Together with Stoermer and Vannucci, they formed The Killers. They recorded two tracks, “Mr. Brightside” and “Desperate,” and hired Vannucci’s roommate’s girlfriend to design their logo. They recorded many of the songs that became their debut album, “Hot Fuzz,” in Vannucci’s garage. They caught the attention of a representative from Warner Bros. Records and were signed to Lizard King Records in London. Their debut album reached number one in the UK and was certified platinum three times over in the US. They have since released five more full-length albums and maintained a strong fanbase worldwide.
