Album Notes & Community Reviews

Trading their synth-pop roots for heartland rock grandeur, The Killers aimed for Bruce Springsteen's territory on their sophomore album. 'Sam's Town' is a bombastic, dusty tribute to their Las Vegas home. It polarized critics but solidified their status as stadium fillers.
