Yeah, this new album rocks. Definitely their best work yet and the best album I've heard all year. I was gonna start a new thread, but found this one buried.
Sure, they've been accused of being Radiohead clones, but so has every other good band from England. And if you're gonna be compared to any band, Radiohead is a good band to be compared to.
I like the direction Muse is moving in. The songs are innovative but still very accessible (unlike some of Radiohead's latest work). Matt Bellamy's voice is amazing and his lyrics are very meaningful and more politically charged than before.
My favorite songs are Stockholm Syndrome, TSP, Butterflies and Hurricanes, and Thoughts of a Dying Atheist.
If you like Radiohead or just good intelligent rock music in general, you should definitely check out this album.
