The Killers – Live From The Royal Albert Hall (DVD & CD) by Island Records

Description

Now The Killers know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall. On July 5-6th, during their 8-country European festival tour, the multi-platinum VMA Award-winning, Grammy-nominated band performed two historic nights at the legendary Kensington venue. LIVE FROM THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL, The Killers' first official DVD release, is a spectacular 22-song live concert experience – filmed in HD (with 'Fan's Eye View' alternative camera angle) and full 5.1 sound. The package, with live performances on the DVD plus a 17-song live CD from the shows (unavailable elsewhere), will be released November 10th on Island Records. Killers fans will appreciate how faithful the DVD is to the band's sight and sound onstage. Moreover, the songs cut across all four of the Killers' album releases, from their debut Hot Fuss (“Somebody Told Me,” “Smile Like You Mean It,” “Mr. Brightside,” “All These Things That I've Done,” “Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine”); to Sam's Town (“For Reasons Unknown,” “Bling (Confessions Of A King),” “Sam's Town (acoustic),” “Read My Mind,” “The River Is Wild,” “When You Were Young”); to Sawdust (“Shadowplay,” “Sweet Talk”); and Day & Age (“Human,” “This Is Your Life,” “The World We Live In,” “Joy Ride,” “I Can't Stay,” “Losing Touch,” “Spaceman”).

The DVD, who's running time is over 2 hours, is packed with bonus extras – starting with an additional five songs from the festival tour: “Tranquilize” (live at the Oxegen Festival in Ireland, July 12th); “Human” and “Mr. Brightside” (from Hyde Park in London on June 26th); and “Smile Like You Mean It” and “When We Were Young” (from the V Festival in August). A behind-the-scenes documentary, including interviews with crew and fans, rounds out the bonus content on the DVD. The 78-minute live CD was mastered by British producer Stuart Price.
