"Muse Are Rubbish"

Sorry, but I think they are. I own (alright, have copied, same thing) both albums, and aside from the intro to Plug In Baby and some nice piano parts, the albums are monotonus.

It is very difficult to tell two songs apart - it just blends into one big mass of noise, none of which is particulery good to listen to.

Anyway - thats my opinion. Feel free to shout at me.

Ok, Cheese boy, this is your opinion, and I respect that, but I am now going to have to crush it into a crumpled heap.
So you think Muse are crap?
Fair enough I thought, maybe just a one off, y'know, we all have very varied musical tastes.
But you think RATM are crap too?
I'm beginning to see a pattern emerging here.....

(Sorry, but I must say what I believe in)

Muse are good, I have Origin, but there no better than good, in my view. Bellamy's voice can get overbearing after listening to an album twice at a time, and so I tend to listen to Muse in short bursts. The opening riff to Plug In Baby is superb, and Muscle Museum and New Born are quality songs. I saw the music video for Deadstar on Kerrang, so maybe I'll give it a download. I must say that it doesn't sound that impressive to me after a half-hearted first listen. I might get Showbiz, and should get their new album. What does the DVD contain, as it sounds interesting...not that I was thinking of buying it...;D

Where's the instrumental Muse songs!? :D

Oh, and RATM rule!

"Ya braindead, you got a f@cking bullet in ya head!"

Meh, Rage are OK. Nothing special. But at least they don't have a whiney voiced singer who sounds like he's a eunuch.

Matt Bellamy. Git.

While I'm on the subject - was given two Rage Against The Machine albs a week ago, and they're both rubbish as well.

Sweeeeeet.
I'm going to try to get Deadstar off Kazaa. It's really good that Muse are releasing a new album. I was starting to be afraid that they might turn into a band like Supergrass, y'know, be absolutely amazing and then just......stop (?).
Went to see Muse live in Plymouth last year, though. Absoluty fookin'-brilliant.

Yep, Muse do suck.
Glad other people think so too.

Here's how to make a Muse song:

Take classical riff - preferably Belliose.
Play that riff on Piano for 8 bars.
Have all instruments distorted for 8 bars.
Instruments drop out except for bass and drum.
Have Matt "Jeff Buckley" Bellamy go up and down his octaves, preferably through a vocal-distorter.
Bridge to chorus, have all instruments go "Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba"
Have Bellamy go "AAAWWWWOOOORRRAAAAGGGGHHHHH"
Repeat Belliose riff.

End.
Brit Award please.
Thanks

The albums do blend into each other, but each song is extremly diffent.

My fav tracks are muscle museum and New born - plus the cover of feeling good was quite good I thought too. Especially when they did it live.

Yup, I want it now too but we'll have to wait till July 1st.

However, have you heard Deadstar? Their new single. It's officially out on June 24th I think but I got a radio version on Kazaa.

First few times, I was REALLY unimpressed (but I always am first time through any song) but now I love it. The chorus is just SOOO good!

NEW ALBUM?? MUSE?? JULY 1ST??

Aww, but I want it now......

I think the bands guitar playing is great, their singing less so. I don't like listening to the band, and have no intrest in them whatsoever.
