Summary: Put the Rach in Rock
Comment: Loosely conceptual foray into 21st century spirituality is another outstanding release from one of the only bands to shed their Radiohead comparisons. Instead, Bellamy's strong falsetto and background romantic-classical pianist education continue to fuel their rock music into more passionately melodic avenues of thought, although it could be a little more evenly balanced with their less daring, straight-forward rockers, still quite on point in their own right.

Summary: Music Binge
Comment: I stopped listening to music, buying albums and following the scene in the mid 90s being burnt out on what I thought was boring generic music that was being produced and marketed to a former KROQ listener like me. So that means I missed out on Radiohead (Bends, OK Computer, Kid A), Coldplay and of course Muse. Of course I heard of, not listened to, the 1st two bands I mentioned but didn't care. Until, I heard Coldplay's title track a few months ago. So I bought that song. I thought it was a great song but the album was not out yet and I felt like I needed more music. So I bought In Rainbows by Radiohead remembering the hype about their unique marketing last year. I loved it and wanted more.
This was a life changing experience. That eventually brought me to Muse. First, I bought Black Holes and Revelations which is some of the most unique and fun music I have ever heard. Then I got Absolution a couple weeks ago. OMG. Some of these songs put tingles in my spine. Now, I hope they break out in America and become as well known as Radiohead and Colplay. I am now a Muse fan for life.
Yes they sound alike. But that doesn't matter because they all are great bands and have their unique sound. For me, Radiohead is the best band ever with Muse a close second.
PS I have been recently watching Entourage and thought it was cool that I recognized Muse on one the episodes.

Summary: om my god, wow out, awesome, great discovery.
Comment: im overwhelmed to write anything for now-too many great things to say 'bout this lp/group. Goin across radiohead on the web; web gave muse as a similar like. I heard half a bar of the simple "apocalypse please" and then new this band was great-3 piece at that, since i used to play/write/study classical works in 70's of the chopin/beethoven/brahms, etc. type. Every song is good/different/original so far ive heard). Got their lp titled tour ticket rt. after/saw their kissimmee concert near here-greatshow. Of all their lps i have now, this is their best next to showbiz, origin.., & their 2006 lp which is just ok. Like all bands they have to change up for stylechange experience/newfans and $. Not to overdo it, i like this band-talented, cool, esp. in this age they started in, who kept classicrock goin-british rock rules forever.

Summary: The best alternative album
Comment: This is the best cd that I've purchased in a long time. Every track is great and the flow between songs can not be recreated. This is a great band and a great cd.
