The Killers estrenaron en 2017 su disco Wonderful Wonderful y con el que hicieron una extensa gira alrededor del mundo, inclusive dijeron que estaban listos para seguir grabando música juntos. Pues ahora decidieron darse una vuelta en el show de Zane Lowe en Beats 1 para estrenar un nuevo tema titulado Land Of The Free y que pueden escuchar a continuación.
Brandon Flowers habló del tema y dijo que está inspirado en todo lo que está sucediendo actualmente en los Estados Unidos.
I think it’s a very important time right now. And ‘enough was enough’ is basically where it comes from. It started in my mind around when Sandy Hook happened, and as a father how that affected me. And then it just started stacking up — things like Eric Garner and Trayvon Martin, things like what’s happening at the wall. This stuff didn’t seem to be in harmony with the values that I believe my country was founded on. I would start the song and then I would put it away and I’d say, ‘I’m not the guy to do this,’ or I’d feel inadequate, waiting, somebody’s going to write this song. Then it just piled up … Las Vegas, Orlando, Parkland, and it just kept coming and I was just like, I have to get this out.
