The Killers return with new single ‘Bright Lights’.
The band are having an incredible year on the road, with their recent tour of the UK and Ireland culminating in a record-breaking six shows at London’s The O2 – more than 150,000 tickets were sold for the breathless run at the cavernous venue.
Of course, it all coincided with England’s Euro 2024 run – something The Killers managed to incorporate into their set, with headline-making results.

New single ‘Bright Lights’ comes as The Killers prepare to return to Las Vegas, hosting a special ‘Hot Fuss’ run at the Coliseum. Matching their bombastic impulses to Brandon Flowers’ Americana sketches, it fuses a gospel choir, rugged acoustic guitar, and stadium-worthy dynamics into a real hell-raiser of a single.
Tailor made for those epic live shows, it finds all four original band members – Brandon Flowers (vocals), Dave Keuning (guitar), Mark Stoermer (bass) and Ronnie Vannucci Jr (drums) – uniting as one.

The music video, directed by Micah Bickham, features the upcoming Las Vegas residency stage, and airs later today.
The Killers released their career-spanning compilation ‘Rebel Diamonds’ in December. In our review, CLASH wrote:
There’s something worthwhile about hearing the artists’ own curation – the dips and falls of the catalogue, as viewed from the inside. On music merit alone, ‘Rebel Diamonds’ is essential.
