Meet a band inspired by the two best bands of the last
decade (Nirvana and Radiohead). A band - average age 20 -
with eighty songs and four record deals around the world. A
band who've spent the 90's cut off and disenfranchised. A
band who won't be happy until they've ripped the heart from
your chest and shattered your eardrums. Meet MUSE. From
England. But not so you'd notice.
The rock trio consists of guitarist/vocalist Matthew
Bellamy, bassist Chris Wolstenhome and drummer Dominic
Howard. The group's emotive sound and live dates drew
critical acclaim and industry buzz, and after a trip to New
York's CMJ festival, Muse signed a deal with Maverick
Records. Their debut full-length album Showbiz was released
toward the end of 1999. Two years later, Muse issued The More...
Review about Muse MindControl | Reviewer: Ecoli
------ About the song MK Ultra performed by Muse
What many people don't realize is that MK Ultra was a CIA program in the 60's that experimented with mind control. There's a whole lot of speculation about what they discovered though. The CIA tried to pass it off like it was a joke but many people believe that they were seriously investigating and possibly found ways of mind control. They say this would explain JFK, his brother, MArtin Luther King, John Lennon, and all the others' assasinations. So yea just thought I'd let people know what the song was REALLY about.

------ About the song Blackout performed by Muse
This is such a captivating song. When I first heard it I didn't think much of it... But then I really listened to it, and now I simply adore it. It's a song I listen to while I try to sleep... Muse have done well with this piece. Just like every other if theirs c=
blah | Reviewer: Gyohdon
------ About the song Hyper Music performed by Muse
I think these lyrics are about the Cold War.
The golden lies, are the propaganda the US and USSR spread out about eachother, which they then used to feed their roles. 'Look they're lying about us!!', using it to their advantage.
The forgotten space race is obviously about the race to the moon.
Who remains, refers to the leaders of the US and the USSR from the period of the Cold War not being here anymore.
The next part is about their hatred for eachother and how they will never be allies.
And then comes the part where the two sides bluff eachotherm, Like with the Cuba Crisis.
Addiction | Reviewer: Jniz
------ About the song Starlight performed by Muse
This song is about a drug addiction. The drug has distanced him from his loved ones. he is chasing after "starlight" for the rest of his life and doesn't know if its worth it to keep up his infatuation with the drug any longer. But he can't let it go because the drugs electrify his life.

------ About the song Take A Bow performed by Muse
U guys who are squabbling over the government thing dont get it, its just because a band has lyrics that seem to be against the government doesnt mean they are building a secret underground army of anti capitalisms. the lyrics just reflect a refreshing point of view on politics and are awesome to listen to.
i found that reading some JOHN TITOR quotes while listening to this album goes great.
genious | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About artist/band Muse
muse is for sure one of the most talented bands around at the moment. what really impresses me is their ability to mix so many types of music in one album. the reistance is really genious. it has some really heavy metal, some world class pop and r'n'b, a 13 minute long classic symphony, and even some jazz, opera and arabic music. too few band have this level of ambition.
Vampires | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Apocalypse Please performed by Muse
Actually kat, what mudkip means by saying that Vampires dont sparkle, is that the normal vampires that we read about as children didnt sparkle. Even though they arent real, vampires have certain characteristics that make them what they are. For example, dragons arent real, right? But if you saw or read a story about a dragon that breathed, say water instead of fire, you would say, hey thats not right dragons are supposed to breathe fire, even though dragons arent real. Wouldnt you? = )

------ About the song Map Of The Problematique performed by Muse
Right, so I love muse. Listen to their awesomeness every single day. A lot of the time, I don't tend to listen to the lyrics ciz I'm busy doing other things at the time. But this is one of their songs when you really listen to the lyrics, you see things in a new way. These lyrics are absolutely amazing and mindblowingly awesome. Matt is a lyrical and musical genius.
Enjoy the music - save the thoughts on the meaning for forums. To one of the comments below me - I had to laugh "i think its about America", the band are British I highly doubt they sit and thing up a song specifically for you
I saw MUSE live last night | Reviewer: stiff
------ About the song Sing For Absolution performed by Muse
The real topic my friends is this Man Mathew Bellamy and his band will go down in history as one of, if not the worlds Greatest Alternative Rock bands.
I saw them live last night and I am still recovering. I had tears rolling down my eyes (and i was straight BTW).
They bring joy, passion, elation, & inspiration into my boring mundane life.
I haven't found a band this profoundly gifted since the early Queen, Pink Floyd, Jimi Handrix. but they actually pale in comparison - sorry Freddie.
The way they incorporate classical music elements is sublime, I've actually always loved rock with classical incorp'd, i believe its a normal evolution, its just the majority of bands that try to do it come of sounding Corny.
I'll finish my rant by saying: I am so happy they were around in my life time, and that I have had the complete and utter luxury of seeing them LIVE. and I thank god for our independent radio station 'Triple J' who put me on to MUSE a fucking decade or more ago.
Their first Studio Album 'showbiz' was released in 1999 all songs were written by Matt Bellamy. and that's about the same time that triple J started playing them.

