Trefline Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I remember the morning when I heard them for the first time. I was dressing up to go to school, I was already quite late, and I was just struck when I heard the first sounds of Absolution. So I sat on my bed and just listened to the whole song. That was... intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoroy Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I saw the video for Supermassive Black Hole one day and i was completely rapt :O then i look in my itunes library and find out that i had already downloaded Knights of Cydonia, which i instantly liked. Then i thought, holy crap maybe there's more where that came from! and downloaded all their stuff and loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iclipseco Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Its actually kinda sad.. I first heard Muse off guitar hero (in 2006 or 2007). i was watchin a friend play and "Knights of Cydonia" comes on and I was like, "who is this?" he then said,"oh this is Muse... their ok, i guess." i was like holy shit this is so strange but so cool! two weeks later i had bought BHaR. been a Muse freak ever since.

iclipseco Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 The first song that I heard that I know of is Apocalypse Please... My sister was listening to Muse a lot and then it came on and I finally asked who it was and she replied "Muse." i think its hilarious how all these people learn about Muse from their sister..

Melomaan Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 The first time I heard Muse was when Bliss came out and I saw the video on MTV I think I was about 10 and the idea of falling without stopping was kind of terrifying to me! and well, since then I've been a Muse fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minkley Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 For me it was super massive black hole. i was in a bus full of people ignoring it so i felt like i was the only one hearing it, like something so clear which only i could see. i didn't know it was muse so i felt completely blown away and wanted to find out more. so i did... alot.

shineonmuse Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Well, I've been hearing them as some kind of background music throughout my childhood, but I never really took any notice to it, just recognized the "awful" falsetto... When I was younger I used to study my mom's CD covers for some reason. I saw the cover of Origin of Symmetry and found it rather strange. Then she told me 'the story' of the band and gave me the CD to listen to. I fist of all fell in love with Feeling Good, then Plug in baby, New Born and later on all of them... I think I was about 10 at the time. I was really careful in the beginning, as I was afraid I might grow quickly tired of them. I never did though.

Karysmith78 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 About two and a half years ago, my brother bought me BH&R. I had never heard of Muse, but my brother thought I'd love them. My brother and I have similar music tastes, except he tends to like some folky stuff that I don't get into. I'm a big music person so for me to have not heard of Muse, I assumed it was some folk band. The CD probably sat in my desk about 6 or 7 months before I listened to a note of it. One day I randomly threw it on and heard "Take a Bow" - and that was it - thats all it took, one song and I was completely hooked. I quickly devoured the rest of the catalog after that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishum Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 My first hearing that I was aware of was 3 years ago when Supermassive came out. I was like, wtf is this shit? Only after it was played repeatedly 20 times did I start to like and its been my fave muse song ever since. Strange how it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishum Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Supermassive, but I had heard of Hysteria before without knowing Muse had done it. Dunno which youd credit that to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
map_of_your_head Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 November 1999, Muscle Museum was released a few days apart from "Whats my age again, Blink 182" - they both came on back to back on the radio in my Mums car, and I just remember thinking how awesome both songs were!!!

chazmaster2000 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 The first song I remember hearing by Muse was Dead Star on the Kerrang3 double compliation album. I had brought the CD primarily because it included a plethora of bands I was interested at the time, a period in which I was really beginning to get into music, or at least in a commercial sense. Anyway Dead Star just grabbed me with that awesome riff and that menacing verse. The vocals were unusal for me at the time, though they did remind me of Placebo. What struck me most was the bits inbetween the vocals with Bellamy audible gasping for breath which always reminded my of the first scene in Jaws in which the girl gets attacked by the shark. It was a strange illusion but very much a revelation, I've taken Muse very seriously ever since. Dead Star had this sense of savage heaviness and the technicality that I usually associated with classical music. Certainly stopped me from listening to Bowling for Soup and Tenacious D...

night Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Hyper Music - I was browsing a totally different forum and it popped up in a thread and I was totally blown away by its uniqueness and unbelievable bass line. I was hooked to Muse ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egeli Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Lost my Muse-virginity when the SMBH video was on MTV or something a couple of years ago. I was like: "Muse, hm. Nice name, supermassive what? Hm, that guy in the red suit is kinda scary, but ... actually I like him. He's hot. This song is awesome, gotta download it" *Listens to BH&R for a looong time and a friend shows me another CD* WHAT IT ISNT THEIR FIRST ALBUM ?????( i never ever did research on music before i got into Muse) and then I found Origin of Symmetry and just.... fell in love.
