foolgool Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I searched as hard as I possibly could, and could not find a topic for Muse, who I think are one of the top British bands of today. A brief history: They have put out four albums to date; in chronological order, they are Showbiz, Absolution, Origin of Symmetry, and Black Holes & Revelations. First released was Showbiz, put out in 1999. Next came Origin of Symmetry, released in the US in 2005. Absolution, although released as their third album, was released in 2003. Finally, Black Holes & Revelations was released in 2006. Matthew Bellamy is the unique voice of Muse, also playing guitar and piano in some songs. He is backed by Christopher Wolstenholme on bass, synthesizer, and backup vocals, and Dominic Howard on drums and percussion. Here are the music videos for my personal favorite song from each album: Showbiz-Uno[hide=] [/hide] Origin of Symmetry-New Born [hide=] [/hide] Absolution-Butterflies & Hurricanes [hide=] [/hide] Black Holes & Revelations-Assassain [hide=] [/hide] The code in my sig should say 1032 not 0132.

Lateralus Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I used to listen to them quite a lot. They're a good band, but I've gone off them lately. I'd still definitely go and see them live though. I've been to see them 3 (maybe 4?) times, and each show was crazier than the last. La lune ne garde aucune rancune.

Da Pirates Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 They're not that popular in the US. I've only heard like 2 of their songs. BR BR BR? HUEHUEHEUEHUE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range_This11 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 They're not that popular in the US. I've only heard like 2 of their songs. Actually they're quite popular. Most of my high school listened to Muse. I have most of their albums.

Uldric Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Listened to their albums and enjoy Black Holes the most. It's one of those albums where 90% of the songs are decent and you can listen to it all the way through. My favourite song would be Knight of Cydonia. Good film clip too.

Intriguing Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Absolution is a fantastic album. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klankaos Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Aww, Muse... I love them. Listened to them a lot a while back, gone off them recently because I haven't had the cash to buy any of their albums and I've just recently gotten so pissed off at music downloading that I don't do it any more and therefore can't get any new Muse. But I do so love them. My favourite song's gotta be Plug In Baby just for the SWEET guitar line it opens with. So much fun. Being immature is a part of being mature.

How2PK Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 What Lateralus said goes for me as well. Except I haven't seen them, which is a shame because I'd really like to see them.

Iamdan Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I don't really like the vocals, the guy sounds... whiny. KoC is a good song though :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assassin_696 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I haven't listened to them much recently, but they'd be top of my list of bands to see live if I could. Apparently Matt Bellamy's virtuosity and showmanship has reached such prolific heights that the audience are often reduced to stunned silence after songs before the applause starts.

rangeor Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Muse are amazing. They're easily one of my favorite bands. And you forgot Hullabaloo, the live album :P these are my favorites: Showbiz - Sober [hide=Sober] [/hide] Origin of Symmetry - Hyper Music [hide=Hyper Music] [/hide] Hullabaloo - The Gallery [hide=The Gallery] [/hide] Absolution - Fury (this was a b-side) and to all of you reading: don't skip this video. or at least the first 30 seconds. it's amazing. [hide=Fury] [/hide] Black Holes and Revelations - Supermassive Black Hole [hide=Supermassive Black Hole] [/hide] Yep, those are my favorites! And I can play all of them on guitar too :P Edit: WOAH. I just checked muse's youtube channel, and greenday subscribed to them. o.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macmaster92 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 How could you are you all forget Time is Running Out and Starlight? Those are like they're two best songs. Muse is definitely and the top of my list of concerts I want to see. Right up with Coldplay. I hear they both throw outstanding concerts. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klankaos Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Jeez, Mac, good point. Those are two of my four and I forgot them :wall: Okay, newly revised list of top four Muse songs for me: Supermassive Black Hole Plug In Baby Time Is Running Out Starlight =P Being immature is a part of being mature.

krisc6 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Best live band on the scene...I think there incredible.Ive seen them once in manchester just after the release of black holes and revelations and it was probably the best concert ive been to. I cant wait for there next album, rumor is theres going to be some kind of 15 minute space solo with an orchestra :shock: Top 5 muse songs: Stockholm Syndrome:Phenomenal, even better live because it develops into a 9 minute destruction song, every gig they eneded with it on they ended with a destroyed set and it still sounds magnificent. Starlight Super Massive Black Holes Knights of Cydonia Butterflies and Hurricanes. I agree there songs are pretentious, but they deserve to be and compared to coldplay, there downwright modest :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macmaster92 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Knights of Cydonia I love the trumpet solo in that song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
