Although they are Las Vegas, Nevada natives, the Killers have more in common with the retro-New Wave sounds of New York City than with the casino crooners most often associated with Sin City. On HOT FUSS, the shaggy-haired quartet matches 1960s garage attitude and Strokes-like vocal swagger with a danceable, bass guitar-driven sound that pays lavish tribute to '80s pop heroes Duran Duran and Simple Minds. With "On Top," the combo adds the soaring, delay-laden guitars of U2 and the Fixx, while "Somebody Told Me" features a bouncy disco beat that recalls the Pet Shop Boys. Not content to be pegged as a retro-revival act, however, the Killers imbue each song on this fierce debut with a healthy dose of new-millennium rock snarl.

5 stars Brilliant.
This album it 100% Pure brilliance. If you don't like it then you're probably not ready to come out of your corner and try something new. It's so beautiful I want to cry. I think that anyone who is a fan of David Bowie is automatically a fan of the Killers, and if you like Bowie and you don't like the killers... well then you're a liar, and you never liked Bowie in the first place. Brilliant, Brilliant BRILLIANT!

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

Hot Fuss
CD $6.79  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine." Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish ...

Modest Mouse Good News For People Who Love Bad News CD  (2004)

Hot Fuss
CD $9.69  4.5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
The Dirty Dozen Brass Band offers the opening fanfare for Modest Mouse's sixth full-length, GOOD NEWS FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE BAD NEWS, a fitting intro for the outfit's most majestic record to date. On their prior major-label recordings, the (formerly) indie icons opted for wandering, spacey arrangements to accompany Isaac Brock's magnificently obtuse poetics. GOOD NEWS revives the immediacy of the band's earlier releases, but furthers the production values (without too much polish), and out pours some of the most commanding pop-rock imaginable. The first single off of GOOD NEWS was the wonderfully catchy "Float On," with its syncopated, disco-like beat and Zen simplicity exemplified in the opening line "I backed my car ...

Interpol Antics CD  (2004)

CD $11.99  4.6 stars
The title of Interpol's second album, ANTICS, may conjure up images of carefree adventure, but anyone familiar with the New York City band's brooding post-punk sound knows that there's nothing lighthearted about their music. Although it's not a radical departure, ANTICS does reveal a broadening of the group's sonic palette. The ...

Green Day American Idiot CD  (2004)

Hot Fuss
CD $11.39  4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Rock opera and punk are usually two mutually exclusive musical styles. Then again, Green Day has never followed any rock rulebook, so it's not entirely surprising that the trio crafted a punk-rock opera that takes the Bush administration and its policies to task. It doesn't get any more pointed than a couplet from the frenetic title cut that states, "I'm not a part of a redneck agenda/Now everybody do the propaganda!" Under the guidance of any other group of agitated punks, the results of such an undertaking could easily become didactic. But with creative spearhead Billie Joe Armstrong at the helm, AMERICAN IDIOT is melodically driven, ...

Arcade Fire Funeral CD  (2004)

Hot Fuss
CD $11.89  4.5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Favorably compared to the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, and Broken Social Scene, the Arcade Fire's sound seems to come from a lifetime of listening to the Cure, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, and many others--even a dose of soul gets worked into these grand anthems. Chassagne delivers some spellbinding vocals on "Haiti," while the tinkling piano and strings on "Crown of Love" conjure up a heartbroken surfside prom. In 2004, this made many critics' year-end lists, and it's no wonder--the songs on FUNERAL are so packed ...

Damn The Hard Times
Damphools Damn The Hard Times CD  (2009)

Hot Fuss
CD $9.89  5 stars
Damn the Hard Times, the debut album from The Damphools, is solid proof that real American country music is as resilient today as it was when Hank Williams was chasing the white line in his powder blue Cadillac. And still as rural as the first time Bill Monroe stepped off the porch to play the world a song. Recorded in a day on a reel to reel (circa 1965), Damn the Hard Times is The Damphools middle finger to the “hard times” that American music and America in general has been facing for decades. Damn the Hard Times is raw and vintage with songs like “Memories in My Drink” soon to be getting play on college radio and internet stations across the country. The music is free and rustic. Foot stomping tunes like “Gonna Write a Song” bring you feverishly to your feet. While songs like “Long Road to San Antone” pay homage to the outlaw heroes of the 70’s. Damn the Hard Times is a record ...
