Album Notes & Community Reviews

Taking a brief hiatus from his duties as the frontman of The Killers, Brandon Flowers delivered a highly polished, spiritually earnest solo debut. Steeped deeply in the flashy, casino-lit mythology of his native Las Vegas, the album utilizes sweeping heartland rock structures and massive choruses to explore themes of faith, ambition, and Americana.
