Brandon Flowers Says 'Sorry'

July 25, 2006

The Killers' frontman wants to take back all the nasty little things he's said about bands like the Bravery, Fall Out Boy, and Panic! at the Disco.

Killers frontman Brandon Flowers, who recently suggested emo music is "dangerous" (read more), has apologized to any bands he may have offended on his way to the top. After beefing with bands like the Bravery and Fall Out Boy, Flowers now says he'd "like to take it all back." Speaking to AOL Music, Flowers confessed: "These people are just doing what they want to do, just like I am. I'm actually a nice person and I love people. I just am opinionated, and sometimes jealous. It's not something I'm proud of."

Flowers seemed most anxious to take back what he said about fellow Las Vegans Panic! at the Disco, that they were just piggy-backing off Fall Out Boy's success. "I don't even know what their music's like, or if I would even like it," he said of Panic. "That made me feel even worse, to think they could have been fans of ours and I hurt their feelings. That's just stupid."

I never would have considered The Bravery emo really. And I don't even know who "Fall Out Boy" and "Panic! at the Disco" are.

My god, what pansies. And these are adult males?

They're emo adult males - so 12 year old girls.

the killers aren't emo. sorry.

some of you people really need to learn what emo is and isn't before you go off calling practically EVERYTHING emo.
 
I like all those bands except "the Bravery" (never heard of them). Anyone who avoids specific music because of its "category" is an idiot... hate something because it doesn't sound good, not because some nitwit labeled it "emo."

The Bravery is pretty good. If you like The Killers check out The Bravery. They sound similar.

I love The Killers' music....but whether or not they're emo, some of the things they've said does make me think they are, in fact, 12-year-old girls

Well pretty much anything *mumbles incoherently*
 
Blah, they're all good bands in their own right. I can't stand Fall Out Boy, but I digress. Good PR move by The Killers to have their singer shut his yap.
