Direct Hits

The Killers' first greatest hits collection arrives via Vertigo as a streamlined entry point to their decade-spanning catalog of anthemic indie rock. Spanning from “Mr. Brightside” through deeper cuts, Direct Hits captures the Las Vegas quartet’s knack for crafting arena-ready hooks wrapped in synth-driven production and brooding introspection. Essential for newcomers; completists will note the inclusion of previously unreleased material and fresh arrangements that recontextualize their most indelible moments.
