Muse - The Resistance

[MostlyMellow]

as a former huge fan im done with this band.

[microcuts]

New single out today... and fuck the lot of you for breaking the thread. Not sure how or why that's not considered bannable behaviour.

[suprefan]

Not even worth downloading when it leaks....

[CrystalCastlesFreak]

I'm obsessed with the new track "Madness". Looking forward to the 2nd law

[MuseRadio]

These tracks all suck so far. Time to change my board name? ha.

Yeah, after hearing some say they liked Madness, I gave it a listen and it definitely blows.

[lt.roast.a.botch]

Just going to throw Muse into the same category as Linkin Park

[MuseRadio]

Chris Martin just tweeted that he thinks "Madness" is the best song Muse has ever written, LOL.

[swhite423]

Matt said it was his personal favorite...

I thought it was a good catchy song sure, but I'm still waiting for something that blows me away. This song is miles ahead of Survival though

[cutterbutter]

Maybe they just operate on a different brain frequency then us.

Miles? More like meters. It's sickening.

Madness is not good.

Is ToolHead taken?

Sad to hear all this negativity towards the new stuff. I haven't given it much of a listen yet. But it sounds like whatever hopes I had for it being better than Resistance are dashed.

[amyzzz]

I liked Resistance okay, but I do not like the new songs so far.

[CrystalCastlesFreak]

I'm sporting my Muse shirt and listening to "Blackout" at a breakfast spot. I have Muse fever!

[Miroir Noir]

I guess my perspective on this is colored by the fact that I have always been perfectly ambivalent about Muse to date. I've never found them to be a great band, but I've also had no real critical axe to grind with them, and have enjoyed a couple of songs. I think "Madness" works as a pop single and is at least as good of a track as "Survival" was bad, and doesn't immediately sound like the rest of their discography (at least as much as I am familiar with it). For those who don't like it, what "sucks" or "blows" about it so much?

[SepaGroove]

I actually really like "Madness" and I have never really been a big Muse fan either. It's very different from their other stuff, so at least they're trying something new.

[theklein25]

Madness is going to make a great live song

[dorkfish]

Madness sounds like a remix of a Wham song that didn't make it out of the recording studio. And it has a Fred Durst guitar solo.

[SepaGroove]

Haha ya it kinda seems like they just threw that solo in there. Doesn't really work with the track.

[citizenerased]

Wasn't sold on the first two we've heard, but I love Madness.

[nathanfairchild]

Madness is the best of the worse.

[MuseRadio]

Madness is the best of the worse.

yup....man this album is gonna be BAD.

[CrystalCastlesFreak]

Muse will be the musical act on SNL on 10/6. Madness baby!

[nathanfairchild]

They're also closing out the iTunes festival on September 30th so I'm sure we'll get a good taste of how bad this stuff is live.

[HotHamWater]

Or you can choose to do what I'm doing, and ignore it if you don't like it.

I will be watching.

But why?

[amyzzz]

I think I will choose to ignore any more input Tommy has to this thread.
