    For those of you that have heard it now, what do you guys think of it?

    I'd have to say that I might actually like it more than Hot Fuss...The songs flow very well and are very catchy.

    My favorites would have to be "Sam's Town", "Bling (Confession of a King)", and "Bones".

    Not bad at all. Will give it more time before I call it better than Hot Fuss, though.

    This album is nowhere near as bad as Rollingstone made it out to be. Yet, I kind of see their point. :rolleyes:

    With that said, I must say I like Hot Fuss better than Sam's Town. Hot Fuss just had a certain spark to it that I feel Sam's Town lacks. That doesn't mean Sam's Town isn't a good album. It is and I am really liking the songs "Bling (Confessions of a King)", "Bones", and "The River Is Wild". Nice effort by The Killers but it's just not as good as Hot Fuss.

    I don't like it so far =\. I thought Hot Fuss was way more catchy.

    This album is missing the charm Hot Fuss had, but 'Read my Mind' and 'Bones' are pretty good songs.

    I've only heard the single, and it's certainly lackluster.

    I like the single. It sounds like old U2, dare I say it.

    I just listened to the whole album and the only song I really like is the single. It's the only one that sticks.

    I like the album but it could've been way better, I think.

    It's good. Not as good as Hot Fuss, though.
