Top 50 on AAA:
58 49 KILLERS Land Of The Free 92 72 20 0.137
This isn't terrible or anything but it's still pretty underwhelming from them. Not surprised it's not given a big push.

Oh man, really not sure how I feel about this one. I haven’t been able to get into most Killers singles they’ve released since When You Were Young largely because of them feeling overly pompous and bloated, and this may be one of the worst cases yet. It almost feels like self parody at this point...at the same time I kind of don’t hate this, at least on first listen? It’s not something I’d want to hear constantly, but I do like the message (even though it’s not exactly anything new for alt radio) and it’s sung with such conviction that I almost want to buy into it. At the same time I’m really not surprised this bombed and I hope their next proper lead is more The Man and less this.

Since this is bombing, I hope they abort this direction.

Has this been an official radio single with a push, or is it more just a song that is out there for radio to take or leave?

I don't think it got sent to Alt, although fwiw, KROQ did add the song shortly after its release.

They're performing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this Monday (April 1, 2019). Going to assume this will be a new song, because they don't have a current single (unless you count "Land of the Free" which is done with anyways).

I hope this is way better than that borefest they released a few months ago.
