4th album release by The Killers is the live recordings from two concerts Jul. 2009 at The Royal Albert Hall in London consisting of 17 tracks and a total running time at 78 minutes - the maximum running length on cds.
The album really just documents what a fine live band The Killers is. To prove the band started off playing post-punk they play a Joy Division cover of "Shadowplay", which is also found on their rarities album Sawdust (2007).
The album is also released on DVD, which is an even better release with nearly twice as many songs and only just documenting how well the band works live.
