So I still gotta listen to this one a bit more before I can give my definitive opinion. I'm somewhere inbetween a 2/5 and a 3/5 right now, it was better than I expected, but that doesn't mean it's that great. Lots of copypasting of other band's styles and such. It had a couple of good songs but I need to revise it.

I just have absolutely no interest in even attempting to give this a listen, which is a shame since I was a huge Muse fanboy back around the time of Black Holes.

It's nto as electronic as it appeared to be at first, you mgiht want to try it at the very least. I don't say it's good, but you should know your enemy. When someone asks you your opinion on this and you say you hate while you haven't even listened to it, it'd seem kinda odd to me.

It's very Queen-esque, which usually is one of the most used comparisons for Muse, but there's definitely more of an emphasis on that statement with this album. I like it

I'll give this a listen at some point but I'm with RVCA. I used to love Muse around the time of Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry but I just can't find the time. It feels almost like a chore to feel motivated to listen to a new Muse record.

It's actually really good, mate. I was pleasantly surprised. PLEASANTLY surprised.

I was massively underwhelmed by this record to tell the truth. I was actually one of the few who enjoyed Resistance when it came out and I was really looking forward to another release, but "Madness" and that U2-Muse clash "Big Freeze" have really disappointed me. Then again, I still have some hope in them thanks to that heavenly Bond-themed "Supremacy"...

I couldn't even get through The Resistance, I don't think I'll be listening to this. I don't even like the older albums much at this point.
