Average album average band

Muse are a dumbed down, less talented and less successful version of Radiohead created by their record label, stylists, and PR men to satisfy the markets need for a user friendly, commercial pop-rock band. This was a market gap they filled rather well in their first two albums. A pop rock band, with tunes easy to sing along too, guitar riffs simple enough for fans to learn and loud enough for the head bangers. As muse didn't and where never intended to break any new ground or be innovative, fans could be sure their mates would also like them.

The pretentions of prog rock and musical innovation came later and where largely the product of muses fans desire to feel different and more rebelious. To feel like they where part of something that was c... Read full review »
