The Killers

I have been listening to Hot Stuff by the Killers. I don't exactly like it, but I have listened to it, by choice, several times already. I may listen to it again. It sounds just like all those 80's English New Wave bands like New Order and the Smiths, except that the songs are all told from the point of view of a sociopath. Maybe the sociopath is what I like about it.

One thing I don't really like is that The Killers, like Franz Ferdinand, are totally gay while remaining sexually coy. I never thought it would come to this, but I much prefer Morrisey's Queen Bitch persona.
