Curiosity about Muse

[Chatato]

I really like them and I will defend them to any length in fact my friend and I have an ongoing debate about who is better Muse or Usher (Side note: I hate Usher) so-far result prove muse is better in fact we even took a poll asking random people from our school who's better Muse or Usher it was like 12-3 Muse's way but he still thinks Usher is a better musician *Sighs* some people.

Great live are Muse. I wouldn't say I was a huge fan. I enjoyed their stuff up until around their third album.

Muse come from Paignton, which is not too far from where I live in Plymouth. There is a pub called the Phoenix (awful hole of a place) but if you go into the gents toilets you can see Muse signatures on the wall before they were famous. Quite cool.

 

[franconbean]

That is all.

I am quite a big fan of muse, to the point that i have gone to the effort of seeking out their entire discography, including B-sides and all that. There are no Muse songs that I actively dislike (Though their earlier stuff, before they really took off in a big way is more my bag).

Yeah, i really like em. I even have a muse Avatar

Oh, and when they get made to Lip Sync or told what to do, they do some funny stuff.


take themselves seriously, eh?

I only know one song by Muse, and thats "Knights of Cydonia". Once saw the video clip on TV, got hooked, listen to it every now and then.

How many Escapists like Muse? I've been a fan of them since Origin of Symmetry, and I'm just curious how many others on the Escapist like them.

I think that they are a very cool band but alot of their songs just don't resonate with me like say Knights of Cydonia or a few others.

 

[diggy140892]

I like them but their last album was terrible.

 

[TastyCarcass]

I used to love them, but their last album was horrible and Bellamy sounds bad now.

 

[OddOzZy666]

I really am not a fan if I'm honest, I don't find Matt Bellamy to be that much of a talented guitarist when he has to call on Windows '98 to help him.

There's only one real thing I like about Muse, and that's the bass line for Hysteria, other than that, I don't find them that enjoyable to listen to, and would much rather listen to Foo Fighters, cos they are awesome.

 

[DVS Storm]

I think that muse is an awesome band. Definitely one of my favorite bands. Black Holes & Revelations is my favorite album. They are really talented, Bellamy has a good voice, the songs are technically really cool etc.

 

[Uber Evil]

I don't like them. I liked exactly 1 song by them but even that started to get on my nerves since the singer sounds like a... Well I wont say but yeah, s/hes annoying.

Edit: Actually, I half take it back. Relistening to the song I find my annoyance of it has faded but yeah, if I listened to it a few more times I would rehate it.

If someone could suggest say their top 3 Muse songs so I can get more of a feel for their better works then I would appreciate it.

Stockholm Syndrome
Hysteria
Thoughts of a Dying Atheist

I like those ones (I actually like quite a few of their songs), my sister basically only has Muse on her Ipod.

 

[Alluos]

I love a few of their songs, like a lot of them, and can't stop listening to the ones I love to be able to hear the rest of the albums

 

[The Diabolical Biz]

Meh...not my thing.

Like away, I'm just not a fan. But then few people here would appreciate my tastes anyway.

 

[Ashcrexl]

I love Muse! they're definitely in my top 5 bands somewhere. citizen erased is probably my favorite of theirs followed by New Born and muscle museum (this title is so clever it still makes me smile!)

 

[Veret]

Everyone who thinks the new album is generic, boring, or terrible has clearly never heard this song:


You're welcome.

 

[LostTimeLady]

I first came in contact with Muse when a friend used to play tracks from the 'Supermassive black hole' album when he set up tech for drama productions. My dad had actually purchesed said album but didn't like it so lo, that became mine and it is one of my favourite albums. However, there latest stuff is terrific as well.
I can't comment on what they did before, but MK Ultra is one of my all time favourite pieces of music.

(Off topic: One day I shall 100% Knights of Cydonia on Guitar Hero III... one day...)

Edit: Yeah, this:

I only know Knights of Cydonia because it was on Guitar Hero 3.

damn that's some good playing!

 

[Bags159]

Get rid of the vocalist and they might be listenable.

 

[LuckyClover95]

I like them, saw them live at Wembley Oh yeeeaaah

 

[Soxafloppin]

They're awesome One of my favourite bands. My favourite song is probably Take a Bow, One of the best Album openers, to one of the best albums, of ALL TAIM.

 

[Laser Priest]

I like Muse well enough. I'm not a frequent listener, but I like what I've heard of them.

 

[R4ptur3]

I don't really like them, a lot of their songs sound very similar to me, but not in a good way. Watched them live on TV though and i thought they played well live.
