Why Muse is the greatest of this Century so far

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnTLoH46VrI

Watch this completely, then tell me otherwise. Nothing comes close to this epicness, period.

They are a great band to see live, but they really haven't been the same since Black Holes. They aren't the greatest of our time, that's for damn sure.

no not greatest of the century or the decade. while sounding good live(which most bands do these days)it's still meh.

but to each their own

Good live band, but not my favorite.

I dont know, show me another band which has as much diversity, is even comparable to Muse' musical talent, live performance, etc.

It's hard to find one. I'm talking bands of our time. Heres another prime example why Muse just demolishes everything else thats out right now:

People to tend to claim todays music sucks, but you have one of the greatest bands of all time right in front of you. DONT MISS OUT !

Good band live sure, but I'm not the biggest fan of their music

I'd rather see something like this or this live instead. More raw energy and musical skill.

MFW this topic

Greatest of this century is faint praise.

Greatest of this century is a bit of a backhanded compliment.

The quality of Muse has dropped off recently, so by that alone, they aren't rhe greatest. Consistent quality is best.

I would say that Jack White's contributions to modern rock has been a step above Muse. Between his solo performances, his bands, and his producing, I would consider him to be greater than Muse so far.

I love Muse don't get me wrong. But like you I once completely overrated them.

Best drummer of the past 25 years:

Carter Beauford

Best drummer ever was Pete Best, he got kicked out of a band for the women liking him too much.

No, dont get me wrong. White Stripes like you mentioned earlier are one of my favourite bands and they definetly provide a kind of unique rock experience but i just fail to see what they have done to push the genre rock forward. They haven't composed a single song thats in the same league as something like this for example. (creativity, complexity, etc.)

That's why I didn't say just the White Stripes, but Jack White as a musician. His music is some of the most creative I've ever heard, and considering rock is a very stale genre at this point, I would consider that a feat.

As for progressive rock, Muse is outclassed by Rush in that genre. Before you say Rush is old, they have put out 2 albums since 2000, both are fantastic despite their age.

The Muse show I saw was amazing, but I saw Rush two years ealier. The influence that Rush has had on Muse is quite profound.

As for best drummers Neil Peart is still up there with the best. Even in their new albums the drumming adds a whole layer of complexity that very few other bands can match. Being able to thump double bass really fast isn't nearly the same as holding together extremely complex drum beats and rhythms throughout an entire song that add a layer of depth and complexity to the sound.

TC I think you should give Ne Obliviscaris a listen, much more diverse and technical than Muse.

Jordison is a talented drummer, but there are a lot of drummers who aren't as widely recognized as Jordison who are arguebly more talented then him. Check out Kevin Talley, Marco Minnemann, and Jamie Saint Merat

How did he win worlds fastest metal drummer when Mike Manjini holds the world record for most bpm at just over 1200? He's also been recorded just hitting the snare for 10 seconds at which point he got over 200 hits. Yeah, good luck Joey, you're not that fast. And I'm not even taking into account all of the death and black metal drummers.

Iceozo

kinda ironic isnt it?

but if some death metal people just blast beat and if you say joey just blast beats how would one be better than the other? mind you im biased on the fact i cant stand most death metal

[QUOTE="Iceozo"]

[QUOTE="almasdeathchild"]don't most if not all death metal drummers blast beat and smash the snare and symbol most of the time?

[QUOTE="Iceozo"]

Not really, some do, some don't, but does that matter? They still play better than Joey. I also like how you completely ignored the part where I mentioned Mike Manjini, he's a prog drummer btw, so he doesn't just "bash the snare" as you so eloquently put it.

I would just like to point out that Muse hasn't been good since Black Holes and Revelations.

They are good. Over time I started to like them more.

Red Hot Chili Peppers is better.NiKva

RHCP haven't done anything good this century.

No.

I like Muse, but they are SO overrated.
