Hi My name's Josh and I think the metal scene can go get fucked

[Goreripper]

Yeah, "Dummy" is the biz-natch.

Well, not rock exactly. Whatever it is... ambient trip hop or something...

 

[phlogiston]

I like Glory Box of that album. \m/

 

[KoichCPA]

Everyone loves glory box.

 

[KoichCPA]

This thread was sposed to be about how awesome Muse are.

Now talk about muse

 

[phlogiston]

Hang on, I need some Muse songs then. I'll be back in a bit.

 

[KoichCPA]

Get anything from the absolution album

 

[TinMan666]

I played on a song called Muse with a band called Xistance.

That was a good song.

 

[phlogiston]

They seem OK for a sorta alt-rock outfit. I need to listen to the songs a bit more, I think they'll grow on me. Portishead are better though.

 

[KoichCPA]

Make sure you get sing for absolution and apocolypse please

 

[phlogiston]

I got Sing For Absolution after I posted that. Sing For Absolution nearly pushes it over the line on just one listen. It's quite acceptable. Quite acceptable indeed.

 

[KoichCPA]

Good

now get Keane- She has no time.

 

[The Amazer]

I have Absolution, great album

Highlights:
Stockholm Syndrome - Still their best song
Falling Away from Me
Butterflies and Hurricanes
Blackout

 

[KoichCPA]

My current favourite is Thoughts of a dying athiest

It's like a perfect cross between Jeff Buckley and Powderfinger

 

[Spruce Goose]

I don't like Keane. I think they are pretty boring.

There is a song on the radio at the moment that I love. Called Rough Diamonds by an Aussie band END OF FASHION. Now that is some awesome fuckin pop. Sounds a bit like Hey Jude, especially the bridge section. I love it. Download it if you havnt heard.

 

[KoichCPA]

Yeah, End of Fasion are pretty decent.

 

[Spruce Goose]

I also really like Thirsty Mercs new single My Completeness. Has very nice vocal melodies throughout. Nice hooks in the vocal lines too, especially the "With her hair... Flowing down in blue cascades" part. Sounds cool

 

[KoichCPA]

That, I have not heard.

 

[Spruce Goose]

Download it. Its the one with the vocal harmony section at the start. Much, much better than their first single Emancipate Myself, which I was not crazy about. But My Completeness more than makes up for that.

 

[Spiff]

Urgh, I hated Emancipate Myself, all because of that intro. The chorus rules, but the whole speaking bit and whatever riff they use at the beginning of the song ruins it for me and makes me want to harm small animals.

 

[Wrathchild]

Spiffo, harm people rather than small animals if you don't mind. People deserve it.

I'd also like to add that I've listened to metal for aeons without considering myself part of any scene. That way I can enjoy all sorts of other music without feeling like a traitor .
