  • I've been a Muse fan for a couple of years now. I liked a couple of their hits but then a friend invited me to come with him to a Muse concert with him in 2013. The live experience was amazing and I h

hehe....you too Mo?

 

Well.....I like them since I heard hysteria for the first time.....I bought origin of symmetry......at the beginning I liked it........but somehow I didn't like it that much anymore after some weeks.....

so...actually I'm somehow torn in case of Muse...

Well, I like them in small amounts. They're good if you want something loud and fun.

 

They're better than a load of other bands out there.

hhee.....there you are right......that's for sure....;)

 

i really like to listen to them in a loud volume....that's cool....(but only if my mum doesn't hear it.....hahahaa);)

 

 

however...I have to go....baking a cake and listening to the album again...hehe...bye Mo:kiss:

WOAH!

 

I just watched the Reading Festival on BBC3! OH. MY. GOD!

 

I was blown away. Absolutely phenominal!

 

Brilliant, brilliant rocking set. Completely captivating!

You're becoming a muser mimish? yay! :dance:

i'm loving black holes and revelations :)

Does anybody have good Muse wallpapers.....or does anybody where I can find them?:)

Yeah I wanna know too cause I really want a tab for Hoodoo! :)

 

 

 

ooo I'm addicted to the bridge of Invincible. haha yeah, it's the only reason I listen to the song. Chris' bass riff is so addictive. It's just so Chris. =)

 

As far as I can say, Hoodoo's not very complicated, you basically have to use 4 chords :

 

 

Cm

Fm

D#

G

 

With those ones you can play something correct (I don't know if it works all along the piano thing)

 

Muse rule the world !

Universe is 'Muse' for British band

 

04488eil.jpg

 

STILLWATER, Okla. - British band Muse's fourth album made its way to U.S. shelves last month to an unfortunate, undeserved lukewarm reception.

 

"Black Holes and Revelations" was released in the United States July 11, making its debut more than a week after it was released in European countries.

 

The follow-up to 2003's "Absolution" sold 38,000 copies its first week in the United States and peaked at chart position No. 9 on the Billboard 200, but has been steadily falling downward ever since.

 

Singer Matthew Bellamy explained the meaning behind the title of the band's fourth studio release in an interview for the September 2006 issue of Q Magazine: "Black holes and revelations - they're the two areas of songwriting for me that make up the majority of this album. A revelation about yourself, something personal, something genuine of an everyday nature that maybe people can relate to. Then the black holes are these songs that are from the more ... unknown regions of the imagination."

 

There is no corresponding title track, but the title of the album can be found within the lyrics of second track and single "Starlight."

 

Bellamy's empathy-laden voice is slightly reminiscent of Radiohead's Thom Yorke's, if Yorke were a little younger and a little less laid back.

 

He belts out painstakingly emotive lyrics in a falsetto tone that's pure and raw, with gasping breaths taken between verse lines that magnify the urgency of his message.

 

Track No. 5, short and sweet, supremely mellow and melancholy "Soldier's Poem," clocks in at just more than two minutes. An anti-war ballad, it states, "It's a shame we're all dying / And do you think you deserve your freedom," and, "There's no justice in the world / And there never was."

 

"Assassin" has a faster tempo and a bit of a hard-rock edge. The ninth track, "City of Delusion," employs an orchestral-instrumental melody and a Spanish-sounding trumpet interlude.

 

The last track and first U.S. single, "Knights of Cydonia," is an empowered anthem that asserts "No one's gonna take me alive / The time has come to make things right." It comprises a chorus to which the band members contribute, producing a vocal effect that sounds a little like old Queen, and an intro melody that has a bit of an old-West sound to it.

 

However, the standout track on the album is the fourth, "Map of the Problematic." It is a contagious fast-paced track with poppy techno undertones about lost love and the desperation that comes with it ("I can't get it right / Get it right / Since I met you").

 

Lingering drum beats, pounded-out piano chords and punchy guitar riffs set the tone for each song, rendering each individual tune's sound upbeat, depressing or downright sexual.

 

Given the endless sea of cookie-cutter and sound-alike bands in existence, Muse is a godsend, pushing the musical envelope with spacey background effects, diverse melodies and heartfelt lyrics. "Black Holes and Revelations" is an ambient modern-rock masterpiece. Songs go from apathetic and almost painfully slow to desperate and hurried in a heartbeat.

 

Muse has cruised under the music radar for far too long, unlike better-known, over-hyped and under-talented acts to come from the U.K. such as Coldplay. What is currently one of the biggest musical acts in Europe barely registers a blip on the screen of the American music scene. This is unfortunate, given that the band is quite possibly one of the best bands to come out of England since the Rolling Stones.

 

"Black Holes and Revelations" is a supremely original record that delivers a different auditory experience with each song. Fans of postmodern experimental rock and listeners looking for something different will be very pleasantly surprised.
