The Killers will release their B-sides collection, titled “Sawdust,” on Nov. 13.

The release via Island Def Jam will feature Lou Reed, formerly of the Velvet Underground, guesting on the track “Tranquilize.”

The tentative song list also includes “All the Pretty Faces” (the B-side to “When You Were Young”), a cover of Mel Tillis’ “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town” and two songs the Killers recently contributed to movie soundtracks: “Move Away” from “Spider-Man 3,” and “Shadowplay,” a Joy Division cover from the Ian Curtis biopic “Control.”

The band says that previously unheard songs written during sessions for 2006’s “Sam’s Town” will likely appear on “Sawdust” as well.

In other Killers news, the band will release their second annual holiday single, “Don’t Shoot Me Santa,” on Dec. 1. Profits from the single will benefit the RED campaign, which fights AIDS in Africa. The Killer’s holiday single last year, “A Great Big Sled,” also raised money for RED.
