Muse are a phenomenon I don't really get. I find their music bloated, pretentious, mannered und curiously devoid of life or grit. That is possibly horrendously unfair, but I have a couple of their CDs, old und new, sometimes dig them out to perhaps find something I overheard, but their music leaves me cold everytime. And the vocals sound "wailing" to me.
I'm not knocking them as musicians, they obviously have a concept and perform their stuff well. Horses for courses.
