14 June 2017 – (Toronto, ON) – The Killers have announced details of their new single, The Man – a dazzling first taste of the band’s eagerly anticipated fifth album. Premiered worldwide earlier today as “Hottest Record In The World” on BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac show, the single is available for download and on all streaming services now via Island Records/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. Listen to The Man, here.

The Man is the first new album material from The Killers since Battle Born in 2012. Recorded with the producer Jacknife Lee during album sessions in Las Vegas and Los Angeles, the song is the first single from the group’s soon-to-be completed new album, which is shaping up to be their most sonically forward thinking record yet; an LP bursting with all of the blazing choruses and arena-filling anthems that make The Killers one of the world’s biggest and most beloved rock bands.

Renowned for his ability to paint evocative pictures of small town American life, Killers frontman Brandon Flowers turns that remarkable skill on himself with The Man. The song finds Brandon looking back on his younger self, the “Brandon Flowers” persona from their Grammy-nominated debut Hot Fuss, and reconciling that wide-eyed character with the man he is now.  It’s also the most infectious pop song of their already accomplished career.
