The Killers are an American rock band formed in Las Vegas in 2001 by Brandon Flowers and Dave Keuning. The band went through a number of early lineup changes, but by 2002 they had settled on a lineup of Flowers, Keuning, Mark Stoermer and Ronnie Vannucci Jr.. The band's name is derived from a logo on the bass drum of a fictitious band portrayed in the music video for the New Order song "Crystal". The band has released six consecutive chart-topping studio albums: Hot Fuss, Sam's Town, Day & Age, Battle Born, Wonderful Wonderful, and Imploding the Mirage. They have also released a B-sides and rarities compilation, Sawdust; a live album, Live from the Royal Albert Hall; a greatest-hits album, Direct Hits; and a Christmas compilation, Don't Waste Your Wishes. Since 2016 and 2017 respectively, both Stoermer and Keuning have had extended periods of hiatus from the band, though both remain official members.
