"I Feel It In My Bones," The Killers (Island Def Jam)

If you thought the release of an actual Christmas EP last year would be the demarcation point at which The Killers would take a well-earned break from the holiday wars, well, you were wrong. The band has issued single no. 7 for 2012, once again in support of (RED), which battles AIDS. And once again, the band, with help of former road manager and fellow musician Ryan Pardey, works out their troublesome relationship with Santa Claus, as previously rendered in the 2007 single "Don't Shoot Me Santa." The video depicts the jolly elf as he appears to take on the role of the motorcycling bounty hunter from "Raising Arizona," and well, you can imagine the rest as you listen to the driving, almost 70s-sounding rock backing. Another fine rock Christmas tune, and it looks like The Killers are on the march to a full holiday LP someday. Click the cover to get it from iTunes.
