The Killers Announce New Album 'Pressure Machine,' a 'Quieter, Character-Study-Driven' Release

The Killers will look inward and backward for their upcoming seventh full-length studio album, Pressure Machine. The band announced on Monday (July 19) that the “quieter, character-study-driven” collection co-produced by the band, Shawn Everett and Foxygen’s Jonathan Rado — who worked together on the band’s 2020 Imploding the Mirage album — is, in part a reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown that cut the Mirage promo run short.

“Everything came to this grinding halt. And it was the first time in a long time for me that I was faced with silence,” said singer Brandon Flowers in a statement. “And out of that silence this record began to bloom, full of songs that would have otherwise been too quiet and drowned out by the noise of typical Killers records.”

The album is described as a view into the “everyday realities of a small American town with a stark, tough beauty, and The Killers’ most restrained and resonant album yet.” The release noted that the collection was inspired by Flowers’ hometown of Nephi, Utah — described as a “close-knit community of 5,300 people with no traffic lights, a rubber plant, wheat fields, and the West Hills.” Flowers lived in Nephi from ages 10 to 16, and the album’s songs are based on his memories and stories about the people that impacted him growing up, with comments from current Nephi locals interspersed throughout.
