madzip Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 my hubby hates MUSE or 'THE Muse' as he likes to call them... I swear it takes all my time and patience NOT to bop him one when he does... I think he hates them simply because I love them... he's a bit weird like that, still it does keep things interesting!!

Orny92 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 my brothers keep offending Muse just because I love them (but they like their music)!!! and some days ago I made my father listen to Knights of Cydonia telling him it was a wonderful song, and after he listened to it he said:" It's not so bad, but it is a little too much ROCOCO' " "what?" I said, laughing "it has too much doodles" I thought this is really weird!! ROCOCO is a branch of the ancient baroque style,I know it 'cos my art teacher tormented us with italian churches,italian monuments etc etc...your Dad used this word in the metaphorical sense. A friend of mine said they're too "whiny",but however he admitted they're good artists. Ah...he's a lover of USA too,he hates England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thtguyoverthere Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 my friend on a fine art degree in london doesn't like them, i asked why and he said "don't know, they're just a bit of an art community faux pas".....what the hell?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel64 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Asked my dad what he thought of Muse and he said "they are too waaahhh for me"! He now likes to start wailing and waaahhhing everytime I mention them! He did once say their songs sound the same and their music has no beat you can dance to! But he does admit that he likes "some of their stuff" and was actually singing and whistling along to Starlight the other day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greta Garbo Superga Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 ROCOCO is a branch of the ancient baroque style,I know it 'cos my art teacher tormented us with italian churches,italian monuments etc etc...your Dad used this word in the metaphorical sense.] ...I know...In fact my father's an architect and uses a lot of words from art and architecture to mean something else and makes me visit a lot of churches, monuments, galleries and so on...but after all I think that Muse songs are a little rococo...just think about Megalomania. In a certain way this term fits them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orny92 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 yes they're a bit rococo but I think it's not a negative thing...it'a a charateristic of them...maybe is one of the reasons why we like them:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greta Garbo Superga Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 sure!!! I think that's a really good thing!! If they didn't such well-studied songs with all those doodles they would sound rather boring!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Born Lee Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 My friend doesn't like Muse because he's an arrogant git who can't embrace anything unfamiliar to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Bee Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 'The singer sounds like whale giving birth' 'There songs are all the same, too whiny' I can't stand it when people say they like the odd Muse song but couldn't listen to a whole album. You need to listen to a Muse album 4 or 5 times before you start to appreciate the genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neaver Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Guitar Hero is harder than playing fucking guitar. It's dumb. Then again that's what people who don't own Guitar Hero would say:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neaver Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Someone I know didn't go to a gig for an odd reason. Me and my friends were going and the emo/death metal guy didn't go to Muse as he said we were all NEDs (that's chavs in case some don't know). He literally refused to go as we were all NEDs apparently. The only reason he said we were NEDs was because we don't like "real" music like Cradle of Filth, etc. Hmm, yes we like Jimi Hendrix, The Strokes, The Beatles, Cribs, Muse, Editors and Cream to name but a few.....they're all shit though:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to listen to a Muse album 4 or 5 times before you start to appreciate the genius. Try 'The singer sounds like a ghost. I estimate that Matthew Bellamy died around...umm, lets see, the 13th century?' This was my mate after hearing a live version of KOC. He loves it now, though, so it's ok. And I totally agree about the need for a re-listen of Muse albums to appreciate them. With every one (apart from the first one I heard, which was BHAR) I was like meehhh. Then I listened again and again and it got more and more awesome!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to listen to a Muse album 4 or 5 times before you start to appreciate the genius. Not necessarily true. I got hooked on many songs on each album at first hear. The others did have to grow on me, though. I though I was met with a miracle when I heard Bliss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlugInMonster Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I played Micro Cuts to a girl and she said it made her want to kill herself, and this was only a couple of weeks after a friend of hers had killed himself. Another friend of mine seems to think Matt just repeats the words "Bury it" over and over again, and that everything sounds the same... Ah someone who listened to TIRO a tad much?

DoubleTake Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I suggested Muse to this person who wanted some new bands to listen to. I wrote Muse=Epic Music, since it is a fact and then this douche comes along and say Muse=Pop Music, it's like saying Led Zeppelin was a rap band. What a dumb ass.

Kylee Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Supermassive black hole comes on in the car. All of my friends react with outbursts of laughter and one in particular said "this guy sounds so gay, he sounds like a screaming girl" just because not many people have the balls or talent to sing falsetto nowadays doesn't make them gay or a screaming girl.

darkshineskitty Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I've heard the ol' "Matt gasps too loudly" before on this board. Old quote but: "because the lead singer shags his guitar on stage" That's actually the only reason I like Muse Kidding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
