20 tracks — a "best of" to celebrate twenty years of making music
you may already know the killers: especially for their pumping radio anthems like "Mr. Brightside" and "Somebody Told Me"
But there's so much more here: ballads, lullabies: Runaways, Quiet Town, Be Still, Pressure Machine are all hidden diamonds.
I often hear The Beatles when I listen to the Killers.

I've probably already recced this album and this band several times. Won't be the last time though. Favorite.
I generally don’t like greatest hits albums, but this is one I’ve always gravitated to, mainly because it only has songs from my favorite era of the Stones, the 60s to the beginning of the 70s, rather than being a standard big retrospective compilation. Been giving it a lot of play this past week. Now I feel like firing up some Aftermath or Between The Buttons!
One of the most controversial album mixdowns updated from 1985 to 2024. A pinnacle of indie rock and a deep introspective into balancing talent and lifestyle. With the passing of guitarist Slim Dunlap 2 days ago, The Replacements are still America’s band.
this is worthy of celebration: the lack of video—autoplay video, noisy inane video, panicky video, algorithmic, dumb video, rabbit hole video, any video—on pi.fyi is a good thing
