The discography of The Killers, an American rock band from Las Vegas, Nevada, consists of three studio albums, one compilation album and eighteen singles. Part of the post-punk revival movement, The Killers draw influence from music styles of the 1980s and 1990s. The group's debut album, Hot Fuss (2004) brought the band mainstream success. The Killers' second album, Sam's Town, was released in 2006, and the compilation album Sawdust containing B-sides, rarities, and new material, was released in 2007. The band's first three albums have sold in excess of 15 million copies worldwide, Day & Age, produced by Stuart Price, was released in November 2008.
