Where would we be right now without him? Opinion. Muse: Simulation Theory review – bring back the alien overlords, please ... After all, he’s spent much of Muse’s career warning us about technological conspiracies to take over the world. This is how they end up with songs like "Mercy" and "Revolt"—wherein lead singer Matt Bellamy commands tens of thousands to shout down the brainwash tactics of diabolical plutocrats while wearing Bad Boy circa-'98 shiny suits that should warrant a name change to Mu$e.

And then there's "Exogenesis", the aforementioned "Symphony" in three parts. Pitchfork is the most trusted voice in music. (But to be more precise, times 34 :3). This review would mean more if it wasn't based on nonsense. I stopped taking Pitchfork seriously after they gave Black Holes a 4.2/10 lol. Only then does The Resistance shift into the sort of fist-pumping, kitchen-sink prog you were probably expecting. Lyrics like, "Don’t leave me out to die/ I gave you everything" led many to assume opener "Dead Inside" was about Bellamy’s ex-fiancée Kate Hudson, when it’s actually the protagonist’s blue-pill indoctrination into an army of murderbots.

Seeing the score of 6/10 (the highest apart from Showbiz, too bad they didn't review OoS and Absolution) made me hopeful, but all he does is slam Muse: for using 80s themes - granted, a lot of people do it these days, but not everyone pulls it off, by comparing them to Radiohead - this went out of fashion in 2001 already, by being unnecessarily snarky: "The fluorescent howler “The Dark Side” could’ve easily been called “The Upside Down,” so credit Muse for showing some restraint.

The last time Lange and Mahurin collaborated on the same record, Def Leppard was asking us to stand up and kick love into motion. Muse have never been interested in doing things by halves and they don't so much as lean into prog these days but rather wear the face off it, yet there is a difference between bold experimentation and simply throwing in too much and sounding terribly burnt out as a consequence. But if taping his head onto a Miku and committing to daily Tea-Time and nightly Sleepy-Time with my Yorke-san brings me any closer to the man, nay, the ANOMALY that is he, then by goodness I will do so times a million! Your picks for the year's Top Albums, Top Tracks, Most Underrated/Overrated Albums, Best Videos, Most Disappointing Albums, Best Album Covers, Best Live Acts, Best New Artists, and more. Muse records are largely blockbuster action flicks centered around a cryptocratic nightmare that can be explained on a billboard. Muse are back, with an LP of all-caps, no half-stepping ART-ROCK that closes with a three-part epic so shameless about its size it's billed as a "Symphony." Humbug, Arctic Monkeys (8.0/7.2) 9. I like some of it a lot, but Matt you do know that just because you say "drones" a lot doesn't make the album cohesive, don't you?
