I had really hoped that Brandon Flowers‘ debut solo effort would have made more of an impact on the charts but that doesn’t appear to be the case. Flowers’ album had all the makings of a hit record…a sound similar to The Killers. Stuart Price serving as producer. Sounds like a pop masterpiece to me. While the album had a reasonably strong debut at #8 on the Billboard 200 chart and taking the #1 spot on the UK album chart. Debut single, “Crossfire” managed to take the #6 spot on the Billboard Alternative chart and #11 on the Billboard Rock chart, not to mention #8 on the UK Singles chart. Follow up single (which is not “Swallow It,” I guess) “Only The Young” was released in the States on October 16th and will be out in the UK on November 29th. The BEAUTIFUL Sophie Muller-directed video was filmed at Le Reve at Wynn Las Vegas. Muller previously directed Flowers’ in the video for “Mr. Brightside” alongside of his Killers cohorts.
