Valentine's Reviews -- Imploding the Mirage

Valentine's Reviews -- Imploding the Mirage

What better way to avoid romance than listening to rock and roll? The Killers released a new album, Imploding the Mirage. The new album is vastly different from the music The Killers are known for – the Killers music I grew up with. Rather than being a mainly pop-rock album, the band took the new album in a new direction. 

Brandon Flowers and the rest of the Killers group have a large 80s synth-sound in this new release. Many of the tracks reminded me of the iconic sounds of Tears for Fears, Wang Chung, and Yes. While I enjoy the experimentation and nostalgic sound, I do miss The Killers for what they were good at. This is a fun album, but not one I would recommend introducing someone to the group for the first time.

From the editor: This is a very good question and we apologize for not catching that wasn't in there. We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITORComment author: Debra J RidenourComment text: So sorry for your loss.
