Brandon Flowers Announces Solo Album

     The Killer's lead singer Brandon Flowers has announced that he'll spend his band's hiatus putting out his first solo album.  Entitled Flamingo, the only clue as to the disc's sound comes from the looped electronic track with pinging synth and falsetto "ahhhhh"s playing on the band's website.

     Drummer Ronnie Vannucci is also keeping busy during the band's break by playing in the super group Mt. Desolation with members of Keane, Mumford & Sons, Noah and the Whale and the Long Winters.
