MUSE - Resistance
 

I'm going to stick my neck out here and abandon the flock.......


I've loved everything they have released before but seriously SERIOUSLY hate this album so far. Major disappointment in my view.

Disappearing up the route of formulaic songwriting and some tracks just seem so contrived it's untrue.

EPIC FAIL boys, sorry.

Not heard any of it,being honest i only like a few of there tracks anyway

See them live and they are superb, talent beyond belief to be honest but they have really believed the hype with this album :brickwall

I've got tickets to the Lyon concert, already sold out - From this, hope they do some of the old stuff.

They started down that path with Black Holes imo, they lost their edge after Absolution. I would agree though for a 3 piece they can't arf make some sound, their best gig for me was the set they did at Chelmford V festival 2001 in the pissing rain, awesome.

WWSD, have a listen to "In Rainbows", it touches your soul man.

I'm a big fan of Muse, owning all their albums, many song books and having been to see them live and I really wanted to come on here and say WTF are you on about!?!? But, I have to agree :( No songs have grabbed me yet; gone are the days when I can just go and get their new album knowing it will be brill. I'll give it another couple of goes but at the moment it just sounds like a second choice background music album :(

One of the reasons now i just download the song i want from the net,instead of buying the album and only liking maybe 4 songs from it.

englands best band by miles,wait till you hear them play the tracks from the resistance cd live your change your minds.

And that's why I'm so disappointed.


But I have. still not impressed.


I really really wanted to love it. Brilliant band and I feel bad not liking it but there's no getting round the fact that it's very formulaic, clearly influenced by Queen and not terribly original as a result.

Thankfully, it looks like this is not just my opinion either.

Its about $2 from mp3va.com I think I will get it and see if its that naff. It will break my heart if its rubbish, Matthem Bellamy is a proper guitar hero.

Tried it three times now and I still think it's ****e. Far too different for my liking, too much 80's crap and classical stuff.
Pm me if anyone wants my copy. I'll post it out for £5.
Big let down.
