Crackin'!

This is a lot different to what they're done before. It's not the useal greyish raw emotion muse have (this isn't a bad thing i love muse!) Instead they've funked it up a bit. It's gives the song a sleazy feel to it. But you can still hear muse's useual style shineing through. It's a great song don't g... Read full review »

Not worth the plastic its printed on

This is awful. I normally love Muse's dulcet tones but this is abominable. It's like a thrash metal re-union. As for that review that said t... Read full review »

Muse are back!

After the amazing 'Absolution' album by Muse, I was looking forward to their new single 'Supermassive Black Hole'. Some people have slated this song by saying 'that it doesn't sound much like Muse' and that it sounds more like Scissor Sisters, but When I first heard it I wasn't disappointed.

Wow..... Just wow....

If your a Muse fan you cant say you werent a LITTLE nervous about this album launch.... The band that pretty much started (and carried) the entire Brit-pop movement returns for a fourth album. And the two questions that immediatly springs to mind is "Is it good?" and "Does it live up to the others".

Musically, this is a cut above the other three albums, and is the next step in Muse's evolution. At first the direction they seem to have taken may seem suprising, but as soon as Matt's voice starts on the opening track "Take A Bow", you WILL feel that this is the right place for Muse to be. There are times on this album where it feels heavily edited, and very much like a studio album only, as the almost synthetic notes rise and rise before running together with the lyrics being looped over, it could almost pass as a dance song, but then the guitar kicks in again and it feels like Muse again. It really is a breathtaking way to open the album.

I could go on for ages about each track, from the catchy piano riffs of "Starlight" to the epic single, "Super Massive Balck Hole" but special note must be made of a few tracks, namely "City Of Delusio" and better yet, "Knights Of... Read full review »
