NEWS: The Killers Announce Christmas Single 'Boots'

Back in September, Brandon Flowers announced that he was missing The Killers and would like to get back with the other band members in 2011. It doesn't look like we have to wait that long as today The Killers have announced the release of a Christmas single.

According to a post on The Killers official website, the band will maintain their annual tradition by releasing a new song called 'Boots' in America on Tuesday 30 November.

The Killers tradition of Christmas singles began in 2006 when the band released 'A Great Big Sled', all the proceeds of which went to AIDS charities as part of Bono's RED campaign. Next came 'Don't Shoot Me Santa' in 2007, 'Joseph, Better You Than Me' in 2008 and '¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe!' in 2009.

News of this Christmas single comes during The Killers hiatus. The band are taking a break from general band commitments while front man Brandon Flowers peruses his solo career.

Here is The Killers 2007 Christmas single 'Don't Shoot Me Santa' to get you in the festive spirit.
