I honestly think without being biased that in time this will go down as a classic without a doubt. From start to finish it is genius, there is not one filler in this album. 'Apocalypse Please' starts the album brilliantly, it is powerful and anthem worthy. Every single song has been nurtured for greatness, 'Time is Running Out' begs you to get out and jump along to it, 'Stockholm Syndrome' when played at full volume sends shivers down your spine, 'Butterflies and Hurricanes' isn't a song, but a concerto, with piano and string arrangements. But picking out these songs is an injustice to the album because every single song is brilliant in it's own way. I'd recommend this album to anyone
This has to be the most incredible album ever released. As soon as the thunderous "Apocalypse Please" you know you will be in for a treat. As well as the released material (Including the hits Time Is Running Out and Hysteria) the unreleased sound is simply gorgeous. Songs like The Small Print make you want to go nuts whilst Blackout is the perfect song for deep thought or reflection at the end of a rough day. I've heard my fair share of bands and album but this easily tops everything else. A MUST BUY!
This is a fantastic album that showcases all of Muse's styles and powerful lyrics perfectly. 'Stockholm Syndrome' is the best track and one of my favourite songs of all time. This album also contains gems like 'Apocalypse Please, 'Time is Running Out', 'Hysteria' and 'Butterflies and Hurricanes'. All of which are fantastic. The other tracks are also well worth a listen and as an album this is perfection.
This is one of those albums that you won't be able to put down for a long time, and the great thing about it is they are British. 'Hysteria' is a fast paced track with some great guitar work from the band that make it sound amazing. But they also show their other side with the slower 'Butterflies and Hurricanes' which has some great vocals. TIt si qite rare to get one album with some many great tracks on but Muse have accomplished that. This album has a bit of something for everyone on so buy it today.
Even though this record has some of my favourite overall Muse tracks on it, it still falls short somehow. Stockholm Syndrome is almost too good. Hysteria still makes me tingly to this day. But it still misses something.
It's not as grand as Origin of Symmetry. It is trying. It's trying so hard. But it falls short. It's a bit like Die Hard 2. It's not bad, it's just trying to be too good with its plot twists and puzzles. They kept the German bad guy because they know that worked before, and they made Willis have to go rouge to get the job done. Same tricks different result.
By no means a bad album, you just can't sit it side by side with Showbiz and Origin and say it's just as good.
