    All of the remaining tracks are 100 times better than "Human". I think you will be very impressed and pleased with the outcome of this album. I know I am. :D

    Fantastic! My excitement for Day & Age dropped after hearing Human, so its good to know that the rest of it is better. Also, you and I have pretty much the same music taste.:lol:

    Their first album is still my favorite, but Day & Age gets second followed by Sam's Town

    I absolutely LOVE "This IS Your Life" and "I Can't Stay"

    Yeah...I'd definitely rank the albums like this:

    01. Hot Fuss
    02. Day & Age
    03. Sam's Town
    04. Sawdust

    I never really cared for Sawdust much but I am still EXTREMELY happy this album was a success.

    Amazing album, I like every track, to be honest. My least favorite would probably be Joyride, still getting used to that.

    Anyone else love the bonus tracks?Crippling Blow is awesome and sounds pretty much unlike anything they've done while Forget What I Said sounds like an extra off Sam's Town.

    It's better than Sam's Town, to be honest. Hot Fuss is still on top(!) though.

    Just finished my first listen of the album, and I have to say, I really like it. Not really sure where id rank it among the rest of The Killers albums; i'll wait until I listen to it a few more times. After all, I didnt like Hot Fuss when I first heard it, and now its one of my favourites. In any case, Goodnight, Travel Well, Neon Tiger, Spaceman, Joyride, Losing Touch, The World We Live In, and This Is Your Life rank among the best the band have done. Although, I still dont really like Human. And I Cant Stay seems like a cruise line commercial song. Still, great song.

    Best 80's album I've ever heard.

    I say that because it has everything that made the 80's so great, with a hint of modern day synth rock. I hear some Cure influence in this, as well as maybe some slight Depeche Mode. It's brilliant.

    I'd go as far to say it surpasses Hot Fuss =).

    I don't know if I'd call it 80's but the whole album just gives off a holiday vibe to me. Losing Touch makes me wanna break out the Christmas tree just about now.

    Whenever me and my brother have both been home he's been playing it and it seems really good. I'll try listening to it in more depth at some point.
