Muse - The Resistance

Best album of the year.

US + MK Ultra + I Belong To You + Exo Part I, II, III > all.

Discuss.

I don't like it.

Then again, I've never liked anything Muse has ever done.

Mine has been sent... hoping it'll arrive tomorrow.

Best album of the year? Come on. I know it hasn't been a great year for music but it's not even my favourite from the bands I like. Post Electric Blues by Idlewild was definitely better and the Arctic Monkeys one might've been better too. And that's just from the bands I like.

It is a great album though, the first four songs are fantastic. I like the lyrics, they're one of the few main stream bands that explicitly write songs against the new world order and the illuminati. Interesting that Bellamy reads into things like the MK Ultra project or HAARP. I think it's their best one overall. I hate how companies put these new albums out in these cardboard cases now.

I think it sucks...

Funny you mentioned the only songs i can actually like, but the rest of the album is pure trash, there's everything in this album but Muse, from Queen to Timbaland. They are getting worse and worse. BH&R wasn't very good, but i could handle it pretty well, but this one is just to much...

Not bad, but not something I'll be listening to frequently.

I second that. Just can't stand it, period.
Shame, because I'm enough of a fan of Muse to drive 600Km to see them live next month...

Same here...

Love it. Exogenesis1/2/3 is absolutely fantastic. Uprising is excellent too. Totally random album with some really **** bits, but all in all very good.

《Black Holes And Revelations》is very classic.
《The Resistance》is also very wonderful.

not a fan of muse but can anyone tell me what's with the epic revolutionary themes? just sounding cool or are they actually political?

just sounding cool...

Forget it. I'm an arse.
'Undisclosed Desires' is the song of the year. Actually, it's the best song I've listened to in a while.
