Black Holes and Revelations

by: Muse

Release Date July 11, 2006
2006 was a good year for me when it came to music; alot of my favorite bands at the time were coming out with great albums. But the best one came from a band that was not one of my favorite bands at the time; and that album was Black Holes and Revelations by Muse. At this time, I was just a casual fan of the singles, but after eventually hearing this album, I am a devout fan (in fact, Muse are now my second favorite band).

1.Take a Bow
An intro that sounds a bit like something out of Origin of Symmetry, and I think it's just as compelling as some of the highlight tracks of that album (New Born, Bliss, etc.). Quite an epic intro, and much darker and more mysterious than most of the rest of the album.
4.5/5

Haarp CD/DVD Set

by: Muse

Release Date April 01, 2008
It's quite disappointing to see some people dismissing this as another live album/DVD not deserving of attention.

This is a true reflection of the energy, dynamism, creativity and imaginsation of MUSE. I'm old enough to remember "Live & Dangerous" being considered one of the best live albums, but listening to it now it sounds bland compared to MUSE at Wembley.

The camera work and editing is terrific and completely reflects the atmosphere and energy in the band and the crowd. The frantic cutting in Stockholm Syndrome reminds me of the mosh pit.

I suspect those not impressed have never seen them live. Go see them then revisit the DVD. If it doesn't light up your eyes then you have no soul.

Showbiz

by: Muse

Release Date September 28, 1999
I don't have much to say of this CD. It rocks, but it's not their best one. They have great songs in there, like "Muscle Museum" and "Sunburn".

But there's one thing: no matter what people say, I just can't see anything in Muse that sounds like Radiohead. I do think that they have totally different styles.

Anyway... It's an awesome first album for an awesome band.

New Wave Christmas - Just Can't Get Enough

by: Wall of Voodoo, David Bowie, Throwing Muses, The Pretenders, The Pogues, Squeeze, Timbuk 3, XTC

Release Date October 15, 1996
I really do love this CD but I do agree with the other reviewers who said that some of the artists on this CD are NOT New Wave groups. Specifically They Might Be Giants, The Buzz Of Delight, Chris Stamey Group and Mono Puff.
If these artists were replaced with the following:

Pet Shop Boys - It Doesn't Snow Often On Christmas
Erasure - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Depeche Mode - Christmas Island
Max Headroom - Merry Christmas, Santa Claus (You're A Lovely Guy)

I, Pat, would be a great deal happier. Anyhoo, that's all I have to say for now. I might be back to edit this review later; but until then... Have a Happy Christmas and a... Merry New Year... is that right?

The Real Ramona

by: Throwing Muses

Release Date March 12, 1991
This is the best Throwing Muses cd. Hersh and Donelly are both in top form. This is the one that made me a fan of the Muses. It's creepy and exciting.

In a Doghouse

by: Throwing Muses

Release Date September 15, 1998
This rules. Throwing Muses back when they were truly unique and hungry. The later stuff is good (especially The Real Ramona), but to be honest, I think Kristin watered the sound of the band down a bit.

This early material is raw and sometimes vicious, yet insanely catchy. Get it.
