I wasn't aware that he said that re: Franz Ferdinand though. That is a spectacular U-Turn. But then Alex from FF did call him a C**t.

I sometimes try to forget The Killers made something after their first album

Me too Deets, me too. Hot Fuss isn't perfect either, Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll is so appalling that they left it off the American version of the album.

If I recall correctly, Alex's comment was in response to Wires U-Turn.
