Brandon Flowers, frontman of The Killers, told The Times this week that he’s been questioning whether to quit music altogether — comments that arrive just weeks before his solo album Thrasher drops Aug. 21.

This isn’t the first time Flowers has spoken publicly about a reckoning. In 2023, he told The Times he was in a “crisis” over The Killers’ direction, ultimately scrapping an album that didn’t feel “authentic.”
