Muse - The Resistance

So this weekend, I actually PAID for 2 cd's. Never mind that it was only because Demonoid has been down for a while :)

Anyhow, this was one of them, and if you like Muse and haven't got this cd yet, you need to go get it asap. If you haven't checked Muse out before I suggest listening to the song "Unnatural Selection". I may not always agree with the message these guys have in their music, but the vocalist is great, as is the rest of the band.

IMO, they are one of the few bands out nowadays that are original, unique, and can continue to change their style a bit from album to album without it being a bad thing.

Not the type of music I usually listen to but I agree that Muse is one of the most consistently good bands out there.
Technically solid and good writing.

Just saw Muse tonight in Seattle. If you like them and haven't yet, you owe it to yourself to go see them live. Fucking incredibly epic.

I'm ultra jealous!

I was looking for tickets a few months back when they went on sale, was gonna go to the show in Chicago or Michigan, but the only seats left were behind the stage both places.

Tiesto did a pretty slick remix of Resistance.

Cheers to Muse. They played the Pageant down here in St. Louis and I loved their show.

Wife and I are seeing them when they hit LA in September. They, along with Radiohead and Queens of the Stone Age, are my favorite bands of the modern era. Not suprising since Queen is one of my all time favorites and they are admittedly influenced by both Queen and Radiohead. Unnatural Selection is one of our favorites off the new albumn, but I think United States of Eurasia is still my favoite. If you like this albumn Funk, you should really listen to Songs of Absolution (particularly, Apocolypse Please) as it is similar in a lot of ways.

I'm pretty sure Funk is a long-time Muse fan.

Si, senor. I like Queens of the Stone Age quite a bit too, and a few Radiohead songs (although I admit I haven't listened to a lot).

My favorite Muse album is still Black Holes and Revelations by a long shot.

Just got back from this concert, I'm not a huge fan of their new cd and some of their twilighty music as I like to call it... But holy shit these guys put on a good show!

I wish I could do it again, that was fucking amazing!

I saw them when they opened for U2 at the RayJay in Tampa. They put on a hell of a show. I knew about them only from the Knights of Cydonia video, and was pretty impressed with how good they sounded live.

Saw them again at Oxegen 2010 this year - was much more impressed this time around. Bellamy is a total legend, like some kind of savant on the guitar. The stuff he did was just mind blowing.

I saw about 50 bands that weekend, Muse were probably the best of the lot. (Although Jay Z was surprisingly fun, and Newton Faulkner was great too.)

Most disappointing? Arcade Fire, weirdly. I thought they were going to be amazing - they were just alright. :(
