overall, while this is not their best album, i believe this album contains some of Muse's best work. the symphonic elements are mixed in flawlessly. Bellamy displays beautiful range, while Wolstenholme's slap bass and backing vocals tie the sound together very nicely. you can definitely hear some Queen influence in there as well, especially in "United States of Eurasia" The three part symphony at the end is absolutley brilliant.

bottom line: this album will please Muse fans, but still doesn't beat the experimentation and awesome riffing in Origin of Symmetry. to me, this is there second best album, behind OoS.

It's a bot!?

Do I win a prize?

[Gunsmith]

, this one joined before the new anti bot questions were installed.

Since it's about Muse, one of my favourite bands, I'll leave it

I'll still kill the bot though.

Foxhole gets a prize! You get to play Borderlands with me while I collect panties and claptrap statues!

[Foxhole]

That sounds like such a great prize that I'll pass it on to Apathy Wind.

[Apathy Wind]

I've collected enough pizza, panties, fish, bobbleheads, and oil cans for one life time, thank you

several life times actually

[Foxhole]

What if there were fishcans involved? Would you change your mind?

[Apathy Wind]

OH MY GOD YES!!

And if they were wearing panties all the better

[Foxhole]

I'll throw in some fishcans on pizza with a box of panties on the side.

Now Wind, go forth and claim thy prize.

[Apathy Wind]

I said wearing panties, not on the side - so no deal

this is the worst restaurant I've ever been to......

[Foxhole]

Should have checked the Zagat guide.

I realized how annoying Undisclosed Desires got. Seriously it was like when you were a kid and loved eating fish sticks, then you grew up and you cant stand them at all..
