- gvoakes, on 10/02/2009, -3/+24It's about time Muse hit North America. I've been a fan for years and it was always disappointing that they played Europe only.
- tastybbq, on 10/02/2009, -0/+18They've been big for a while now...
- Lemonseamonkey, on 10/02/2009, -0/+12How come everyone buries people who are disappointed with the new album? As a loooong time fan, I thought it strayed too far from rock and into pop. I'll just blame that on them being in the twilight soundtrack. Goddamn sparkly vampires
- EmitStop, on 10/02/2009, -3/+13I like muse, but found this new album to be a very disappointing collection of their other songs rehashed.
- Subduction, on 10/02/2009, -0/+8Mine is killing a hobo.
- copypastry, on 10/02/2009, -1/+9Not much to explain, it's one of the manliest music videos ever produced.
Edit - there is also a ROBOT. - waydee, on 10/02/2009, -0/+4I liked Muse many years ago but these days they seem to have lost their way, opening shows for U2 says it all.
Write songs like sunburn again. - aychseven, on 10/02/2009, -0/+4i completely agree.
- Lemonseamonkey, on 10/02/2009, -0/+4What's not to understand about that?
- Lemonseamonkey, on 10/02/2009, -0/+3And they're in the new twilight movie too. *sigh* I just want good ol' fashioned progressive rock, not this new poppy stuff.
- IncredibleBoot, on 10/02/2009, -0/+3Totally. I absolutely love Muse but this is possibly their worst album overall. Altho I do like the song "Uprising"
- catalyst2590, on 10/02/2009, -0/+3so there are these knights and theyre from cydonia and then theres this kung fu guy and this chick and this one guy tries to steal that chick and then the evil cowboy battles the cowboy and they all have laser guns
- steevilweevil, on 10/02/2009, -0/+3if you want to know what muse are actually like get the first 2 albums. The new album is just horrific, I've listened to them for about 10 years and I didn't bother buying it.
- seraph1982, on 10/02/2009, -0/+2I'm going to see Muse/U2, and I may not even stay to watch U2 - not very interested. It's a Muse concert, if you ask me!
- Swivelstick, on 10/02/2009, -0/+2Overblown melodrama indeed.
- IncredibleBoot, on 10/02/2009, -1/+2That's a pretty critical opinion of their latest album from someone calling their music "overblown melodrama"
- Charun, on 10/02/2009, -0/+1Matt Bellamy has ridiculouly stupid views on file sharing

Just FYI - stonedgeek, on 10/05/2009, -0/+1Would I get a discount if I left before U2 started playing?
- digitalArtform, on 10/02/2009, -0/+1Can somebody explain to me that song with the cowboy who knows kung fu and has a laser six-shooter?
- stonedgeek, on 10/05/2009, -0/+1But ridiculously awesome views on Glenn Beck
http://digg.com/d3166Qd - elcalrissian, on 10/02/2009, -0/+15 years ago, most people could only recognize 1 of those bands.
5 years ago I may have agreed with you as a top 3 favorite rock group list.
Today, I hold them in the same regard I held Sublime in the early 90's. Love your old stuff, but I cringe every time an Abercrombie'd Jonas Brothers convert says the love Muse because they played their song on Guitar Hero. - LokitheComplex, on 10/02/2009, -0/+1untold consensus?
Convince me no one argues here. - FurtThePirate, on 10/02/2009, -0/+1you know what I'm just not going to do anything :P
- Lemonseamonkey, on 10/02/2009, -1/+2Well, I will admit the new symphony is very nice. But put an orchestra with a band and i tend to get all eargasmy
- elcalrissian, on 10/02/2009, -0/+1Muse was good.
Then the got US popular.
Anyone remember U2 from the early 80's? They were bad ass. Not anymore though. Muse opening for U2 is the official shark jumper.
I'll always enjoy Origin of Symmetry and Absolution. - suprememilo, on 10/02/2009, -1/+1The song sounded a lot better on the BluRay than it does on the CD, so I approve.
- MattyC69, on 10/02/2009, -2/+2As a long time Muse fan, I think everyone will agree with me when I say, it's about damn time. America is always so slow to catch on to global trends.
- skiindude22, on 10/02/2009, -0/+0I hope they don't get so popular that I can't stand to hear them anymore. That seems to happen with a lot of my music.
- dyne66, on 10/02/2009, -0/+0apparently thats the beauty of dream theater (whom take a lot of recent muse influence).
"they are the biggest band the world hasnt heard of" - Dr3w, on 10/02/2009, -1/+11. Radiohead
2. Sigur Ros
3. Muse - suprememilo, on 10/02/2009, -3/+2Could have bought the ticket for the Saturday Muse show at ACL a couple years ago, didn't, it's one of the biggest regrets of my life.
- Shezzadine, on 10/02/2009, -1/+0Brilliant! They've been fantastic live from the beginning - they'll suit U2 well in getting the crowds going
- orientis, on 10/02/2009, -5/+4Considering I had to review the damn thing, yes, it is critical. There are parts of that album that sound like emo RnB. It's awful.
- pook187, on 10/02/2009, -3/+1Overrated.
- MercenarySlick, on 10/02/2009, -9/+4Muse sucks. Terrible, fake, overly melodramatic bullcrap designed to impress mindless, angst-ridden teenagers. If they just got big in America then they're already overrated.
Now thumb me down because I didn't conform to the untold consensus that exists in every single topic on Digg. - Worldsday, on 10/02/2009, -10/+4I wish the headline were literal...
- thejackyl, on 10/02/2009, -12/+1Really. This is front page material. Really.
- orientis, on 10/02/2009, -21/+8I can't stand Muse. Overblown melodrama with a vocalist who just whines. The latest album is so self-indulgent it's unbelievable.
