The Killers were set to release their new album Imploding the Mirage on May 29 through Island Records, and the long and short of it is that they're not going to do that anymore. But they have shared a new single from the album.
"Fire in Bone" is an uptempo dance pop tune that sounds an awful lot like the band's last album Wonderful Wonderful, albeit with the more classic uplifting Killers dynamics on its chorus.
As for Imploding the Mirage, the album will be postponed, but it hasn't received an official release date just yet. A press release suggests an announcement will be made about the new release date in the coming weeks.
As previously reported, the album features collaborations with k.d. lang, Weyes Blood, the War on Drugs' Adam Granduciel, Blake Mills and Lucius.
The Killers haven't cancelled the bulk of their tour just yet, although they did move their spring U.K. shows from spring 2020 to spring 2021. Time will tell if the other dates get similarly reshuffled.
For now, hear "Fire in Bone" below.
