    so is plug-in baby. anyone who thinks muse aren't heavy have not listened to them.


    as for arguing about genres? motörhead? straight hard rock? well, hard rock is just another heavy metal genre. motörhead are heavy as fuck.

    All of these are good. I particularly am a fan of opeth and amon amarth

    That said for pure blistering heavy i still stand by cryptopsy's album none so vile.

    the roar at the beginning of crown of horns is just ridiculous.

    none so vile is probably out and out the heaviest album ever.

    Depends on your definition of 'heavy'.

    I think modern metal is misguided.. heaviness isn't about how distorted your guitar is and how god awful your 'vocals' are (tempo works though). It's about style, meaning, arrangments that punch you in the gut when the song shifts.. The kick in Soundgarden's "Like Suicide" is a perfect example of this.

    Anywhoooo..

    Yup, you've got my point. This is about the heaviest of the most heaviest. Muse is nowhere near heavy metal.

    To be honest, I dont know how Muse can be considered heavy at all. Mabye its just a comparison thing, but it's pretty middle of the road rock compared to what I listen to (Dimmu Borgir, Hell On Earth, Graveworm, Wintersun, Scar Symmetry, Opeth, Rotting Christ, Naglfar, DevilDriver etc.)

    that entire album is superb! shame they were never really able to match it again in terms of class. one of my favourite thrash albums at the time.


    and people posting here should stop arguing about what consitutes 'heavy metal', a term invented by journalists and the music industry to categorise a certain kind of music. heavy metal extends from relatively gentle rock music like queen, right through to the blackest of black metal. muse definately fall into this category. they may not be as heavy as dimmu borgir et al, but they are heavy metal, as are pearl jam. if someone thinks a muse track is heavy then respect their view. if you don't think muse are heavy, listen to stockholm syndrome, plug in baby or citezen erased.
