harsh lol. no one is as bad as him 🤣🤣 I agree that Muse can be an acquired taste and on previous albums I've probably only liked about 50% tbh. This one really appeals to me though. 2 great synthwave styled songs, 2 great ballads and 2 or 3 cool rockers as well.

this is fast becoming one of my favs of 2022. I love all 10 songs.

liked all songs so far

f stupid video. is there any reason he's dressed up as Teenwolf 🙄

yeah that's pretty nice

no not really. Quite often in the past on this forum I have read yr posts and thought a bit differently. But you my friend have never ever once changed your viewpoint on any matter (including music) in the whole 16 yrs I've been on this forum. No matter. I'll leave you to crack on with CTS

I didnt think II was that great either. Pretty generic actually

like you don't lol 😂

I have made my valid point over and over but you still never falter from your blinding vision that yr opinion is correct and the only way that everyone should think. a bit sad really

so you now think the death toll is a lie. right on. Fact of the matter is at one point you were actually shocked by the death toll, now you just dismiss it - this has been my point all along, which you continually miss. Aus restrictions have gone on too long but you now dismiss everything as one big mistake. and belittle a virus which was devastating to many people and families. That is what irks me

but it caused a 'pretty big death toll by anyone's standard' (quote Geoff April 2020) 😉👍

ha ha gotta love Geoff squirming, even tho he'll claim he isn't. And he'll bite at this post too cos he can't resist

he did say it tho lol. and what's more in the same post he said he was actually enjoying lockdown 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

excellent album. firmly in my top 10

Purple Rain 🤔 A few songs on that I really like but greatest album of all time. Mmmm And im sure even the Clash themselves would freely admit their album isn't the 4th greatest of all time lol

HEAT won't be in my top 10

v sad. I saw him live twice, fantastic guitarist. RIP 😥

guessed it might be 2023. hadn't been many updates

mate you can't compare Sweden to UK. It has less than the population of London lol. With London you had 15 million people packed together spreading the bloody thing like wildfire. Just saying. And the graphs are fairly plain to see for UK - 2 massive death peaks and immediate drop off following lockdown - I would share them but no idea how to lol. Completely agree on restrictions and soon after vaccines the UK moved quickly to ease all restrictions. Aus is just dumb in this regard.

by the time delta hit we had almost started to open back up cos our vaccine rollout was actually fast & effective Typical comment jesting over how deadly it was. Yes millions did recover of course, mainly in the under 40 bracket, but that does not mean you can trivialise the impact of the virus or that lockdowns were essential to protect the more vulnerable parts of society. You can't just look past 2000 deaths a day and say that was nothing. Cos it wasn't, it was pretty bad. The mortality rate in the over 70s was 14% at the beginning - that is a pretty alarming stat. The graphs timelines for the deaths clearly shows how effective the lockdowns were in preventing the spread and reducing the death rate. All I'm trying to do here is to explain why the action taken was essential and in a way the actions in Aus actually prevented you guys getting hit in the worst part of the pandemic. I completely agree that your govs continued actions are stupid and that all restrictions should now be removed. Not sure what else to say really, but this is all just common sense to me.

Delta was nothing. That didn't hit uk til about 1 year (around April 2021) after the pandemic started and around the same time I got vaccinated so didn't really have much impact at all. It was more transmissible but much less virulent. I'm talking before that - April- June 2020 - original strain & alpha, and winter 2020 - Beta.

Golden Gate is a terrible opener and I fail to see what is great about Energy Never Dies 🤔 2 worst songs on the album mate! Most of the rest is pretty good, just wish it wasn't so ballad heavy.

agree 💯

you can refer to the post above as well.

from Omicrom yes. Which is now basically just flu. Thankfully for you Australia was protected from the more deadly variants before there were any vaccines. It never properly hit your shores until vaccines had been developed and the strains had waned to nothing. This is the point you continually miss. Had you been in the UK which was an absolute disaster with 1000s dying a day and 1000s of people of all ages on ventilators in hospital your overarching view of this virus might be different. (100% agree that kids under 15 were never really badly affected and should never have been vaccinated)
