Muse 'Hit' By Thunderstorm

Muse were forced to cancel a scheduled festival show on Sunday evening, after adverse weather conditions, reports Y! Music.

The group were due to play to 40,000 fans at the Hurricane Festival in Scheesel, Germany last night, but cancelled after the site was hit by a thunderstorm.

Meanwhile, Muse frontman Matt Bellamy has revealed the group are considering following their prog influences to a natural conclusion, by recording a concept LP in the vein of Pink Floyd.

Bellamy explained: "I'm sure one day we're going to do a 'Dark Side Of The Moon' album. I think we're going to go the whole nine yards and become a full prog-rock band with the 15 minute piano solo.

"I think we need to get that out of our system," he told a UK tabloid.

Muse release their new album, "Black Holes And Other Revelations", next Monday, July 3.

they are the only band that could use the phrase "concept album" and make me look forward to it.

They practically already did it with Absolution, but yeah I can't wait. Oh BHAR's on Muse's myspace, it kicks ass, but you'd have to let some songs grow on you i.e Starlight.

^^ starlight is my faverite song off the whole album! It kicks so much ass!!

15 MINUTE PIANO SOLO?that would be a bit rubbish, black holes and revelations sounds excellent i dont think any of the songs are as good as 'time is running out' but ah well.

I was on that festival, and it ruled. But I realy wanted to see Muse, so that was bad.

[SuperBlob]

Ach, noo! Not Pink Floyd-esque! D:

[BlenderChild]

i think matt was half joking about the 15 minute piano solo comment. though if anyone could get me excited about a piano solo that long, it would be him.

TIRO's probably their worst song. Check out their album Origin Of Symmetry, and Showbiz.

Ooh deary me :/

Anyway, it's good to have Muse back again, will probably catch them on tour this year.

[divwilson50]

wouldnt say TIRO is rubbish...but. Origin is by far there best album :] even though the rest are fecking amazing yes. if anyone will do the prog rock album will be Muse defooo

[DSOTM]

15 minute piano solo???

I don't think you can get more prog rock than that. Hmmm kindof reminds me of Rick Wakeman and coz Rick and Matt both r0x0rz the b0x0rz at piano/keyboard i'm not expecting it to be bad.

[TheMansonMan]

can't say that any of muses albums are shite
either 'origin of symmetry' or 'absolution' are their best
