Ahh, I'm excited for The Resistance! I just listened to part of one of the songs yesterday, and in good Muse fashion, it rocks my toe socks. *dances* Woohoo new music!

Just downloaded The Resistance from iTunes (was available at midnight). I must say I love it and I've been a fan since my senior year of HS (before Twilight -book- even came out) so I had high expectations. Def a must listen.

No one's talked about The Resistance yet?? Maybe you're all too busy listening to it again and again...

I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, you who are new to Muse and all you veteran fans.

My impressions (in brief): It took a few times of listening to The Resistance, and I was worried at first that it wasn't nearly as strong as previous albums. I thought it was a bit uneven, a bit unpolished. And certainly a departure from what I expected.

But I love it now. The songs feel as familiar as old friends, from the theatrics of Resistance to the vocals in I Belong To You that hearken back to Showbiz era...There's not a song I dislike, not one I skip (depending on current company, of course). Who else could combine Chopin, Orwell, clarinets, Saint-Saëns, 80's rock/R&B sounds, and an orchestra on one album...and make it work?? It's brilliant. Muse is truly epic.

So I don't have any of their cds.
But I do love their songs on the Twilight & NM soundtrack. Supermassive Blackhole is just awesome & great in the baseball scene. I Belong to You is my fav song on the whole NM soundtrack. It's just soo awesome I love it!
I have heard & scene the video for Uprising (I think that's it.)I love how creative the video is, especially the teddy bears coming out of the ground.
I have thought about buying one of their cds, just haven't done it yet. It's an evil thing called money, no $$$$

I actually saw them for my birthday on Saturday. They were truly amazing, it was absolutely epic. I mean, I knew that they won Best Live Act from NME every year but.. wow. I am too short so I knew I wouldn't be able to last long in the pit; thus, I got seats. The seats were reallyyy good, though, so I got an awesome view of the stage. Plug In Baby was AMAZING and so was Starlight.

I remember when HAARP was released and the band would let the crowd sing the words, I found it almost annoying because I wanted to hear the band sing. When I was there, though, they let us sing the "Our hopes and expectations, black holes and revelations" part of the song and it was just so incredible. If any of you have a chance to go to a Muse concert, you MUST go. I'm trying to find another concert I might be able to go to. It was a great experience. The band is even more gorgeous in person, too. ESPECIALLY Dom. :)
