Okay now I've listened to Origin of Symmetry and my mind has totally changed. This is prog, and quite extraordinarily fantastic new prog too! This album is a lot more complex and heavier too, lots of soaring guitars to be found here. Yes I think Muse sh

It's a great album but it's not prog.
Some prog fans try to make every band they like prog, but there is good music outside of prog too!!!

If you ever heard Queen II, then you know that Queen were prog.
Yep, I think Muse is prog...right there in the same camp with Mars Volta, Radiohead, V.A.S.T., Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, Mind Science Of The Mind, Sigur Ros, Sunday All Over The Wor

They certainly use all the excesses of prog. If anyone thinks Queen were prog then Muse are. Maybe prog thinly veiled as alt pop rock. Oh yeah, I love em for what its worth.

I'm bemused about the prospect of muse being added to this site. Gdub is my hero, I want to follow in his footsteps, I'll start with imitating his humour, then the rest will follow naturally.

Let's see, I like Prog, most kinds. I heard Absolution and found it noisy and boring. So... no.
