About This Track

‘Killers*’ by Skrillex is a track from ‘CONTRA’, released in 2026. The lyrics, delivered with a brash, club-facing swagger, lean into an image of pressure and power, with lines that repeatedly frame bringing smoke to the dance and suggest an antagonistic crowd response, including the quoted idea “Them bitches don’t want”. There are also stagey, drop-driven notes in the excerpt, including the repeated cues for a shift into a heavier section.

"Killers*" is a track by Skrillex, from the album CONTRA, released 2026. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 12 articles about Skrillex.

Hands up, hands up
