KW - I noticed that. They aren't that similar tho. There have been a couple of Muse tracks that are a bit Radiohead-esque (notably "Unintended" that EVERYONE thought was Radiohead!!!! Cept me, I bought it on ltd edition CD single
) but other than that, not many are particulary similar. I think Thom York and Matt Bellamy are similar minds in terms of songwriting and structure tho, so comparrisons may arise from that..... Both are songwriting genious's in my book tho
Thrush - Unintended was amazing, I just wish Muse was more openly available back then, Creep seems to come up under Muse if on limewire which I thought was ironic.
It just annoys me cos I am a huge Muse fan (and come from Exeter which isnt far away from Teignmouth) and when people say "oh Muse?? their shit" its like do you really know what they did? they arent manufactured and they arent one hit wonders like the arctic monkeys so far have been, and dont get me wrong their song was great. Saw Muse in Cardiff about 3 weeks back and they played some Origin of Symmetry and loads off Absolution and Blackholes, but no Showbiz which is a shame cos Sunburn is great as is Muscle Museum, not to mention Showbiz itself.

OASIS are shit, simple. I was heavilly into them during definetely maybe through to be here now the thrid album and kept buying the albums all the way until now PRAYING they would come good again, but seriously its poor. I have all the albums, what have they done in the last 4 years? Fuck all!
Live they're ok but barely make the effort. Look At glastonbury 2004 compared to 2005 when Muse played. Totally diferent show and response.
I'm a guitarist and IMO Matt belamy Smokes Noel on guitar and is far better vocally than Liam and Noel! Belamy is doing something different, his own thing and while Noel has done some great material in the past its dried up now.
As for the RADIOHEAD comparrison, god its such a bore. The reason these bands get compared is only vocally. Tom and Matt can sound similar but then they are BOTH influenced by Jeff Buckley, Matt used to go see him at reading festival so did Tom Yorke.
Apart from that the bands couldn't be any more different, Besides like OASIS, Radiohead are past it. Kid A? WHAT A JOKE.

Think that shows what a load of rubbish people were talking when doubting Muse, SOLD OUT 3 hours after tickets going live at the Wembly gig, so much that they have made another open booking for the night after so JJC

I think Buckley suffers a bit from Jim Morrison syndrome, IE, he died in his prime therefore he must of been a genius, he did some awesome songs, quite a few of them were covers though, I must admit though that Grace is still one of my most listened to albums
Oasis pull big crowds because people in their
late 20's early 30's want to go and sing along to Live forever/supersonic/champagne super nova/wonderwall etc etc, which is great and I have no problem with that, but I bet there arent many Oasis fans that got into them on current material, which is whats needed for a modern, current stadium opening, you dont want nostalgia on a night like that, fuck, the crowd will be knocking the place down and trying to errect the wembly towers in a teary eyed memory of the past
Thrush, Good fucking call mate with the War Of The Worlds
never thought of that, only downside to that would be its not that current or have anything to do with the new wembley, I'd still love to see it though Perhaps a good idea would be for someone to try and form a super group from todays cream of musicians/songwriters for a one off gig, Jack White, Dave Grohl, Thom Yorke, Johhny Borrell and maybe throw in a few OAP's like Townshend, Gilmour, Richards, Mcartney, Weller, slash etc etc, now THAT would be a night to remember, bit like Live 8 only good

I got 3 tickets but for the second night
right lads lets put this to bed now cos this is all gettin a bit silly, if i think a band is shit there fuckin shit,im not gonna change my view on this and i couldnt give a flying fuck what you cunts say as to me your opinion means fuck all as i have no interest now in what your saying. i started off posting on this post as I dont think muse were or ever will be a good choice to headline wembley on its very first gig, that my opinion!!! but all you keyboard warriors see the need to tell me how great this band are, that your opinion, you disagree with my opinions and i disagree with yours
as ive said in the previous how many posts on this thread, i hope it is a good gig for whoever goes and they blow you away, but i wont be taking no interest in it whatsoever.
so instead of writing another essay trying to make me look a cunt just save your fingers, its the fuckin internet and no one gives a fuck to be honest. i certainly dont give a fuck if you think my taste in music is shit and i certainly couldnt give a fuck what you lot listen too.

Never tried to make you look a C**t and if it came across like that then I do apologise, all my point was, like them or not they aint shit cos to much says to the contrary and I dont see why they dont deserve to be the first. there must be good reason as to why they were picked. Like I said I apologise if it seemed that I was getting at you as that was not my intention
never seen radiohead live but like I said earlier its funny how the critics often compare them yet not many people like both, lol.

in all honesty thinking properly about it i think the first gig at wembley should have been like a festival of music. bit like the noise and confusion gig that was held at millenium stadium a few years back. and this isnt another dig at muse. i just think a showcase of british music, new and old would have been a spectacular opening of what will be a great venue.
yeh there album is spot on, one of the best of the year tbh, although i think there music appeals to girls rather than blokes. another good support act would be the view.

JJC - no one tried to make you come across like a cunt - no-one needed to as you did a great job on your own 
I have said, it has nothing to do with whether you like them or not, and I ain't trying to convince you they are a great band - my argument was that just cos YOU say they are shite, doesn't mean they ARE shit does it? If I say Oasis are shit, does that mean they are shit? Of course not, it just means I THINK they are shit - end of. As I said, you cannot choose what is fact and what isn't, you are only entitled to an opinion on what you like and what you don't, but opinion doesn't equal fact, end of.
Kooks? Zutons? Baby Shambles? shit, shit and shit. Plus: 1) The Kooks would never fill Wembly Stadium, 2) Zutons aren't high profile enough, and 3) Baby Shambles don't deserve a slot in the local Dog n Duck, let alone a headline slot at Wembley FFS
Pete Doherty is a disgrace to music, and if he topped himself it would actually better the gene pool 
And in regards to "its the fuckin internet and no one gives a fuck to be honest. i certainly dont give a fuck if you think my taste in music is shit and i certainly couldnt give a fuck what you lot listen too" - judging by the tone that your writing has taken, I would say you DO give a fuck as otherwise you would portray yourself in type as getting annoyed and bothered about it

now i do agree with u about pete doherty but musically he is talented, but as a person hes a grade a cockend. but babyshambles are the new breed of musicians that you are on about being played in wembley instead of the elder statesmen.
now if you wanna quote every word of whats just been said like you have been doing then go ahead be my guest but remember to read whats been said before you type your replies

behave mate it was said how it was said, no point spittin our dummies out over whats written on here, ive seen other posts on this site that have gone silly and just wanted to point out what we are actually doing, chattin on an forum.
you have your view i have mine, bit of banter bla bla bla job done, if i saw u on the street id shake your hand as its been a laugh having this "debate". it was in no way delivered that i may have the hump about whats said.
everyones got different tastes in music which is great, but not everyone is gonna agree with everyones taste. in my world muse are shit, in your world there good. if everyone had the same taste it would be boring.
