  1. 1. Why do you think Muse gets little radio publicity in America

    • Americans dont appreciate good music
    • Americans are consumed with hip hop
    • Radio producers are crazy
    • They get plenty of publicity

Radio producers aren't crazy, they just know what will get people listening. Americans aren't actually obsessed with hip-hop anymore. The new pop thing is essentially house music with catchier hooks (Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Kesha, Enrique, so on and so forth). Obviously Muse don't really fit into that mold, despite the attempt with UD, so they don't really get the airplay. To me it seems like they're the token "Oh yeah, rock music...fine here's one for you." Not to mention that obtuse political statements in lyrics aren't exactly "sexy."

They get a LOT of radio airplay here in the SF area. I think it depends on which stations you listen to. They will get airplay on alternative/rock stations vs, Top 40/Pop.

I have noticed that. I've seen a lot of people who have heard Uprising at least. Maybe Starlight

 

They don't know anything else though
