‘Music Week’ reports that Virgin EMI managing director Clive Cawley has confirmed that preorders for The Killers’ fifth studio album, ‘Wonderful Wonderful’ will start sometime “in the next month”, presumably August. The start of the preorders will also be marked by the release of the second single from ‘Wonderful Wonderful’.

Cawley confirmed that the album will be available to pre-order in the next month with a new single released at the same time.



Cawley also appears to indicate that The Killers will be in the United Kingdom shortly after the release of ‘Wonderful Wonderful’ to promote the album.

“We are then working towards a September release date and the band are back in market then and they are going to do a load of promo for us,” continued Cawley.

It should be noted that the information above technically strictly applies to label’s plans for The Killers in the United Kingdom. However, given that ‘The Man’ was released in most markets at the same time, I would wager that the information above will apply to most markets as well.

This information has been added to the ‘Wonderful Wonderful’ page.
