High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Victims of the Future is an album by Northern Irish blues-rock guitarist, Gary Moore, released in 1984. Continuing his path in the hard rock genre, Victims of the Future was a collection of straight-out rock `n` roll anthems (such as "Teenage Idol" and "Hold on to Love"), a mournful love ballad ("Empty Rooms", which then was redone by Moore for his 1985 Run for Cover album), a cover of the Yardbirds` "Shapes of Things", and two darker songs, with some social and political commentary: "Victims of the Future" and "Murder in the Skies", the latter being a protest against the Soviet Union`s shooting down of Korean Air Flight 007.
