I think I love every Muse album up to this point. It's important that bands evolve, but just can't get into this at all after multiple listenings. Will of the People is even worse for me.
thomas.ambrus Jun 21, 2021
Great record, but why print the booklet? It's not readable in the CD version. Don't argument "... get the vinyl version". They made a CD version and the texts are not recognizable. A waste of resources.

I was expecting the worst and this album is finally the best since "black holes and revelations"
