The Killers continue to throw coal in the hype train on their way to releasing the new album ‘Wonderful Wonderful’ due out September 22nd, and a surprising collaborator has joined them. Actor Woody Harrelson who killed zombies in ‘Zombieland’ and wore an odd wig in ‘the Hunger Games’, contributed a dramatic monologue reading prior to the band’s live debut of a brand new song ‘the Calling’. The video of it all comes from a show this week in the U.K. at Brixton Academy.

Minutes before they tore it up at Lolla, Lauren caught this exclusive interview with Brandon Flowers of the Killers backstage at Grant Park
This UK show played in a smaller-than-expected venue considering the Killers are fresh off performing to thousands at Lollapalooza and London’s Hyde Park. The show featured several rarities the Nevada band has not played since 2009 including the ‘Hot Fuss’ deep cut ‘Andy You’re a Star’ and ‘Sweet Talk’ off the ‘Swadust’ album.
This should serve as a real tempting teasing for their United Center show in January, it’s makes my head bob and my shoulders shimmy as I typp…type this.
