It's still a great album and a very Muse one at that
#Muse
muted gull
Resistance is the most consistant in terms of theme
steady quail
WOTP definitely sounds like a mix of songs ranging from pretty cringe to genuinely good that all could be from completely different bands
Because how the fuck are title track, liberation, won’t stand down, and Halloween all the same band
And the same album at that
silent girder
Resistance is the most consistant in terms of theme
Musically, its not. Theme wise yeah i agree
muted gull
The biggest alt rock band of the 2000s deserves it's thread

MUSE
muted gull
They debuted the galery live a week ago, i love when bands play deep cuts live
@simple ember
unique shoal
The biggest?
muted gull
The biggest?
I mean, i couldn't name a bigger 2000s rock band
unique shoal
Muse had like one radio hit
unique shoal
I literally can only think of one popular song of theirs
muted gull
They had like 2 hits per album
unique shoal
I can only think of the one that's in Warriors of Rock
And I can't remember the name
muted gull
Origin of symmetry: feeling good(elected best cover of all time)/plug in baby
Absolution: hysteria/time is running out
Black holes and revelations: starlight/supermassive black hole
Resistance: undisclosed desires/uprising
2nd law: supremacy/madness
Drones:dead inside
muted gull
I can only think of the one that's in Warriors of Rock
I think it's uprising
But yeah, muse was massive in the late 2000s
unique shoal
I don't remember them being massive
muted gull
I don't remember them being massive
They always were bigger in europe than in the us tbh
There was a time when you couldn't turn on the radio without hearing a muse song
Around 2008 and 2012
unique shoal
I just looked up sales between GD and Muse for their 2000s albums
Muse: 15 million units worldwide
Green Day: 23.5 million units worldwide
Green Day is bigger
muted gull
How about ticket sales?
unique shoal
Idk I didn't look
Mind you Muse has like 4 or 5 2000s albums and GD has 3, and one was warning which sold poorly
muted gull
Muse has 4
muted gull
Yeah so AI and nothing
unique shoal
What
unique shoal
The Resistance sold 5 million
Black Holes and Revelations sold 4.5
Absolution sold 3.5
And Origins of Symmetry sold 2 million
GD has one less album and their lowest selling one of that time sold the same as or more than 2 Muse albums of the same period
muted gull
Holy shit, drones barely sold
unique shoal
21stCB sold more than 3 Muse albums of this time
muted gull
500k
With 200k being in france alone
unique shoal
Are we looking at total sales?
unique shoal
Damn
muted gull
People did not like muse metal
unique shoal
What website are you using
muted gull
The thread name
unique shoal
That's still a bold claim
muted gull
I actualy can't think of any big 2000s alt rock bands
muted gull
Because i don't count pop punk/punk rock as alt rock
unique shoal
Sure
muted gull
White stripes only ever had 7 nation army that got popular
Mcr never realy took off over here so i can't say tbh
At least nowhere near as much as gd/muse/radiohead etc.
unique shoal
Also remember we're in two seperate counties
unique shoal
AI is most certainly going to sell more in America than France
muted gull
Muse was fucking massive in france
AI sold a lot here too
Which one had boulevard of broken dreams already?
unique shoal
I wasn't aware of Muse until uprising and I haven't heard much from them since here
unique shoal
Which one had boulevard of broken dreams already?
AI
AI at Blvd, Holiday, AI and Wake Me Uo When September ends
All massive hits
muted gull
Yeah, boulevard of broken dreams and holidat played a bunch here
AI way less
And wake me up when september ends rarely ever played
unique shoal
Jesus of Suburbia was a single too but not as big
muted gull
Too long for radio
unique shoal
Yea
muted gull
9m for the short version lol
unique shoal
It's still their Magnus Opus
unique shoal
21stCB had several singles but I only remember 21 Guns doing well
unique shoal
By 2009 punk was on it's way out of the mainstream
muted gull
Guitar driven music as a whole was
Reminds me, a lot of shows/news stations use muse instrumentals as background music and i love that
unique shoal
I don't think I can think of an example myself here
light dune
I actualy can't think of any big 2000s alt rock bands
Linkin park?
muted gull
They're nu metal
light dune
Eh
unique shoal
Nu Metal is alt rock
light dune
Yea atleast there first 2 is
unique shoal
Alt is an umbrella genre
light dune
Minutes to midnight is 100% alt rock tho
muted gull
Nu metal also means nothing and everything
Because ratm and slipknot are both nu metal
muted gull
Minutes to midnight is 100% alt rock tho
Oh yeah, definitely
MTM only has one truly memorable song though
Shadow of the day
Given up and leave out all the rest are cool but i wouldn't say they're memorable
unique shoal
No?
muted gull
If i say space rock, that's not even arguable though, nobody made space rock in the 2000s
unique shoal
What I've Done? Bleed It Out?
muted gull
Never got on radio here
unique shoal
Pretty sure those were radio hits here
muted gull
What i've done is one of my least favourite linkin park songs tbh
unique shoal
And again the only radio hits Muse had was uprising
muted gull
We only get the softer stuff here
on radio
Well, nevermind, supremacy got on the radio when the 2nd law came out and it has some drop A chugs
unique shoal
Maybe rock radio stations
I'm talking top 40 stations
I only remember uprising being played on top 40 stations
Anything rock is fair game on rock radio
muted gull
Yeah we have pseudo rock radios
We have a pop/rock/electro radio
Which means POP!/pop with guitar/pop with synth
light dune
Because ratm and slipknot are both nu metal
Never get why ratm is considered nu metal ngl
muted gull
because it's metal instrumentals with rapped lyrics
light dune
Yea but I would consider that rap rock/rap metal which is different from nu metal
muted gull
Yea but I would consider that rap rock/rap metal which is different from nu meta...
they were pioneers of nu metal
and nu metal is basicaly metal with elements from other genres

@long sonnet MUSE

Muse had like one radio hit
in the uk muse is absolutely massive, even bigger back in the 2000s

holy shit those tones
yeah, spot on
simple ember
I wonder how they did do those
also I heard a matt bellamy vox background I think, neat
if it was layered a bit more it'd be less 'live' feeling
that dude nailed that vocal line aH MY GOD
kicking in the synths was brilliant
that is a solid cover, that bass just ugh

Yesterday they played a new song "Kill or be killed" for the first time in the Rock am Ring concert
