

Yeah Im heading to buy the cd, yes..,cd after work tomorrah

Hooray!

 

[Surface of Me]

So far I think I like Day & Age better.

I'm thinking the same, even though I absolutely love A Matter of Time.

 

[ErasureAcer]

So far I think I like Day & Age better.

I like BB more than D&A. I'm only on Miss Atomic Bomb(track 7) on my first listen though. Besides Runaways...the other first 5...I liked Here With Me the most so far.

Just finished MAB...good song. =)

Rising Tide I think is the first dud.

 

[Medalion]

Gonna have to agree first half of album is the best

 

[JehutyRunner]

So far I think I like Day & Age better.

D:

 

[ErasureAcer]

Flesh and Bone remix is stellar. Well worth the extra few bucks. Carry Me Home was good too. Now the last song...=( THE END....NOOOOO!!!

 

[tearsofash]

This album is so fucking boring.

that's a sigh of relief. I didn't want to be seen as a troll for hating this when everyone else likes it. But yeah, this is by far the most boring album I've listened to in the last few years. Dreadful.

 

[Deleted member 30609]

The first two tracks are strong but everything after feels so samey

 

[ErasureAcer]

This album is already growing on me with my second listen. Songs I didn't care for before sound a lot better.

 

[gimmmick]

Probably the only cd I'll be purchasing this year. It's also awesome to hear that the killers will be playing at the cosmo during new years eve weekend! They always put on a great show for the home town crowd ^^

 

[Exterminieren]

It's downloading now.

GUYS, IT'S DOWNLOADING NOW.

AHHHHH.

 

[i_am_ben]

Good Night, Travel Well is one of the best songs of the 21st century.

this man knows what's up.

 

[Solo]

Happy BB Day, GAF!

Now, to just get through these next 10 hours of work to be able to listen to it :_(

 

[kingellesar]

Miss Atomic Bomb really is an incredible track.

 

[Fry]

How many hours until the live concert?

I'm not good with timezones.

 

[SuperPac]

7.5 hours to the Amex Unstaged/Herzog (Zwei) show.

I'm starting to really love "From Here On Out" - if more Killers tracks come to Rock Band I could imagine that being a really fun track to play.

I'll be at UNI.
HAVING A TEST.


FUCK MY LIFE

I wonder if they'll keep the whole thing recorded on youtube? Officially?

Apparently it's running on the VEVO app on the 360 as well (it's advertised right up front on the dashboard) - and I've heard that yes, it will repeat after it's done so you should still be able to catch it not-live.

Thank god, that's less bad. Still, I wanted to watch with you guys =(

 

[Solo]

Yes. All 10 previous UNSTAGED concerts are there.

6 hours til I hear BB, and 7 hoours til the concert!

 

[Discotheque]

Second half of album is pretty damn boring but the first half is great. I think Flesh and Bone might be the best track.

But damn, Here with Me and particularly Way it Was really gets me

 

[metareferential]

I'm now able to listen through the entire album without asking myself "what was this song already?".

It's growing on me.

But damn, Here with Me and particularly Way it Was really gets me

Yeah, these two flat out destroy me. xD

 

[andymcc]

i ordered this on vinyl for my girlfriend (as she is a huge fan)... does anyone know if the vinyl is actually in stock.. well.. anywhere?

cuz i preordered it a month back and still no shipment.

nvm: looks like the vinyl was pushed back till sept. 25

 

[Fry]

I memorized Runaways, Flesh and Bone and Miss Atomic Bomb.

Fucking LOVED the lyrics.

 

[Kyon]

Cryingggg love everything. Your faves could never

 

[metareferential]

Couple pics of the deluxe edition.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

YES, GOT IT!

I'm sensing a trend with my "Favorites" playlist...

 

[killertofu]

Couple pics of the deluxe edition.

Is that the vinyl? Or CD?

 

[Red UFO]

This album is really, really boring. Flowers sounds like he always complaining about something.

 

[metareferential]

Is that the vinyl? Or CD?

CD.

I think that From here on Out should have been a track instead of a bonus one.

dumb-edit: well it is an actual track. I was thinking about Prize Fighter, of course.

 

[killertofu]

Is that the one from the online store? I've been wondering why the online special edition is 30 dollars

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Just finished listening to the full album (deluxe version) using my Zune pass and I love it. I pretty much enjoy every song. Great stuff!

 

[metareferential]

Is that the one from the online store? I've been wondering why the online special edition is 30 dollars

I got it for about 20 bucks from an online retailer here in Switzerland.

 

[Auron_Kale]

So debating on which version to pick up tonight, either deluxe or vanilla, but am unsure. Going in totally blind (like I do with each album and I've loved them all) so not sure if the extra tracks are worth it.

Also, I have the vanilla version of Day & Age, but noticed that there were also bonus tracks on the deluxe version. Worth picking up the deluxe for the extra tracks?

Thanks.

Yes! Prize Fighter is one of the best songs and it's an extra. The other two are good, but not great. Definitely worth the extra money though.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Awesome.

And how about Day & Age? Worth re-buying for extra tracks? Or just listen on YT instead?

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Awesome.

And how about Day & Age? Worth re-buying for extra tracks? Or just listen on YT instead?

The Day and Age extras are a little more iffy for me. Maybe listen to them on YT and then decide if you want to spend the extra $?

 

[louie]

Good Night, Travel Well is one of the best songs of the 21st century.

Yeah, it was a great song. Is there anything similar to it on Battle Born?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

The Jacques Lu Cont remix was good, but I dunno, I like it less than his other remixes.

 

[Auron_Kale]

The Day and Age extras are a little more iffy for me. Maybe listen to them on YT and then decide if you want to spend the extra $?

That's what I figured. I thought Day & Age ended perfectly on Good Night, Travel Well so any bonus song after it would seem superfluous. Will go that route instead and spring extra dollars for BB deluxe.

Thanks again for your help!
