Muse.

What do you think of this band?  I've only heard their last album, Absolution, but I've heard that their previous albums are better...

[Sigur Rós]

Absolution is their best one. Showbiz is ok as well - a couple of good songs like: Fillip, showbiz, muscle museum. Origin of Symmetry is not a great album but there are some ok songs like Citizen Erased.

I'm definately gonna see them at this years Roskilde Fest.

I started off with Absolution, and I loved it. Then I moved on to Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry. Origin is just absolutely incredible and actually diminished my love for Absolution. I know they're different, and as a whole Origin is basically the same song many times, but damn I do love that sound they have on that album. Those notes he hits on Micro Cuts are just unreal.

I'm also digging the b-sides on Hullabaloo, they're groovy and just great songs. Matthew Bellamy is a genius.

Has anyone heard their new single "Supermassive Black Hole"?

It's all I've heard on the new album so far, but holy shit does it suck.  I hope it's not indicative of the rest of the album.

I like their other single a lot.

[Gamblour.]

hmmm. it's pretty bad. Like some weird, sexy dance song, but not good. The guitar solo was awesome, but that's it.

New album leaked...

And it's pretty eh, I think it will take me a while to get into it. All I hear are different versions of songs on previous albums, but I think that's a problem I have with new, unfamiliar material. "Assassin" is fucking amazing, though. The lyrics are political, therefore extremely boring and repetitive. I mean, those opening lyrics are a bit melodramatic. "Starlight" reminds a bit of The Strokes, but it's pretty nice. I hate album titles are things that are "This and That" like "Butterflies and Hurricanes" or that Blink 182 guy's clothes line "Angels and Airwaves".
