    Such a great band!! I love their work!!Fenomenal musicians. :D
    Never ever has a band come so close to Pearl Jam when I think of how much I'm impressed. I saw them in Vienna and was blown away. Hands down. Can't wait for the next CD ;)
    The worst enemies of music? Money and Mathematics. Combined with music, they both do the exact opposite of what they're supposed to do. Money makes music cheap, mathematics makes it stupid and predictable.

    I saw Muse twice over the summer/autumn. They are incredible live, I'm not in the least surprised they've sold out the stadium, they could sell out any venue in the world.

    Their popularity in the states in lagre, but they played at one of the smaller venues in San Diego when they came....I'm just blown away that they could sell out a stadium as large as that!

    What other performers have done that?

    I saw MCR supporting THEM in Edinburgh. lol

    And MCR were booed off the stage. Guess we must have a better taste in music this side of the Atlantic. :D

    I wouldn't say anybody over 14-15 years old really "Likes" MCR......


    Beside the point!

    MUSE sold out Wembley Stadium! It blows me away because they always play smaller venues in the states. In addition, I would think that the Stones would sell out a venue like that, but MUSE! now way!

    Im 31 - I like them. Bought their first album before it was released in the UK and have liked them since. They write brilliant commercial rock songs. Their interviews are ridiculous self centred "woh is me" nonsense, I decided not to go and see them in Manchester because Id probably be one of 5 people over the age of 16 - so I can see why people take a dislike to MCR, but IMHO no-one can deny that they are write good songs, and I'd much rather have their stuff doing well than most of the usual shit.

    I saw a video of that, thought it was a bit low to be honest. If like me you hate them, then try and avoid them, but there's no need for that shit.

    Totally fab :cool:

    They're putting on a second show the following night too because the Saturday sold out so quick. Muse are hugely successful over here now, alot to do with their live performances - absolutely brilliant live. The best of modern British music, imo.

    I've followed them for a few years now and it's great to see the way they've developed and grown, now getting the mass success they deserve :)

    They're all great!!.. they've not done a song yet I don't want to hear. But I suppose the two albums I play most are

    Origin of Symmetry
    and
    Black Holes and Revelations

    Alot of variation in those two :)


    You can listen to any of their albums on their website
    http://www.muse.mu/index.php (then click on MEDIA bottom left)

    Listen to HYSTERIA from the album Absolution too ;)

    Matt's voice, not to everyone's taste .. personally I love it and the way he uses it as an extra instrument at times (Knights of Cydonia .. say no more)

    Play it all LOUD LOUD LOUD!!!
    Enjoy :cool:

    They are a great band, and an even better live band. I was supposed to srr them three times last year, but I couldn't make to any, due to unfortunate circumstances.

    Seen them twice before and they blew me away both times.

    I love Muse records, but I can't stand them live. Their show just seems way too over the top for me. Will wembley be finished by the time they get there?
    I only lied because it was the easiest way to get what I wanted.

    Muse is awesome. And live they are about th eonly band I've seen recently that can rival Pearl Jam.

    Love the live act. Catch it whenever you can.

    Slayer are a big boy's band I guess.......Being commercial doesn't make a band shit. PJ wrote music that was just as commercial for the time....

    Thats funny. I would say Absolution is their best, with Showbiz second. But they are all good.

    They are a fucking awesome band. Both studio and live.
