Quick: name that band. Who is it, the latest art damaged country punks to stagger out of Joshua Tree? Some long lost side project of J.D. Souther, Jackson Browne and Neil Young? The Devendra Banhart fan club? Any way you look at 'em, their beards are impressive: it takes a long time, and a total disregard for what girls actually want to lick, to grow a neck beard like that.
Give up? It's The Killers, former Las Vegas new wavers known for their eyeliner, their badass suits and that song, "Somebody Told Me," which sorta went like, "you had a boyfriend, who looked like your girlfriend," or some such titillatingly gay-ish lyric that basically confirmed what the eyeliner and pink ties implied.

Good thing they have a stylist who told them all that new wave faggy stuff is like, soooo 2004! Now who's got the acid?
