I'm not so sure. Except for The Resistance I don't feel like Muse's later work has managed to pull me in just as much.Rulez wrote:One would have to be pretty silly to think of Showbiz as their best.Keane wrote:I thought it was the best record for a while but now I'd place it as my third.

I'm not sure why everyone likes Absolution so much. I consider it their weaker work. The lyrics are pretty damn cheesy and sound wise, well, I'm 50/50 on it. I love the space rock sound from Sing for Absolution or the symphonic sound from Butterflies & Hurricanes but then there's also things like Falling Away With You which sounds kinda generic or Apocalypse Please which has the most standard over-the-top vibe that a song about the topic could have. I'll praise it for being more diverse then the records that came before it but it doesn't really touch me. There's a lack of emotion that I can find in OoS. The concept of a "apocalypse" or "world run by evil" has potential but Absolution explores it about as much as a disaster movie about the world coming to an end. I don't feel like they were expressing themselves on this album. That they were genuinely caring about the subjects they mention. Instead it was much more forming a "We're totally badass" reputation in media.Rulez wrote:I feel their best might be OoS or Absolution.Keane wrote:I'm not so sure.
