I read this article on NME disclosing the tracklist of the new Muse album, due to be released on September 14:
http://www.nme.com/news/nme/45845 What surprised me was this: The album, due for release on September 14, will contain 11 tracks, including a three-part symphony under the title 'Exogenesis'. Is that prog or what? We may witness the arise of a new, awesome, prog band. |

I prefer poppy Muse like Time Is Running Out, but I'm still pretty excited for this.

Awesome. Muse is a really cool band. Wonder if they can tackle this successfully. |

If it's really political, it will be for the worse. I will not shun away from Green Day comparisons, thematically.

Uh oh, this could mean we might have to move another non-prog band to Crossover like we did with Coheed.

Muse can definitely mean prog.

Coheed and Cambria are in no way prog... Neither is MUSE. I like to think of these bands as "Slightly experimental alt. rock" |

I have been following Muse with some interest from their early days. I believe that each release is a vast improvement on the prior releases. This new one sounds very interesting and I look forward to its general release. Could this be their progiest effort yet? Fingers crossed

PA is the one of the only places that don't consider Muse progressive (check out last.fm & kerrang etc) But I agree with the PA guys with prog related.But I sure hope they will venture into it soon.

I always considered them a slightly poppier 'Space-Rock', or at least Xover. |

Of course they were - I was just saying that it's time for them to become a full-blown prog band. |

Cross over would be a good one.There's so many great examples on Origin of symmetry but every time I feel I Should mention it they release pop singles.Anyhow one of the best bands I've seen live. |

I only have Origin of Symmetry, and I do agree that it has more prog moments than I expected based on the singles I've heard from them. The prominence of the keyboards and the arpeggios and ostinatos, a couple of odd times in a couple tracks, Bellamy's incredible range...
Of course, I still think prog-related is a good fit for them. That's just me.

I can only think they would be moved if the majority of the albums were released were progressive.Giving a clear sign of there musical tendencies.Maybe in ten years time,huh?
