Buxomflirter Queef Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 it was a rediculous review, not only hidden from readers, but also just a list of other artists that it reminded them of Ridiculous, sorry I see this often and it really bugs me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaSarahS Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 http://drownedinsound.com/releases/17256/reviews/4145540 8/10 the Drowned in Sound review is quite interesting. That was great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 But they were on the front cover? Yes, they were, but the was a feature piece to go with it. The actual review was mixed together with the Green Day's review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picko Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I've done my own review on my blog. Be warned though, it is a bit long as I've done about a paragraph of each song. http://sam-picko.blogspot.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unidentifiable Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 No one has scanned/typed the NME review yet? Who buys the NME everything good is available online, even their reviews after a few days. They should do what Q do and make a totally useless website, so that you have to buy the magazine...

Tofu Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 The blatant borrowing is one thing all reviews seem to agree on, whether they appreciate it or not. Not a bad review, it didn't mention radiohead. A cursory glance at my notepad reveals that – Queen hits aside – I picked up references to INXS, the White Stripes, Radiohead and Led Zeppelin, Lloyd Webber musicals, Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No 1, Gloria Gaynor’s I Will Survive, Jean Michel Jarre’s use of bombastic choirs who sound like they’re singing from the rooftops of falling skyscrapers and Badfinger’s classic power ballad Without You I still don't see what the big deal about Madness is, nor do I see how Panic Station is in any way prog, but hey.

Dillyracer Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I'd say the 8/10 is pretty much a consensus between reviewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p_of_cydonia Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 The blatant borrowing is one thing all reviews seem to agree on, whether they appreciate it or not. Not a bad review, it didn't mention radiohead. I think what makes Muse's borrowing bit more obvious is that they're borrowing from many different genres and bands where most of modern indie acts borrow from one genre (basically 70s new york punk). and also, most indie bands' melodies are obscure. it's very difficult to identify the source of an obscure, indifferent melody. the 2nd law may have some issues but, I swear, even its most generic track is more memorable than most of the stuff out there.

spark_ Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Gotta say, very, very surprised at how little variation there is in the scores. Thought they'd be all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
