Killers or Kill Me?

I get the progression of rock and the need to create something new with your pieces to be known or respected among others. Yet, I still do not get the fascination of the Killers. There latest single, Human, does not do it for me personally. It is a sad attempt to stretch into new venues of creativity that a band like Panic at the Disco did a lot better on there first CD, "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out."
I am open to all facets of music, but it doesn't mean I have to like it and in the Killers situation, I don't. All of their music is a poppy sensation that a town like Las Vegas would generate. A place, where they are from, that isn't known for much more than strippers and gambling. I know Paul McCartney was at recent stop in Europe and is respectable, but maybe that it isn't enough for me. Respectable is an understatement, maybe I am not getting what is making them great.The fact that McCartney showed up to a show, makes them better than most. Apparently, I am missing something, but some people dont know that the Fogerty brother, from CCR, are from California and not the South. If Jimi or Jim Morrision and I were hanging out I guarantee that we wouldn't be listening to the Killers.
All I know is that the recent Brad Pitt Rollingstone magazine has more on the Killers. It seems every edition has something to say about the Killers. I would honestly want to hear what Tom Petty or Elton John is using as toilet paper. Whether or not they are using double strength or something so cool," I don't even know about yet," to quote Frank the Tank from the movie "Old School." I love Rolling Stone, for all the bad and good, and read it religiously. After the past year of Jonas Bros. and "the Hills," cover stories; it is hard. Please, lets make like a greek mythology and put the "muse" back in music.
