Brandon Flowers vs. Green Day
Brandon Flowers is offended by Green Day's "American Idiot." Says the Killers' Sam's Town [portrays America] as a "more positive place."
"You have Green Day and 'American Idiot'. Where do they film their DVD? In England. a bunch of kids screaming 'I don't want to be an American idiot' I saw it as a very negative thing towards Americans. It really lit a fire in me." (NME)
I enjoy the Killers, and it was fun watching them rise, but dude is spreading douchebaggery so fast and so furiously that I'm increasingly at ease with my contempt towards them.
Better Together?
With a little help from their net-bots on the Hot Fuss page, Amazon comes through with the best punchline to this post.
