A Silent Film Proud Of Comparison To The Killers

03/04/2013
. (Radio.com) The guys of A Silent Film are used to the comparison game. From Coldplay to Snow Patrol they've heard it all. But while the comparisons can get old, they never seem to get tired of hearing they sound a little like The Killers.

"They are an amazing band," singer Robert Stevenson told Radio.com. "I'm very proud to be in the same category."

Like The Killers, the English band, who are currently touring the States behind their 2012 album, Sand & Snow, write anthemic choruses that fans can't help but sing along to. But even with the similarities, Stevenson was quick to point out that his band is very different than the Vegas band.

"They're very American in their approach, and we love that," he said. "But I don't think there's any danger that we're ripping them off in any way."

Guitarist Karl Bareham thinks the comparisons are just a starting point, a way to get people interested in a band before they actually get a chance to hear the music. more.
