A Return To Form: Muse’s Simulation Theory Makes Music Fun Again
Let’s be super honest here – Unless you’re one of their hardcore faithful followers, Muse had yet to achieve the same level of musical spectacle & splendor as they did on Black Holes And Revelations, an album so technically-perfect that the bar permanently raised too high for them to scale over in the records since; There was no “Time Is Running Out,” no “Sing For Absolution” & certainly no “Knights Of Cydonia” that you just had to show your friends when they came over, leaving the subsequent albums feeling empty, worthy of the claims that the band was simply a clone of Radiohead – That is, until Simulation Theory dropped & the Alt Rock scene went alight in fits of glorious mania to the Electronica & Synth Pop vibes within.
