I only discovered Muse about a month or so ago, but they've become already my favorite band (perhaps ever).
I love Michael Bellamy's vocals... it might take a while to get used to (some of the lyrics are difficult to make out), but you realize just how good they are over time.
Among their top songs, in my opinion: Time Is Running Out (Album: Absolution), Starlight, Exo-Politics, City of Delusion (Album: Black Holes and Revelations), Bliss, Plug In Baby (Origin of Symmetry).
Of course, there's so much more I could say about this band. But for now, I'll just ask - who else listens to Muse, and how do you like them? :P

I listen the Muse myself. Not a band I'll listen daily though.
Thinking of it, the only songs I know from them are Starlight and Knights of Cydonia.

Muse are pretty awesome, I also love the vocalist, probably the best part of the band.
imo, Absolution is their best album. The best songs being Butterflys And Hurricanes, Apocalypse Please, City of Delusion, and Muscle Museum :P. I doubt my opinion is shared among most others lol.
Also, I can't stand Starlight...

Yeah, Starlight is definitely one of their more mainstream songs, but it's done fairly well.
I'd say to get the best "feel" for Muse, start off with "Time Is Running Out" off of Absolution (which I agree is their best album).

I sorta like Starlight, more the piano than the vocals. I might check some of their other stuff out if I have time/money.

Oh I cannot stand Muse. It pains my ears to listen to them. Then again, it pains my ears to listen to most Indie rock. With the exception of Mr. Brightside- The Killers. Muse and The Zutons are probably my all time hated bands.
