Future Waits - RC2

Advantages: it's muse... of course it's good!
Disadvantages: none... the perfect album

...I first saw Muse supporting one of my other favourite bands, Rialto, in '98. Since then I've bought every single they've released, and I had a long wait before their debut album, Showbiz, was finally released. But it was well worth that wait. In my opinion, every song on the album is excellent - none of those weak songs you get on lots of albums that you just skip over. They range from the louder, faster songs like Cave and Uno, to the slower, and just generally loooovely Unintended and Falling Down.

Can't wait for the next album!... Read review

'Driftwood' was recommended on one of the radio shows I listen to quite frequently, and ever since I heard that song I have thought abourt buying the album, and when my friend recommended it aswell I knew I was on to a winner! I can't wait 'til the next album, and I hope to catch Travis on tour sometime in the near future.... Read review
