June 19, 201016 yr ^I agree and I haven't even listened to the album :P I mean at least from reviews from critics and and overall view it doesn't seem like it was such an impact of an album. I think honestly we should've waited a year or two, or even 5 before doing a best of the decade list. Especially since people are still digestion or obsessed with albums from last year, it probably skewed people's judgment on overall albums, but that's just my opinion I agree with this, and I'd also like to add on to everyone's point about the Muse albums... First of all, I'm a huge Muse fan; I've seen them live and they're fantastic. However, Resistance was such a massive disappointment. It's their worst album other than their rookie album Showbiz, which doesn't really count for me. Origin of Symmetry, Black Holes and Revelations, and Absolution are all FAR superior.
June 19, 201016 yr I honestly haven't even listened to all of the Resistance. I just couldn't do it. I got so sick of it after repeated attempts to enjoy it. I own all their other albums so I'm not just a big Muse hater or anything.

June 19, 201016 yr Author You can't really judge an album if you've only heard one song. United States of Eurasia is awful. I think The Resistance is their worst album by far and it shouldn't have ranked nearly as high as it did, but I can't help but love Undisclosed Desires and the Exogenesis Symphony...

I was right though. I listened to it on youtube a week ago, I hated it.
June 19, 201016 yr I'm thinking it was ranked so high because it's their latest, and heaps of fans would have got into Muse from that album. I'm guessing that's the same reason for VLV being so high too.
June 19, 201016 yr Nope, it's better cos it has just one good song in it: CSC. The Resistance has.. um.. a better looking singer.
June 19, 201016 yr VLV is better because it has Death And All Of His Friends Death and all His Friends could have been one of the best Coldplay songs, but then they had to go and ruin it with the part of "I don't want to battle from beginning to end..." same thing with 42... it was such a great song until "you thought you might be a ghost" I like LIT, Reign of Love and Strawberry Swing most from VLV
June 19, 201016 yr Reign of love is lovely <3 I agree with what you say about 42 and DAAHF, but DAAHF sounds pretty decent live.
June 19, 201016 yr DAAHF is still really good as well as 42 (both were great live), but I find I slightly cringe when those parts come around. I feel they could've been better
June 19, 201016 yr I hate the string parts in Yes. I'm not very fond of LIT, the beginning is nice, but the sudden change to the part of the chorus (talking about the instrumental) just doesn't fit that well. They need to work a lot more on instrumentals.

They need to work a lot more on instrumentals. How did it not fit? That rise in the song is what made it more upbeat. Without it, LiT would have been pretty dull.

June 19, 201016 yr I do have to agree with the chorus bit in LIT. I felt that the "ohhs" took a bit away from the song. I still love it though, as well as LITII
June 19, 201016 yr Another deluded fanboy who thinks he's more intelligent than I am cos he's a musician. Yeah, I'm sorry I'm wrong. :nice:
June 19, 201016 yr :wreck: Sorry, true. LP5 will be as bad as Viva :nice: Muse's next will be as bad or worse than TR.
