Muses 'Absolution' has lots of potential and grasps the goodness of sound but not all the way though. Best Songs : Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist,Stockholm Syndrome and Hysteria.

Muse's best album without a doubt. Is amazing from the beginning to the end. Definitely in my top 10 best 2000's albums.

The best Muse ever did. Some spectacular parts include Time Is Running Out and Hysteria. A masterpiece of the 00s

My favorite track: is Time Is Running Out

The attacks against Muse being rip-offs of Radiohead hold mild validity, at best, considering the similar vocal styling. However, particular tracks, such as Stockholm Syndrome, contain a distorted rocking noise that despite his talents, Johnny Greenwood never really attempts with Radiohead. It's a solid album with a wide range of instrumental talent, and any similarities which perhaps exists should simply be accepted as a necessary part of the influence of creativity.

A bit weak in places. The singles really are the parts which shine

This album was my first experience of Muse and I haven't looked back. Some say they are rip-offs of early Radiohead, but this album shows they are a band in their own right. Compared them to whoever, Absolution is a classic 2000s album.

This is album is good, but there's no way in hell it can be better than Elephant by The White Stripes...

This album is brilliant, it has a mix of rock and classical music like "Butterflies and Hurricanes" and "Blackout" and also great riffs like the ones in "Stockholm Syndrome" and "Hysteria"...I personally love this album, it's my second favorite by Muse.
