The problem with muse is that the music is polluted by stoopid alterno guitars and BADThumbs Down voices! Unfortunately, the really talented keyboardist who plays Wakeman-esque piano parts belongs to a not talented band, and this is REALLY sad! Yes, Muse can be classified the same as radiohead, and their depressive alternative rock tendency is more than unwanted!

THE PROBLEM IS MUSE - NOT YOU! YOU LISTEN TO MUSE: WELL, I WON'T SAY "SHAME ON YOU": I WOULD RATHER TRY TO HELP YOU GET OUT OF THIS MARGINAL BAD TRIP!

Grrr. Nrrgh. Gah. Mooooo.

I would tell you otherwise- arguing that you are wrong Greenback, but after sitting my last exam I have extremely low energy levels.

moooooooo. oh..Gah,

I wonder how many just consider Radiohead and Muse non-prog because they don't like the vocal style. That's nonsense, VdGG and GG have equally unusual vocals ... that's ENTIRELY subjective.

I would also argue with Greenback on that issue - but as he's completely wrong, there's no point

Absolution is a Prog Rock album.

Unfortunately as they stand at the moment the bulk of their catalogue is not prog rock.

Next album will give the proof.

Muse are not prog. Neither are Tool or Radiohead. They're just alternative rock bands who deviate from the norm a bit - Nine Inch Nails might be included as prog by that definition.

I said no but we will have to wait and see their next. They have the maikings to become a decent prog band but dont belong here on the strength of their back cataloge so far.

It's yes for me. I love the way they usesthe keyboard and synths in a verry progy way. Much proggier than a lot of the bands included here. The vocals also gives me that rush-vibe at moments.
It is said to be the first Test-pressing of the corean release??

Sorry but it's Matt Bellamy playing the guitars and keyboards , and also singing. So basically you're just saying that he's really talented and sucks at the same time.

Would you decide already??

oh! all right! this confirms the fact that nobody cannot be good in everything!

now i can solve muse's problem: just tell the guy to shut up, to never use portable instruments and to hire certified musicians!

I wouldn't play for Muse if you paid me... unless it was an unfeasibly large amount

I guess muse are able to pay big bucks if they want someone to join the band. I question that they would ever ask you, as you seems to have quite different taste in music. I once read an interwiev with muse where they stated they didn't like music from the 70's at all, and just listened to new stuff. The reporter told them that they had some of that special prog-spice, and Mathew Bellamy got upsett. What a dork.

I bet you would be able to get to know Wakeman by playing for muse, though. That would be cool..

You might like to talk to Dallasbryan .




All four of these bands have pushed music more than any neo prog band I've ever heard, and indeed more than any symphonic prog bands I've heard since 1980.

You know Hugues, this sort of indecisive remark is not helping anybody ... make up your mind!

Good Lord ... it's roughly 40 something for and 50 something against ... must be something to it ...

I'll check our collection out ...

I think my wife's got 3 albums ... seriously, more and more of her collection is making its way on here ... Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Mogwai, Super Furry Animals ... what next? ... Suede, Coldplay, Gomez?

I draw the line at Elastica!
