[kj] New Topic-Glastonbury-Muse

[Darren A. Peace]

Wow. "The Bends" is one of my favourite albums, and "Paranoid Android"  
one of the most astonishing singles ever recorded. I can see that  
Radiohead do little to dispel their more recent laptop nerd aura, but  
"Pablo Honey" is the only album of theirs I don't like. The moment  
when I utterly connected with them was when I saw them doing "My Iron  
Lung" at a Smash Hits party. Jaw-dropping, both for me and the entire  
audience, although not necessarily for the same reason. There's a  
chord they strike with me, predicated on melancholy, I think, to the  
extent that I've forgiven them for ripping off the "Shot By Both  
Sides" riff in "Just".

Muse are great fun, and are clearly mental, but are now veering a  
little close to Queen to be entirely comfortable for me.
