Well, if you were hoping for an album of new material from Brandon Flowers and the boys, don't hold your breath!

The Killers have announced that they have plans to release an album full of covers by the end of the year!

"It's something that we've always talked about doing and we're still talking about," Flowers shared with NME.

He lamented about the group's trouble with song selection: "It's difficult for each of us to pick songs that represent us as individuals. I mean, I have a lot of personalities myself! I've gone through everything from Neil Diamond to the Cars."

So what'll land on the album of covers?

Drummer Ronnie Vanucci revealed his personal front runners for the record: "Genesis, Tom Waits, a little Cyndi Lauper, Iggy Pop" as well as "messing around with a couple of Fleet Foxes songs."

What would U like to hear The Killers cover???

"We’ve been embraced in Britain in a way that I’ll never understand, and it’s such a wonderful thing. But over here [in America], people are still so obsessed with Led Zeppelin and Nirvana, those sorts of bands, that nobody else is allowed [to grow]. It’s not just us; there are a lot of great bands that have been held down or confined by the influence of these people that we’ve put up on pedestals. I’m tired of it, you know? I just want to knock them all off! And people don’t like that attitude. It’s almost like they don’t believe that it’s possible that anybody else can be the real deal."

Random!

So Kanye had a little play date with Jared Leto and Brandon Flowers.

Play time included playing with musical instruments, followed by a snack time of graham crackers and apple juice.

Kanye had so much he wrote in his diary about it.

He SAYS:

I WAS WORKING ON THIS DOPE ASS SONG WITH JARED AND BRANDON STOPPED BY. I PLAYED THEM SOME OF THE NEW JEEZY BEATS AND BEFORE EVERYBODY BOUNCED BRANDON HOPPED ON THE KEYBOARD AND I HOPPED ON THE MPC. SHIT WAS DOPE. OH AND YES THOSE ARE SWAROVSKI CRYSTALS ON BRANDON'S SHIRT BY DRIES VAN NOTEN.

Cute!
