Travis share single ‘Gaslight’ and talk new album ‘L.A. Times’: “America is so wrapped in their own history”

Travis have shared their jaunty new single ‘Gaslight’ and spoken to NME about their new album ‘L.A. Times’, supporting The Killers on their upcoming tour and 25 years of ‘The Man Who’.The Glasgow quartet’s first record in four years is set for release on July 12 via BMG and focuses on the City Of Angels, where frontman Fran Healy has lived for the last decade.During that time, the charismatic band leader has found himself the victim of a car-jacking and in a separate incident was “mauled” by a sausage dog that he tried to rescue from the scene of a car crash.“Do you wanna see my scar [where I was bitten]?” he laughed holding out his hand as NME sat down with him to survey the damage at BMG’s London headquarters.

The Killers are teasing a big announcement
The Killers have teased a big announcement with an ambiguous new video.Taking to social media this evening (August 21), the Las Vegas band posted a five-second black and white video of a dancer dressed in carnival-style attire in the desert.It’s accompanied by a dramatic piece of percussive music, but no caption or further detailed were shared alongside it.Check it out below.pic.twitter.com/8L6Cs62ROr— The Killers (@thekillers) August 21, 2023Fans have quickly started speculating about what the cryptic video could mean, with ideas ranging from a Super Bowl halftime show announcement – with the band having recently been named as the bookies’ favourite – to a new single.If it is teasing the imminent arrival of a song, that would mark the first new material from The Killers since their one-off 2022 single ‘Boy’.Speaking to NME about the new track at Mad Cool festival in Madrid last year, frontman Brandon Flowers said it was “the song that took me back home” and was “sort of the impetus for writing [2021 album] ‘Pressure Machine’.”He went on: “What’s interesting is that it just didn’t make it onto the record – but its absence is not a reflection of the quality of the song. It was an aesthetic decision to keep it off the record.”Drummer Ronnie Vannucci added that it was “a different complexion”, while Flowers said there was “an optimism to it”.
