I don't know who Amy Winehouse nor Spoon are…but can someone please explain the appeal of the Killers? I don't understand that band at all…

the appeal of the killers?

take the worst of 80s synthpop
combine it with the worst of 90s alternative.

put it in a 00-friendly media package with and market it to the masses.

they're terrible.
