Genre of Muse.

[Bewilders]

What genre would you class Muse as?

Multiple answer poll.

[Matthijs]

if there was a poll saying Progressive Rock Music i'd vote that

[Britrock]

Is "good" music a genre?

[Go2schoolNAKED!]

I know this cat that once referred to Muse as 'emo'

I mentioned them, his response "Eww Muse! I don't listen to emo!" :LOL: :stunned:

[Lick My Face]

My 'other' vote is for Space Rock...I remember it being classed as that somewhere once, and it's stuck ever since.

[Beast Love]

The correct genre is "Space Age Opera Rock", I do believe.


:stunned:

[Britrock]

Hah, would you look at that. I'm a genre of music. Amazing.

:D

[Jase]

:stunned:

I like it.

[Go2schoolNAKED!]

Hah, would you look at that. I'm a genre of music. Amazing.

:D
:LOL: indeed it is.

*observes poll results and randomly adds in*

Perhaps my lone vote on "indie" has something to do with the fact that I'm american? Guess our genre definitions differ over here, lol.

[Ktk]

Hmmm. I think if I was to group their albums, I'd put Showbiz in a different genre.

But overall I'd say they're Rock. Or Britrock.

I'm going to give it more thought.

[Psychoticmonkey]

I know this cat that once referred to Muse as 'emo'

My cat says they're "meow" - maybe you misheard?

[Strawberry_Juice]

Eh, I'd just kinda put them as alternative rock or experimental rock. :erm:

[Go2schoolNAKED!]

My cat says they're "meow" - maybe you misheard?
:LOL: :LOL:

[Superfuzz_Bigmuff]

I didn't see shit there.

[SacredSilence]

I didn't see shit there.

No. It's mad. :LOL: :LOL:

[Humphrey Goldenbollocks]

I don't think Muse have a specific genre, just because they incorperate many different styles. I guess Britrock is where they'll best fit, because it doesn't really mean anything.

[Sophie.]

I generally refer to them as Prog rock, as I see them similar in ways to bands like Pink Floyd and the Mars Volta. Failing that, I just call them rock.

[Jacky Boy]

Apocalyptic Phycadelic Space Rock

[Imperium]

the nearest thing in that list is 'rock' but theyre not even that alot of the time

[christoph]

I remember someone quoting them as Ba-rock.

[Britrock]

It does - it means they're British, and they rock...

[Bewilders]

I guess the genre of Muse has been changing alot over these years.
Showbiz - Britrock/Grunge?
O.O.S - Progressive/Rock.
Absolution - Pop/Experimental.

[Matthijs]

how about Virgin Bait Rock?

[Firebaptist]

Audacious, ambitious, heavy neo-classical metalcorepunk hyperspace-rock :D

[cupcakes'n'brie]

Hyper Chondriac Music?

[siblers]

I dont think its progressive, their songs are way too structured for it to be that.

[Gemsy]

They're just ROCK.

[Gemsy]

[lost153]

u cant fit muse into genre each song is uniqueeeee

[sick-b-cuz-i-adore-u]

The correct genre is "Space Age Opera Rock", I do believe.


:stunned:

Wow. This genre title is so ridiculous that it has to be amazing! It gets my vote, anyway!

[naget4music]

:stunned:



:'(



what you talking about... Queen are phenominal.!!!!...By the way all members love queen... Muse totally remind me of Queen. but Still there really is no genre to define 'MUSE' thats why I love them...there is no other like such!!:musesign::musesign::musesign:

[*OoS*]

I liked one I saw ages ago on a French fan site...

"Space Opera Rock" :D

But the most accurate to me would be 'Alternative Rock' :happy:

[Black Absolution]

experimental

every album has something different, it's not completely the same. they like to experiement a lot.

[dead-duck]

i think Muse is perfect for anyone who likes a bit of r&b.....

Sorry, but :LOL:.

Experimental music is usually electronic-based.

Muse is nowhere near.

...

It really depends on the song. For example, songs like Starlight are simple pop music, other songs such as Hyper Music and Assassin are heavier rock with metal influences.

Am I right in thinking some of Muse's earlier heavy songs, such as Agitated and Ashamed, are psychedelic rock?

[Black Absolution]

Sorry, but :LOL:.

Experimental music is usually electronic-based.

Muse is nowhere near.

um... who said exactly?

you know what? i'm not even going to argue.

[punkrockerjazzie]

Alternative Rock :happy:

[Time isn't Running Out]

How has grunge got the least votes? Surely Muse have heavy grunge influences (Nirvana and early Radiohead)?

[bellamy'szetagirl]

Rock. With classical, pop and punk influences. Really they are in a genre all their own, being very hard to classify as a single thing.
Once someone told me that all their songs sound alike. No, really. :stunned: (He was watching the Absolution DVD at the time)

[blackhole2super]

I wud say rock though Muse have different varieties in there music. Thats why i like muse so much. They dont release same old stuff unlike many bands around now.
