First of all what the external aesthetics: Spinal Tap reincarnated the special award for the stupidest Album name deserves yes undoubtedly already Flowers Solo Flamingo "And now this stupid Cross Artwork Battle Born is the lousy taste or were as a wedding band ?!..

Time sound The Killers British then uramerikanisch and somehow that was in his carefree nature whatsoever personable and hardly predictable. But between the winking handle in the musical Klamottenkiste and self-parody, it is still only a very, very fine line.
