Sam's Town is the second studio album by American rock band The Killers. It was released on September 27, 2006, by Island Records. The album is a loose concept album about the band's hometown of Las Vegas, and explores themes of love, loss, and redemption. It was a critical and commercial success, debuting at number two on the Billboard 200 chart and selling over five million copies worldwide.
The album's sound is a departure from the band's post-punk-influenced debut album, Hot Fuss. Sam's Town features a more expansive and cinematic sound, with elements of synth-pop, arena rock, and even country music.
Some of the album's most popular singles include "When You Were Young," "Bones," "Read My Mind," and "For Reasons Unknown." These songs have all become staples of The Killers' live shows and are still widely played on radio stations today.
Sam's Town is a landmark album in The Killers' career. It is a more ambitious and sophisticated work than their debut album, and it established the band as one of the most popular and successful rock bands in the world.
