LeaveMyThingAlone Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 An Outstanding group with so much range. A modern day power trio... Just an array of different sounds coming out of these guys. If I had to compare them to anyone, it would be Queen because they both have an opera-like dramatic sound and Queen could go from symphonic to rocking out on a dime just like Muse. I really haven't listened to a lot of the last couple albums. If there are any great songs let me know. I really haven't given them much of a listen yet... Here are my top 10:1. Knights of Cydonia (Love the Natural Science type riff to close it out)2. Newborn (Spirit of Radio anyone?)3. City of Delusion (an underrated gem hidden on their best album)4. Uprising (Obvious and hugely popular choice)5. Hyper Music (The virtuoso side of Muse)6. Stockholm Syndrome (one of their heaviest songs) 7. Hysteria (one of Muse's staples.)8. Supermassive Black Hole (Disco?)9. Survival (Really unique song. Sounds like it could be out of West Side Story)10. Map of the Problematique - Another gem off of Black Holes and Revelations 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I LOVE MUSE! Queen, Rush, Muse, Genesis, David Bowie. That’s been my top 5 for ages now! Top ten Muse songs? That’s hard. I love so many of them, from every album!! I can definitely do a top five... 1. Time Is Running Out (Absolution)2. United States Of Eurasia + Collateral Damage (The Resistance)3. Reapers (Drones)4. New Born (Origin Of Symmetry)5. Hysteria (Absolution) Five more that would probably make my top ten... Map Of The Problematique (Black Holes & Revelations)Exogenesis Symphony (The Resistance)Citizen Erased (Origin Of Symmetry)Madness (The 2nd Law)Revolt (Drones) Oh let me give you some recall from the last two albums!! Simulation Theory - Break It To Me, Propaganda, Algorithms, The Void, Pressure, Something Human, The Dark SideDrones - Dead Inside, Psycho, The Handler, The Globalist, Mercy Here’s my album ranking for kicks: 1. The Resistance2. Origin Of Symmetry3. Drones4. Black Holes & Revelations5. Absolution6. Simulation Theory7. Showbiz8. The 2nd Law I love all 8 of them, the differences from album to album are often very slim. And ever album has multiple songs I would consider top shelf Muse.

toymaker Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) I know nothing about Muse. What is the best introduction album? It's not all gloomy alt rock junk, is it? It's not like Justin Bieber meets hard rock, is it? Edited March 19, 2021 by toymaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like Justin Bieber meets hard rock, is it? It's a wide variety of heavy prog stuff, alt rock bangers, creepy romantic balladry, pop power, Spanish accents, spacey electronics, and lots of doomsday theories. The best album to start with probably depends on what interests you the most out of that, though their 4th album Black Holes & Revelations does a pretty good job of covering all those bases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one sounds most like,say, Deadwing or one of the more recent Mastodon albums? Wikipedia states that the singer does melismatic singing. I really hate that stuff - is there a lot of it? I was thinking of listening to some things on YouTube. I'll check out the Black Holes one if you think that's a good starting point. Update: not warming up to it so far. Does it take a few tries?
