The Killers will return Sept. 18 with "When You Were Young," the first single from their highly anticipated sophomore album, "Sam's Town." The set is due Oct. 2 in the United Kingdom and a day later in North America on Island/Def Jam.  It was recorded in the band's Las Vegas hometown with producers Flood and Alan Moulder.

You can preview the first single "When You Were Young" with the link below.

Although the track list has yet to be revealed, songs expected to make the final cut include "Read My Mind," "Bones," "Uncle Johnny Did Cocaine" and the title cut.

The new album is the follow-up to the Killers' 2004 debut, "Hot Fuss," which has sold more than 3 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

"We're trying to strip it down a little bit," lead singer Brandon Flowers previously said of the new material. "Not have it be so busy. Just let it breathe and let it be a great song. We wrote some great songs on the first one, but these have more of a classic feel."
