The band had initially been set out to hit the road in support of ‘Imploding The Mirage’ in summer 2020, before those dates were delayed to last year and set to kick off in May 2021. However, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and with mass outdoor gatherings currently not set to return in the UK until June 21, the gigs were then rescheduled until summer of 2022.
‘Pressure Machine’ came out in late 2021, and the band shared new songs on a deluxe edition of the album last month.
Last year, The Killers revealed to NME that they’re already at work on a “heavier” new record – and that this one is likely to feature all four members.
