I like Klaxons but they dont compare live to muse, Ive seen klaxons live a few times. not that good but they are improving.

Muse are my favourite band

the end.

i hope their next album will be more honest Wink

.

What, were they lying on their last?

not lying, but i have this feeling that previous albums were more 'true', more about their feelings, opinions....the real world. last album was like a bunch of pop songs played by great musicians. i didn't get what were lyrics of this album about. what were they trying to say. was it ironic pop? and also, they were more serious before, and after releasing Black Holes they were posing for these funny pictures for nme etc.

i couldnt agree with you more.
although i know its Dom playing the synth, it just doesn't seem real
i dont like the fact that they add so much into their recorded stuff, that they have to have a guy on stage playing those instruments for them when they are performing live,
so that their music wouldn't sound out of place.

Well, Morgan Nicholls has always helped them live. It's not only since Black Holes And Revelations. For instance Nicholls plays a big part in songs like Bliss. You know that space sound in the background.
And in BH&R I love that electronic impulse sound in Take a Bow. That is really awesome live. So not really Dom who plays the synth. It's Nicholls.

i dunno,
i have all their albums, and i just think that its just this massive change from Absolution to BH&R
the syths are more prominant etc.

Sure. They try to do something else in every album. I didn't want BH&R to sound the same as Absolution. That's why I wonder what is the next step. Smile

15 minute space rock solo? I hope they'll do it. Very Happy

I don't. Unless they manage to keep it interesting over 15 minutes. Which I doubt.

Well... You should start exploring them on youtube. They are one of the best live bands nowadays.

This is just an example:

How awesome when the guitar riff hits in.

Time Is Running Out and Starlight are both shite songs.

TIRO is but Starlight has it's merits.

Muse ftw overall though.

i recommended TIRO and *light because i personally think they are easy-to-like, especially on first listen.

i love muse generaly, origin of symetry and absolution are amazing albums.
