The Killers cover Joy Division’s “Shadowplay”

First, The Killers were helping aid the comeback of the ironic mustache, and now, the Nevada-based quartet is hopping on the Joy Division train.

Yesterday (Oct. 4), The Killers released the first single off of their B-sides album Sawdust. The song, “Shadowplay,” is an original from the iconic Manchester band. The rest of Sawdust's offerings will be presented to the world on Nov. 13. Still, if you don’t want to wait for the new - or at least newly recorded - songs, the boys have some dates left on their tour and will be playing at The Echo Project in a couple weeks.
