Muse: The Resistance
The Advocate
Muse’s latest album, “The Resistance,” is a great addition to the band’s already popular previous CDs. The album takes the musical talent of the trio to a whole new level; with the virtuoso sound of the synths balanced by symphonic orchestra sounds, the talent of bandleader Matthew Bellamy seems to be never-ending.

The album starts out with stomp-your-feet music that is best described by Bellamy himself as football hooligans chanting in protest at the banking situation.
The controversial single, United States of Eurasia, features both a heavily Queen–Bohemian Rhapsody inspired sound combined with Frederic Chopin’s – Nocturne in E Flat Major classical sound, which makes the line between musical genres seamlessly disappear.
The album found a lot of influence in classical music, combined with their already established sound and other glitter-rock influences. This album has something for all the fans. It does not overshadow the previous albums, but its virtuous sounds and unbelievable angry lyrics about the state of the world and the American influence on the world make this album another hit for Muse.
Rating: 4/5
