  • 73: The Thrasher Tour Special!

    Do you want to listen to us talk about our Thrasher tour experience for over two hours? Boy, do I have the episode for you! If you want to skip to the part where we talk about... meeting Brandon... the timecode is 1:46:00. Next time, we will be back to business as usual with our episode discussing Who Let You Go!

  • 72: When The Dreams Run Dry

    Welcome back to another nearly incomprehensible episode. In our defense, we were one week away from seeing the Thrasher tour at the time of recording. Today's topic: When The Dreams Run Dry! Tune in for lots of talk about migratory birds, dying, aging, and space. We also discovered our new motto: we're laughing because we're happy.

    (Thrasher tour recap episode coming soon.)

  • 71: A Cripping Blow

    It's finally time to cover a song that we've (probably) been wanting to discuss since episode one: A Crippling Blow. A near-unanimously loved bonus track with hard-to-decipher lyrics, we are simply obsessed with this one. Topics include baroque pop, whatever Brandon is saying in verse two, and a broken promise.

  • 70: Be Still

    This week, we're talking about Be Still! We're also spending about 15 minutes talking about Thrasher, the upcoming tour, and revisiting the My Chemical Romance Podcast. But after that, we ask maybe one of the most important questions of the decade: is Be Still a mirror song?*

    *We don't explain what this means in the episode because we're assuming you're not new around here. A mirror song, in KSP terms, is a song where the "you" in question is Brandon himself, as if he is speaking to himself in a mirror.

  • 69: Enterlude / Exitlude

    We hope you enjoy your stay! It's good to have you here with us at the Killersluts Podcast to talk about the capstones for Sam's Town, which means that we get to talk about Sam's Town, and we love Sam's Town! Strap in for our discussion about the origins of these songs, Royal Albert Hall performances, and allusions to Hotel California.

  • 68: Quiet Town

    We're back to talking about Pressure Machine! This time: Quiet Town. Tune in to hear more train talk, a lot of derailment from us (sorry), seeing Quiet Town live in 2022, and small-town living.

  • 67: Have All The Songs Been Written?

    This week, we intercepted an email sent from Brandon to Bono, which posed the question, "Have all the songs been written?" This episode features some strong opinions. Topics of discussion include: an alternate fan perspective, Mark Knopfler's guitar, and the cohesion of Wonderful Wonderful.

  • 66: Joy Ride

    This week we are talking about Joy Ride! This universally loved song off of Day & Age is not universally loved, it turns out. Maybe that was only the case for critics in 2008. Tune in to hear about Joy Ride (Night Version), Brandon's defence of saxophone, and Katie's misunderstanding of the term "rag top."

    (Yes, this episode was recorded before all of those announcements about Thrasher. Please stand by.)

  • 65: All These Things That I've Done

    This week, we're talking about all these things that we've done. Grammy-nominated and setlist staple, All These Things That I've Done is genuinely one of the best songs ever written. Tune in to hear some scandalous background on the song, and to listen to us try not to talk over each other for an hour and a half. We were just really excited about it.

    1 hr 26 min
  • 64: I Can't Stay

    This week on the podcast, we are talking about the best song that has ever been written, I Can't Stay. Topics of discussion include another sun/son debate, the concept of putting the words "exoneration" and "eraser" into your song, and the recontextualization of the song on the Wonderful Wonderful tour.
