In 2001, Brandon Flowers was abandoned by the first band that he was in, a synth pop band known as Blush Response, after he declined to move with the rest of them to Los Angeles, California.
After he quit, Flowers responded to an ad in the Las Vegas Weekly by future guitarist David Keuning, about forming a band which was inspired by bands such as Oasis, The Cure, New Order, and The Smiths.
On December 1, 2004 they appeared as guests on Late Night with Conan O'Brien and on December 2, 2004, they made a guest appearance on the FOX television series The O.C. On January 5, 2005 they were the musical guest on Saturday Night Live.

 About The Killers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Brandon Flowers (yes, it is his real name) had been dumped by his one previous group, a synth-pop outfit named Blush Response, when he refused to move with the rest of the band to L.A. Cruelly ditched, but inspired by seeing Oasis play, he saw that his life needed more guitars.
When he clocked Dave Keuning’s small ad in a local paper naming that band as an influence he took it as fate that they should be together.
The early core of the band was cemented and their amazingly-previously-unused moniker appropriated from a New Order video.

Keuning tells me what the rest of the Las Vegas musicians are up to.
Having now been through both the UK and the US, the guys weigh in on the ways in which the band has been received in both places.
Keuning explains succinctly, "Hopefully [the listeners] will dance and then cry." While the comment was stated in a humourous tone, the idea behind it was genuine.

 The Killers
It is hard to believe that only two years ago, The Killers guitarist David Keuning was leaning up against the wall at Promowest Pavilion talking to musicohio as music fans walked by like nothing was happening.
Much like David Byrne of the 1980s, The Killers are suited up and looking suave as they play their radio-friendly, retro pop.
It wasn't that Keuning foresaw the future success, it was a statement made to lend the band songwriting credentials.

 The Killers: Making A Fuss   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Formed in late 2002, The Killers, Brandon Flowers (vocals and keyboards), David Keuning (guitars), Mark Stoermer (bass), and Ronnie Vannucci (drums), are the latest in an ever growing list of rock revivalists, honing past decades and borrowing from the obvious — New Order, The Cure and The Smiths to name a few.
Keuning does evoke some classic Siamese Dream -era riffs throughout Hot Fuss, and legendary producer Alan Moulder, who worked with the Pumpkins, did assist with the album’s final mixing.
And he liked Oasis, and I had mentioned Oasis in my ad.” Flowers responded to that ad, and as Keuning explains it, he was the only person to respond who wasn’t a freak.

The Killers are, from left, David Keuning, Brandon Flowers, Mark Stoermer and Ronnie Vanucci.
Flowers and Keuning quickly recruited a drummer and bassist to play gigs, adopted the band name the Killers (it was the name of a fictitious group in a New Order video) and went about the business of building a repertoire, a local following and a career.
But the band's songs also have a decidedly punchy guitar rock element courtesy of Keuning that gives the music much-needed edge and a modern sensibility.

The tunes may sound as if the players--vocalist/keyboardist Brandon Flowers, guitarist David Keuning, bassist Mark Stoermer and Vannucci--just stepped off the Queen Elizabeth II, but the four-piece actually got its start in that most garishly American of cities, Las Vegas.
As one of three Nevada natives in the combo (odd-man-out Keuning is an Iowan by birth), Vannucci speaks from experience.
In contrast, he absorbed every note of The Head on the Door by the Cure (the first tape he bought) and other albums of its ilk, which made him the perfect fit for Flowers, Keuning and Stoermer, all of whom had similar tendencies.
