I listened to that Olympic version again today, there were a few whining that it wasn't fully live, but I thought it was still an awesome performance. I bought Showbiz on tape; used to listen to Unintended over and over - brilliant! As you say, their new stuff's great; it's unique and interesting, but still catchy and accessible.

Sounds a bit boring to me.

To be fair, I listened to the first 3 or 4 seconds then skipped to 60 - 63 seconds of the video and it was the same.

Sounded all whingy to me - No energy, no anger, no fire.

The kind of work colleague you just want to punch.

Repeatedly.

On the face.

Then nick his lunch and flush it down the bog.

Or am I on my own here?

Yeah, there's definitely some Queen in the harmonies, and a fusion of Bono and Thom Yorke in the way the vocals are delivered. As I said, unique.

ETA And snippets of the guitar solo sound like they're from Radio Ga Ga.

Origin of symmetry, Black holes and revelations, an Absolution were brilliant and made me think Muse were the best band of the last 15 years, the above song and the last album are complete crap IMO. I do not know how a band that was that good became so ****.

They were different Grade on Jools Holand last week, well worth watching if you can.

One of the best live experiences ever seeing Muse in 2001

Agree with some of the above comments, the earlier stuff was better but Supremacy and Madness aren't bad efforts

Not sure I like it - seems like Matt Bellamy is in danger of disappearing up his own a**e. Saw them at the O2 a year or so ago and it was a great show. Going to see them in Brum in a couple of weeks time, and worried it won't be half as good.

The track from the OP is bland. Gave up after the first 1.5 mins. Cant say I have really followed them but I did enjoy Undisclosed Desires when I saw them perform it on Jonathon Ross:

Actually, it's I want to break free the guitar sounds a bit like, not Radio Ga Ga.

Totally agree with this. They used to be 'must purchase/know i'll like' band. I've played their last album twice and won't be buying the new one.
