The Killers' Brandon Flowers promises 'different' second album

The Killers star Brandon Flowers believes his next solo record will be "different" than his first.

The US star first forayed into solo territory in 2010 with 'Flamingo'.

Flowers has been busy working on its follow-up and he told NME that working with producer Ariel Rechtshaid is opening up new doors.

He said: "Even though I'm still young, you can start to get set in your ways. Change is good and there's always growth, I'm always looking for that.

"It's nice to steer the ship and that's what you'd think I’d do on my own album, but I'm letting Ariel take over every now and then. That's led to some really exciting things and sounds I would never have used.

"As I've gotten older I'm much more open to that – I'm much more open to peoples' strengths and really trying to utilise them – and that's where Ariel comes into the picture. He's really knowledgeable about every genre; it's pretty incredible what he's able to reference and pull out. It's definitely going to be different, but I'm still in the thick of it, hammering away."
