their latest output of musical genuis impresses me beyond my wildest dreams
it has some of the finest music I've ever heard
a sick circus of sonic bliss
anyone else agree with me here?

I think it is a very, very, very solid CD... though many people are going to come in here and say it doesn't compare with the earlier stuff released by the band such as that from Absolution... However that is not to say that this CD is bad, it is certainly better than a lot of releases this year.

I must acutally be on the outside here then because I think it's far superior to their previous releases

Black Holes and Revelations was absolutely terrible. This, is bliss to the ears I actually feel the complete opposite. I thought "The Resistance" was only okay. It lacked a lot of what I like from Muse and delved into weird pop sounds at times that seemed beneath them. There were standout tracks (like United Staes of Eurasia and MK Ultra), but not much I could sink my teeth into... most of the songs were really forgettable to me. It left my CD player within 24 hours of my buying it. I will say, however, that the last three tracks, the Exogenesis Symphony, was true genius. That was amazing and could have just been an EP all it's own. To me it doesn't even belong on that album.

Uprising is a great song. I'll definately be getting this CD. "Bliss to the ears" as an above poster said. But to whomever said Black Holes and Revelations was a bad CD, I say FAIL to you sir.

I like the new album alot, but, the last few tracks seem to bring the energy of the album down for me.

I like it a lot, but its definitely sort of a new direction for them in some ways. A lot of songs that seem very radio friendly in comparison to the past (though Black Holes & Revelations picked up steam becaue of Twilight). I'm not complaining, though. If anything, more attention means more people can become aware of how talented they truly are.
Muse is one of the few bands out there that really isn't afraid to try anything, but will go back to the drawing board if it doesn't work out. I think there are elements on The Resistance that work, and some that don't, and I'm sure this album will better their horizons for the future.
Definitely one of the more solid efforts of the year.

Meh each track sounds like another band. "Uprising" sounds likes Battles and "Undisclosed Desires" sounds like Depeche Mode. I really wouldn't call it their best work. But if it get's them huge in America, whatever. They deserve popularity here. They're an amazing band and I feel either this country is intellectually- disabled or Muse is just too good to be huge.

Because then he would never exist, meaning he would never go back in time to perform the abortion, thus creating a temporal paradox.

I'm confused. He says he is 18 but he types like a 5 year old. Either he's lying or he didn't get to ride the "normal" buses to school.

Just got really into Muse again, such an amazing band...
That being said, whenever something from the new CD pops up in shuffle, I usually skip it. I'll have to give it more attention sometime, but at first glance....ehhhh.
