After debuting at No. 1 last week, Muse’s album Absolution falls to No. 2 with 282,000, a sales slide of 88%. It has been six years Muse’ last studio CD, “Absolution” which won Array MTV Music Awards and was nominated for album of the year. Self-described as Pop: Pop-Rock with lots of words, Muse comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. Smart music for smart people.
Opening track Apocalypse Please shows the best of Muse. Still going through Absolution and coming to appreciate Time Is Running Out more and more with every listen. Sing For Absolution is a striking and quite long song. Stockholm Syndrome hits the heart. The song Falling Away With You ending is my favorite… so catchy! Interlude the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. Hysteria is a song that definitely grows on you and becomes an album favorite. This song is like perfectly aged vintage bordeaux wine not a tequila shot. This song is very powerful, its catchy melody will have you singing along in no time. Tsp is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. Muse has astounded me with this amazing track. Awesome song is really all that you can say about it. Ruled By Secrecy is a song to savor, to listen to from every angle.
