diamond_writer Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 My mom said that Muse was crap.Now she's OK with them, but still. I'm appalled that her genes are in me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupus Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 You sure they don't mean the Resonator in the Plug In Baby video? I can see why someone might think that, but really, it doesn't look like a banjo. At all. A banjo? No. I think it's one of the coolest guitars I've seen. Strange, I can agree with that. 1. Matt sounds like a cat, looks like a mouse, and his henchmen are rats. I don't like Chris and Dom being called "henchmen" 2. Muse is boring 3. SBH was created for Twilight 4. Muse sounds the same 5. Their only good songs are either, "That song from Twilight" or "That song that plays on the radio" 6. I think it is crazy that Matt said he is a crap guitar player and Chris Martin is a better singer than him 7. Muse sucks and should not be put in the list of good bands 8. All mainstream bands are better than Muse 9. I showed someone a pick of Matt and they said "It's the guy from radioplay! I like them." 10. Matt sounds exaclty like Thom Yorke ZOMG I CAN GO ON FOREVER!!! People.. I sort of understand that... but yea, henchmen--no. I wouldn't describe him that bad, but I get it at least.

idolentiae Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I haven't read all the posts and would rather not be redundant BUT I always get the Is- this- Radiohead? question when I'm playing any track, old or new. To further substantiate my point on a wider scale, I watched a recent episode of Jeopardy in which they played a song clip from "Uprising," and the only one person out of three willing to give the band name a guess after 30 seconds said, "Who is Radiohead?"

It's from my friend who HATES muse with a burning passion. Before I showed her Uprising, and then she switched it to Taylor Swift before the first chorus. Also, we are both pianists so I showed her Piano Thing. She liked it until she learned the artist, then she called it boring. She's on a mission to convince everyone muse sucks, but I will be victorious!:dance: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaHawk2009 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I've got a few. *Upon listening to The Resistance CD in the car with my mum - we were up to MK Ultra* "They sound a bit like Take That doing a Freddie Mercury impression" *At my friend's house, he tells me to plug my iPod into the speakers and put some music on. I put Showbiz (song) on* "Umm, Jamie, why have you put some emo grunge shit on?" I had to explain that Muse are not 'emo-grunge' as he called it... *At school in Geography class before the lesson started, talking to my mate (who I was jealous of because he was going to the Muse gig at L.C.C.C. that night). We're discussing which album is best, another one of my friends walks past, hears what we're talking about and just says; "Everything Muse do is shit. Listen to Kyuss if you want some GOOD music!" Then he walked off. Me and my muse-loving mate ignored him until the next day. My friends are generally musical idiots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GloriousAssassin Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 All Muse songs sound just the same and the one that pissed me: Muse has a negative and vewy bad influence on me!

Lupus Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Oh don't get me wrong - I do like Kyuss & QOTSA, but Muse are better than both of them. I wouldn´t be that sure... At least someone agrees with me! I'd say they're equal to me, because they're hard to compare. They're each one of the best in their own rights. My sister today: "Isn't Matt Bellamy the guy off the X Factor?" I think that takes the cake for top ten of most ridiculous! Simon doesn't really look like Matt....maybe the accent made her think so?

IngeVS Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 when a friend heard the first singing where Matt uses his falsetto of KoC (the Nananaaaa....), he asked me: "that's cool, what instrument to they use for that?"

He just couldn't believe it was his voice As amazing as Matt's voice is, I know it's someone singing... it doesn't sound like an instrument to me. But I have heard guitars sound like a voice and vice versa. Cool that he thought his voice was that amazing though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I can totally understand some of the stuff on Showbiz being called 'emo-grunge' They were pretty heavily influenced by Nirvana early on after all, and Matt's whiny voice back then added to that. But ah, they were young and unsophisticated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
