New Muse Album
amok:
I thought Absolution was rather dire, and really enjoyed this. And yeah, there's a bit more progression, it's not just back to Origin - more synths, more variety; not just piano bits, loud bits and Matt breathing.
est:
eh, I loved and hated various bits of all three albums. I do tend to prefer them when the are in full rocking-out mode, with a bit of synth thrown in. "Muscle Museum" from Showbiz is probably my favourite Muse track for that reason, and "Stockholm Syndrome" off Absolution comes in a close second. "Plug-in baby" off Origin is probably third. But then I also like their cover of "Feeling Good" on Origin, and enjoy "Time is Running Out" on Absolution.
But then there are some really boring and/or pretentious-seeming parts which piss me off. I can't remember most of them because they're the songs I generally tend to skip over and ignore.
Also, I am not really sure where I stand on Bellamy's use of falsetto. Sometimes it sounds good and fits the rest of the song. Other times it feels un-needed and unwelcome. He's got a great voice without the falsetto, so why not use it?
Lines:
it's not annoying beach boys like falsetto, therefore, it is ok. and from listening to him, he sounds like a tenor, so it might not even be falsetto...

Did you see the 4Music Presents:Muse the other night? they did three songs from the album and I thought they sounded really good. I like Origin and Absolution, but of course they were both different and this is again.
So far it looks like its just us Brits who get Muse? How odd!?

I like Muse. They are quite big in Mexico.
