The Killers—taking their name from a logo on the bass drum of a fictitious band portrayed in the music video for the New Order song {Crystal}—formed in Las Vegas in 2001. The current lineup of Brandon Flowers (lead vocals, keyboards, bass), Dave Keuning (lead guitar, backing vocals), Mark Stoermer (bass, rhythm guitar, backing vocals), and Ronnie Vannucci Jr. (drums, percussion) have been together since 2002.
Making their recording debut with the new-wave post-punk album {Hot Fuss}, and hitting the top spot in the UK album charts, the band has released five studio albums to date. The most recent is last year’s release {Wonderful Wonderful}, which was the band’s fifth consecutive UK number one, and their first to reach that goal on the US Billboard album charts. Existing fans will be aware that although Stoermer and Keuning are still band members, they are not currently touring members.
