Editorial Review: Album Description: Aussie limited edition of 2003 album features 14 tracks & includes a bonus DVD (PAL) featuring a 40 minute documentary on the making of the album, band outtakes, & a studio photo gallery. Festival. Amazon.com: One can't listen to Muse without hearing Bends-era Radiohead, so it's necessary to start there. But for all the familiar grandeur and gloom, Muse's other catharsis-rock influences, like Queen, Slade, and even Black Sabbath, provide the band with a dazzling, heart-on-their-sleeves theatricality. Always threatening to layer on another falsetto from singer Matt Bellamy, or conjure more guitar crunch from the ether, Absolution is downright Baroque in parts, like a Rufus Wainwright-penned rock opera fantasy. Yes, the record is completely unoriginal. But when these guys let it rip, there's no doubt they have the fever. "Stockholm Syndrome," for one, could only be produced by True Believers with a lust for power chord drama, full of angst, envy, and the bitter end of it all. If you wish a certain Thom Yorke-led outfit from Oxford had made another record or two before evolving into minor-key art rockers, Muse carry the torch for another few miles, gloriously and tragically unaware that they're running in circles. --Matthew Cooke Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - PerfectThere's a reason this cd has such a great review rating. Buy. Now. :) Rating:  - Put the Rach in RockLoosely conceptual foray into 21st century spirituality is another outstanding release from one of the only bands to shed their Radiohead comparisons. Instead, Bellamy's strong falsetto and background romantic-classical pianist education continue to fuel their rock music into more passionately melodic avenues of thought, although it could be a little more evenly balanced with their less daring, straight-forward rockers, still quite on point in their own right. Rating: - Music BingeI stopped listening to music, buying albums and following the scene in the mid 90s being burnt out on what I thought was boring generic music that was being produced and marketed to a former KROQ listener like me. So that means I missed out on Radiohead (Bends, OK Computer, Kid A), Coldplay and of course Muse. Of course I heard of, not listened to, the 1st two bands I mentioned but didn't care. Until, I heard Coldplay's title track a few months ago. So I bought that song. I thought it was a great song but the album was not out yet and I felt like I needed more music. So I bought In Rainbows by Radiohead remembering the hype about their unique marketing last year. I loved it and wanted more. This was a life changing experience. ...

Goin across radiohead on the web; web gave muse as a similar like. I heard half a bar of the simple "apocalypse please" and then new this band was great-3 piece at that, since i used to play/write/study classical works in 70's of the chopin/beethoven/brahms, etc. type. Every song is good/different/original so far ive heard). Got their lp titled tour ticket rt. after/saw their kissimmee concert near here-greatshow. Of all their lps i have now, this is their best next to showbiz, origin.., & their 2006 lp which is just ok. Like all bands they have to change up for stylechange experience/newfans and $. Not to overdo it, i like this band-talented, cool, esp. ... Read More: Rating: - The best alternative albumThis is the best cd that I've purchased in a long time. Every track is great and the flow between songs can not be recreated. This is a great band and a great cd. |
