I don't like that Olympics song at all but I'll definitely give this album a shot.

Haha, they were serious about the dubstep. Not sure how I feel about that.
I'll try to take the music for what it is, although I'm not a fan of their more recent material.

This band is horrible

Bummer... I was hoping for a return to form.

Hopefully everyone will shut up with saying they made a dubstep album now.

This is going to be polarizing.

You're going to have a fun time in this thread.

I love that their approach to dubstep includes actually playing it with instruments. Nothing wrong with programming those types of beats, but it must be a challenge to get that to sound authentic live.

Does it even matter what it sounds like on the record? It's Muse...it will slay live.

THIS. So much this. Muse live is like listening to a beautiful earthquake.

Such talented guys - I am beyond stoked for this, even though I'm lukewarm about "Survival."

That track for the Olympics is very Queen-esque.

Haven't checked out anything from this album except for the trailer, so I'm kind of reassured to hear that it won't be dubstep except for that song. Not really upset with them broadening their horizons musically, I think they know what they're doing enough that they can pull it off. Even if they don't, I've gotten enough music from Muse that I can handle a bad album lol
