    I have listened to the first 4 songs and the first part of exogenisis.

    It is hard for me to for man opinion yet as i have obviously not even heard the entire album, but from what i've heard i've been disapointed.

    listen to the full album. it needs to be heard from start to finish.

    its bombastic and overblown craziness.... i fucking love it.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    i am a bit disturbed by the unshameless channelling of Queen in United states of Eurasia... :roll:

    Totally over-blown, pompous, power pop. I love it. It's fucking great.

    This album is not for me.

    I like Uprising, United States of Eurasia, Unnatural Selection, & Exogenisis part 2

    I don't think any of them are great and i think some of the others are pretty bad.

    I was not a fan of Black Holes and this for me just continues down a path i don't enjoy. That said if you have different taste in music i'm sure there could be a lot of good things found on this album.

    I won't spend any more time bashing it to each their own. I listened to it twice now and I'll keep giving it a shot (until the new pj album arrives at my door) but i don't hear much on this album i will want to hear over and over again..

    My fav i think is unnatrual selection.

    I didnt really like muse's new album. it just didnt sound like them, but eh maybe its just me. But, i would have to say i do like the united states of eurasia. It has a queen feel to it

    Wanted to give it some time before I posted.

    Love the uprising, resistance, USOE, MK Ultra, & Unnatural selection (maybe my fav).

    Kinda digging Undisclsoed desires, exogenesis (part 2 is the best), and I belong to you.

    Might only listen to Guiding light 1 more time and then put it on permanent skip. ;)

    All and all, solid album. I can't wait to see them live again and mix in a few of these beauties with my old favs. You have to see them live to truly appreciate them. Like PJ, they are better on stage than in studio...though both bands are good at both.

    Muse have always been one of those bands that I feel I ought to like but just can't get into them, like Weezer.
    All my favourite singers have stolen all of my best lines.

    MK Ultra is probably my pick at the moment

    I've softened my stance on this albu. Although it won't be in my top 10 of the yera or anything like that i like what they are trying to do and give them credit for that.

    I still think it only has 3 or 4 songs i'll come back to listen too often, those songs are good.

    For anyone who says they dont like this album...watch the making of dvd that comes with it. WOW. All the work and the creatvity this album took might change your mind drastically. It COMPLETELY changed my mind about Guiding Light.

    My God this band are horrible, I knew they made a second record but I didn't realise they were still going. I just heard the new single and it sounds like the Electic 6 or something a transvestite would sing at GAY.
    we're all going to the same place...
