“Your Side of Town” is the new single from The Killers. This is the first new release from the band since the release of the single “Boy” last August.
The track’s author is Brandon Flowers, the frontman of The Killers. The production is in collaboration with Stuart Price and Shawn Everett.
“Your Side of Town” departs from The Killers’ familiar sound, embracing a British synth-pop style reminiscent of the late 80s and early 90s. The band has acknowledged this shift, characterizing the track as an homage to the synth music that has influenced their musical journey over the years, as reported by Pitchfork.
The song was meant to announce the band’s new album “Rebel Diamond,” featuring more songs with a similar sound. Yet, the singer, Brandon Flowers, has lost enthusiasm for the project and prefers a return to the “Pressure Machine” sound. Audiences not enthralled by the “new Killers” can sigh in relief. The band will not release similar songs in the future.
“Halfway through recording I realized, ‘I can’t do this’… I don’t think you’ll see us making this type of music anymore.“
said Flowers
The last album released by The Killers was “Pressure Machine” in 2021. The band must decide whether to continue with the “Pressure Machine” musical direction or revert to their familiar sound.
