On Wednesday, Jan. 28, The Killers, a rock band made famous by their 2004 album, Hot Fuss, will be playing at the Patriot Center alongside electronic rock group M83. The concert is slated to begin at 8 p.m. with M83, a band formed in 2001 in France, opening the show.

Currently, M83 consists of original band member Anthony Gonzalez, whose signature style includes softly spoken lyrics delivered over loud instrumentals.

Las Vegas rockers, The Killers will follow M83, playing from a catalogue of hits which includes “Mr. Brightside,” “Somebody Told Me” and “When You Were Young.”

The band, which consists of vocalist and keyboardist Brandon Flowers, guitarist Dave Keuning, bassist Mark Stoermer and percussionist Ronnie Vannucci Jr., have released four albums to date, including 2004’s Hot Fuss and 2006’s Sam’s Town, both of which have sold over 12 million copies worldwide.
