The Killers star Brandon Flowers has gone solo.
The Human hitmaker will release his first solo album, Flamingo, later this year (10).
The news marked the launch of the rocker's own website BrandonFlowersMusic.com.
The Killers announced they were taking a break from touring at the beginning of 2010, after cancelling a series of dates in Australia and Asia due to the death of Flowers' mother.
Metallica's Master Of Puppets Named Top Heavy Metal Album
Metallica's Master Of Puppets has topped a new list of heavy metal albums.
The group's 1986 release beat Iron Maiden's Number of the Beast and Appetite For Destruction by Guns N' Roses on the joint MusicRadar.com and Metal Hammer magazine poll.
Ironically, the results have been released on International Noise Awareness Day.
More than 6,000 heavy rock fans took part in the vote, with 20 per cent of them picking Master of Puppets as the top album.
Also making the top 10 were Metallica's Ride The Lightning, AC/DC's Back in Black, Rust in Peace by Megadeth and Black Sabbath's Paranoid.
Metallica and Iron Maiden made the top 10 twice and seven of the top 10 albums were released in the 1980s.
