Eugene S. - 02/Nov/2023  The third studio album by English musician Roger Waters, released 7 September 1992. Amused to Death reached No. 8 on the UK Albums Chart, Waters' first Top 10 as a solo artist in his homeland, and a career high of No. 21 on the Billboard 200.
|  | Alexander S. - 14/Oct/2019  Initially, I had a somewhat negative attitude towards the solo work of Rog, because it was he who was responsible for the breakup of Pink Floyd. And when I heard his album of '87, this negativity only increased.
But do not forget that Rog is the author of most Floyd's ideas. And if he could create brilliant things for PF, then why not create a brilliant solo album? So, he is in front of us!
The concept of this album is quite complex, the text still takes up the music. The main idea can be understood only in one cover - dependence on TV. I wrote that the texts dominate the music, but this does not mean that there are at least some weaknesses in the musical plan. Not a single passing thing, despite the unhurried development of events, will not be bored for a single minute while listening.
It is difficult to single out the strongest things, all compositions at a very high level. Still, how many people are involved in creating the album. But probably the most favorite thing is “It's a Miracle”. Maybe due to a striking solo at the end ??
So, the album earned the highest rating. There is only one wish for Rog: to please the music lovers with new works as soon as possible!
