Background[edit]


The album was recorded at various points throughout 2003 with Jeff Saltzman in Berkeley, California, with the exception of "Everything Will Be Alright", which was recorded by Corlene Byrd in guitarist Dave Keuning's apartment. Many of the tracks were originally recorded as demos, which the band decided to keep for their spontaneity. The album was mixed by Mark Needham at Cornerstone Studios in Los Angeles and Alan Moulder at Eden Studios in London.


Hot Fuss is mainly influenced by new wave and post-punk artists such as Joy Division, New Order, The Cure, The Smiths, Morrissey, Duran Duran, and The Cars. Other influences include David Bowie, U2, Oasis, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Lou Reed.[citation needed]


The album includes the second and third parts of the so-called Murder Trilogy, "Midnight Show" and "Jenny Was a Friend of Mine". The first part, "Leave the Bourbon on the Shelf", appears on The Killers' B-sides and rarities compilation, Sawdust.
