Day & Age by The Killers
Day & Age is an album by The Killers, released in 2008. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 69 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Human”, on 36 lists with a best position of #6.
Day & Age, the Killers' third album, came out on Island in November 2008, and Brandon Flowers called it the band's most playful record. The Las Vegas four-piece, Flowers singing and playing keyboards, Dave Keuning on lead guitar, Mark Stoermer on bass and Ronnie Vannucci Jr. on drums, sound like they are having a ball.
"Human" is a gleaming, pulsing synth-pop anthem built for arenas, "Spaceman" is euphoric and a little bit ridiculous in all the right ways, and "A Dustland Fairytale" is the big, cinematic ballad, swelling like a Vegas marquee at dusk. Flowers wears his heart right out on his sleeve. It topped the UK chart like every album they've made, sent them out on the Day & Age World Tour, and had sold three million copies worldwide by 2015.
