Frontman Brandon Flowers admits he is a big fan of the band, but feels it is time for the ageing musicians to be replaced as one of the world's most successful bands.
The singer is also convinced that The Killers will be able to topple the legendary group.
"(We can replace U2 on the top) pedestal," he said. "They're getting old. You know there's going to be a couple of songs on (their) new record you're just going to love. But there's gotta be... I dunno. It feels like it's time."

I have to respectfully disagree by FAR with you on that one. I saw them on SNL this past saturday, and I thought they were shyte. A lot of my "punk" sort of friends like them, and I never understood why. For me they're like the Arcade Fire, a lot of people seem to like them when to me in actuality the only reason they get attention is because they're a little bit different, but not a good different. I don't know, maybe they were just playing bad songs and they weren't performing well, but when I saw them on SNL I thought (wow how is this band famous, and, wow this singer needs a new hairstyle, it looks like a comb over)
Sorry mate, but I don't think they have any chance of fighting for the musical pedestal. As for the Killers, there's nothing wrong with ambition, but there's no need to be arrogant about it Mr. Flowers. Also, what's the difference if you're old? All of the classic rock bands are making come backs lately and it's the best music that's been played live in decades. I like the Killers, but sometimes I don't like Brandon Flowers.
