I don't care if I get blasted for this... but Muse's latest album... well... it sucked. What happened to the rock? I wasn't surprised, however, by the sound of the new album. You could hear it coming on Black Holes. The Rock-to-Pop ratio has swung waaay to hard to the right, anyone agree?

Here's how I see their albums... feedback plz...

Absolution = Origin of Symmetry > Showbiz > Black Holes & Revelations > The Resistance

Do you do all your retorts by images because you can't come up with them yourself?

But yes an opinion is an opinion... just want to see what everyone else's is

Yeah, you'd have to be a genius to come up with "that's just your opinion, man" wouldn't you, you fucking idiot.

My opinion is that Muse are incredibly boring but, to borrow from that genius line, that's just my opinion, man.

I found The Resistence dissapointing. Certainly didn't live up to the two great albums that preceded it.

Origin of Symmetry > (narrowly) Absolution > Hullabaloo > Showbiz (tbh not much between the four, all solid albums). > all > shit > Black Holes & Revelations > The Resitance.

Hopefully it's just an aberration.

I would go Origin of Symmetry > Absolution > Showbiz > The Resistance > Black Holes & Revelations myself.

TR was not great but MK Ultra a a few other tracks made it a decent album, one of my top 5 for the year at least.

I thought it was obvious...

Like many bands their older music is way better

A common response to you would be "It's better than the music you've composed"

Unless you're Paul McCartney behind that keyboard

So apparently I'm a "fucking idiot" am I? Well if I am I guess I better retract my awful comment about your beloved picture. You win at life. Congratulations.

Without being a big fan of Muse nor having listened to this album, but simply based on the responses by the people on this thread, I speculate they were thinking "Let's do something different"

it has become super cool to hate on the resistance when it is a billion times superior to black holes and revelations
