      You can hear it it his voice. In a good way. By the way he sounds these days you can tell he’s seen a lot in his lifetime. If you haven’t already heard, listen to Chinatown by Bleachers featuring him. Such a great song.

As a lifelong Bruce fan and a newer Killers fan at the time, it was mind-blowing to me because...oh man... that for me was a moment, it felt like a Springsteen torch being passed on to a new generation. To this day I still cant unhear Bruce's influence pulsing through that entire song... So much love for this collab.

      Man, before Pressure Machine those few songs stood out just a bit. But now they’re a show of how mature the Killers are and always have been. That’s exactly why I really like Pressure Machine. It’s got the depth of Sam’s Town and Day and Age combined with the sound of Battleborn, and the voice of Hot Fuss. Just an amazing culmination of what the Killers have made.

    This is one of my all time favorite Killer's song and Springsteen is my all time favorite artist. Growing up with Springsteen's musical magic coloured my world and shaped my hopes and dreams like the characters in his songs. I remember listening to the record "Live 1975-85" over and over with my headphones on, eyes closed, and dreamed to one day to see Springsteen live and sing along to every word he sang. The dream came true and the energy and magic of every Springsteen live show is like some spiritual experience. So all these years passed to see this collaboration, the energy, the soul, the passion in Dustland captured so majestically, keeps me dreaming and keeps my soul alive...thanks for the music, the art and magic...

I dont know many uptempo songs that give me the chills the way this song does. Its only the fourth Killers-song i got to know.

    3:12 "Don't you know the kingdom's under siege and everybody needs you." Brandon's voice cracks just a bit, it makes me cry. I lost my dad at 24; we always thought my ma was the one that held us together but it wasn't - it was my dad. We were the type of family that just liked hanging out at the house, even as teens and in our 20's. I have two brothers; one is nine years old, the other is three years older and my sister is seven years older. Our friends would come over too. On top of that, my dad INSISTED on inviting our extended family over for holidays and just to check-in - usually 30-40 relatives. None of that has happened since his funeral - almost 13yrs ago.
