In The Killers most recent interview with NME, click here to read that interview, they appear to indicate that the break following ‘Battle Born’ may be similar in length to the one they took following 'Day & Age’ in 2009.

While The Killers had previously indicated that 2014 would be largely dedicated to a break and work on solo projects, Brandon Flowers has confirmed that 2014 and at least part of 2015 will be dedicated to a break and work on solo albums.

Based on the NME interview above, Dave Keuning and Mark Stoermer also appear to desire a break similar in length to the one The Killers took after promoting 'Day & Age’.

The above time table implies that The Killers may take around 15 months off (2014 is equal to 12 months and assumes that 'early 2015’ is 3 months), and likely longer, before starting work on their fifth studio album.

Victims will recall that The Killers took roughly 18 months off after promoting 'Day & Age’ before starting work on 'Battle Born’. Victims will also recall that The Killers worked on 'Battle Born’ for around a year before releasing their fourth studio album in September 2012.

As of right now, it appears that it may be mid to late 2016 before The Killers put out their fifth studio album.
