The Killers are set to release a career-spanning retrospective, titled Rebel Diamonds, on Friday, 8th December. Rebel Diamonds will contain twenty tracks plucked from across the band’s two decade career. The collection will end with a brand new song, titled ‘Spirit’.
Mega-hits likes ‘Mr. Brightside’ and ‘When You Were Young’ will make appearances, along with at least one song from each of the group’s seven albums. The compilation’s title is taken from a lyric in the Sam’s Town track ‘Read My Mind’.

The album proceeds in chronological order, thereby displaying the evolution of the band. Rebel Diamonds is the group’s second greatest hits compilation, following on from 2013’s Direct Hits.
“See it’s been said that what’s remembered lives, and we’ve racked up stadiums full of memories the past twenty years, enough to fill lifetimes,” The Killers’ Brandon Flowers said in a statement. “Twenty songs for twenty years.”
Rebel Diamonds is coming out on Friday, 8th December, through Universal Music. The album can be pre-saved here.