------ About the song Unintended performed by Muse
I heard this song recently and I devoted it to my 5 yo autistic son.
He is the "unintended" love of my life.
I sing it to him every night since, before he goes to sleep and he always smiles and closes his eyes.
Wouldn't you call this talent?

------ About the song Micro Cuts performed by Muse
Montreaux Jazz Festival 2002... Awesome performance! Though I consider Citizen Erased their best song, and they always put some great shows when they play live, they kick some ass playing this one... I hardly can think of a better live performance... theirs or anyone else's... Awesome performance!!
Immensely Engaging. | Reviewer: Wills
------ About the song Starlight performed by Muse
This song strikes an excellent balance lyrically between being open ended enough to invite a wide personal response, and being precise enough not to slide into lapse into an all too often encountered pitfall of ambiguity.
On a musical level, I think this song doesn't miss a beat, having a great deal of depth especially for a three piece band. Bellamy's vocals seem to have a romance about them, if you will, that resonates deeply. Furthermore, that driving drum beat that is inexorably militaristic really picks up the message of this song, such that it engages listeners throughout the whole duration of the song.
That 'military precision' drum beat, I believe, really validates Ricky's interpretation of this song, although I would challenge the proposition that Muse are a Punk/Emo band. While their origin's lie in the Post Punk movement (Much like Radiohead) Muse are purely and Alternative/Progressive Rock band.
I would most definitely agree that this song has that nostalgic element to it, no doubt experienced by soldiers whilst going to war, etc. But as other's have no doubt discussed, this song's lyrics extend well beyond that. I find that it can just as easily apply to my own personal life, as well as that of many others.
This is done through the emotion of a resentment for missed opportunities, particularly pertaining to love, which permeates through this song. I myself for example have recently come to grips with that delayed regret of missed opportunity, coupled with knowing you can never return to rectify the matter.
Finally, to everyone who has been saying that this is what Muse is all about, I full heartedly agree with you. This is perhaps my favourite song from them, in spite of the fact that people have called it a 'balladic wankfest'.
There is a glimmer of hope, I've noticed in this song, which reminded me of a quote "You can't turn back the clock, certainly. But you don't have to wind it either."
Cheers Guys

Twilight??? WTF | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Bliss performed by Muse
This song is brilliant! I love it so much but it has nothing to do with twilight. I like twilight... a bit...but this song was written before twilight was even thought of! Just because Muse ( the best band ever) has been in the twilight and new moon soundtracks dosen't mean that all there songs are related to them.
A call to arms | Reviewer: Wifflum
------ About the song Assassin performed by Muse
This is not a warning. This is not a message to leaders.
As with other songs by Muse, this song is directed to the people. It is a call to arms. Now is the time when assassins are needed. This demonocracy needs to fall; this government where money rules all.
These songs are no peaceful warnings to power, they are calls for the people to break that power. The time has passed to vote our leaders down, it is time to shoot them down.
The atheist is not finding religion | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Thoughts of a Dying Atheist performed by Muse
The reason the atheist in the song is scared of dying is because he realizes there is nothing after they die. He isn't realizing suddenly that there's a God and he's going to hell. He's facing the reality he's known for as long as he's been an atheist-there is nothing after you die. For thinking beings, nothing is more frightening than the thought of no longer existing. In comparison, being tortured and punished for all eternity in hell is not nearly as bad.
I wanted to say that this song rocks. I love the way that he sang it, it's so beautiful.i always listen 2 this song and repeat it. But 2 bad the song's short. But the song still rocks!!!! Those 2 guys r right muse can totally cover. Big fan and Muse rocks
