The Killers are to release an album of cover versions.

The 'Human' rockers are planning to record alternative interpretations of some of their favourite tracks, but admit they are unsure when the proposed LP will be released - and don't mind if it never is.

Drummer Ronnie Vanucci told Billboard.com: "It's happening. We have a couple in the can but I don't know when we'll get it off the ground to release it.

I think it's still a while off but things move kind of fast with us and get cooking, so it could just be when we have a collection of songs for the press, we'll put it out there

"But it's going to happen. I think it's a good thing for us to do. Let's say the s**t hits the fan and it never gets released, it's at the very least nice to kind of study other people's music in the way songs are written or constructed.

"It's going to be one of those things that will be more fun for us than anybody else. I think it's still a while off but things move kind of fast with us and get cooking, so it could just be when we have a collection of songs for the press, we'll put it out there."
