The first single sound like a Michael Jackson song. Good god. Anyways, not bad overall. My only beef is that it doesn't feel like there was a great deal of progress from their last album. Feels like polished versions of the same old same old.

The guitar? Sure it's got the same epic ballad type of thing going on, but no flamenco. The guitar is somewhat Spanish there, but it's no driving chordal thing.

It's actually much more Prince-esque.

And Michael Jackson made some of the best music ever.

I laugh at whoever would be afraid of innerdark.

I want this soooooo badly. Ever since I heard a 10-second clip of "Knights of Cydonia" I really get the Queen comparison Damrod has made.

That song reminds me of Queen more than any of their other stuff.



I listened to the vocal section at 3:18 for the first time and was like "whoa I thought this dude was dead".

That song is really awesome.

Anybody who thinks Bellamy doesn't sound like Thom Yorke still is retarded.
Yorke>Bellamy, but I agree.

I think the only worthy tracks off this album are SBH and Map of the Problematique. This is a very dull album, easily Muse's worst.This Message Edited On 07.13.06

After a few more listens I find this just alright. Invincible's lyrics are so terrible that I can't even listen to it.
