Muse - The Resistance

[GeezrRckr]

My 2 cents on Muse since their US breakthrough (not as familiar before that)

Absolution = best *album* (overall)
Black Holes & Revelations = perhaps their 2 best songs ("Starlight" & "Map of the Problematique")
The Resistance = nothing worthy of their top 5

Hopefully their next album steps it up.

My favorite Muse song is on Resistance (I Belong to You)

Starlight sucks

Ugh, really? I Belong to You is AWFUL. My favorites are songs like Map of the Problematique, Fury, Hyper Music (and Hyper Chondriac Music), Showbiz, and of course most people consider their masterpiece song-wise to be Citizen Erased.

LOL @ the dubstep drop. If that's actually part of the album, it's going to be so bad.

[cutterbutter]

Theyve had silly viral videos before... They're "epic" man, remember? I will reserve judgement...

[nathanfairchild]

why does dubstep have to infect everything? it's worse than hiv.

[Miroir Noir]

So damn lulzy.

[MuseRadio]

Great news and sooner than expected! Can't wait!

[RedHotSgtPeppers]

God damnit, Muse.

[Miroir Noir]

LOL @ the dubstep drop. If that's actually part of the album, it's going to be so bad.

Here's the thing: even if the dubstep drop isn't on the album, is there any doubt that the equally hilarious politics will be? Seriously: enviro-conspiracy politics from a band that flies around the world staging ridiculously over-the-top stage productions on the dime of one of the world's biggest media conglomerates?

[nathanfairchild]

wait, are you saying that the politics of a band shouldn't be taken seriously?

[HandBanana]

Muse continues to strive towards their very own artistic statement on par with Aerosmith's Revolution X.
Some day they will get there, and it will be glorious!

Normally I don't care about this kind of thing, but when you are making it the centerpiece of your album roll-out . . .

[xuclarockerx]

Wasn't the Resistance also released in September? lol.

I was almost expecting a KONY 2012 mention in their trailer.

Also, this. Can't tell if serious...

Believe everything on Twitter man. Look at the date dumbass!

[RedHotSgtPeppers]

Who gives a fuck what the date was? He mentions christian gansta rap and a bunch of other shit that probably sounds like he was kidding, but he also mentions dubstep. Which was in the trailer for their new album.

[microcuts]

They definitely said the new album was going to have a more electronic element to it, but I never for a minute suspected they'd draw their inspiration from fucking Skrillex.

Can't say I'm excited, at all.

‎(Muse show in 2013)

Big Scary Orwellian Face on a Screen: "I will use the second law of thermodynamics and the federal reserve to...BAN ROCK AND ROLL"

Audience: BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Lead singer of Muse: Not if I find Professor Huxley Quazarr's missing crystal guitar shard before you! Then we will SHUT YOU DOWN!

Audience: YAYYYYYYYYYY!

(riffing and lasers and bullshit)

[nathanfairchild]

maybe this is just a viral marketing scheme for the next twilight movie.

Yeah, they said they were into Justice and Does It Offend You, Yeah? which is not in the vein of what this sounds like at all. Oh, Muse, what happened?
