Muse is one of the best bands nowdays, they played four times in Wembley Stadium, plus other stadiums like Stade de France or San Siro. They have great songs like ''Uprising'', ''Knights Of Cydonia'' or ''Exogenesis Symphony''
But now, i found this in the web, Brian May said he loves ''The Resistance'' his last album link
And at some point frontman and lead guitar Matt Bellamy said Queen is the best band in the world link
If someone don't know that band, here is a link to ''Supermassive Black Hole'' in Wembley in 2007 link
This is fantastic! I never noticed the respect between them

I disagree with you. Muse is good and very talented band, one of most interesting newcomers in rock music. Anyway, they are one of very few modern bands that I like, alongside with Radiohead.

Having seen Queen live between 1976 - 1986 and Muse Live in 2004 & 2010, I have to say they were BOTH outstanding live acts.
I also have all the Muse albums - I love 'em

Muse are a good lot. I remember when they were lambasted for being Radiohead wannabes. Then they became their own monster sized band. Good on em.

I have seen them last April, supporting U2 in Argentina. They are my fave band, along with Queen of course. Mind-blowing live act, I have seen them twice (2008 and 2011). In an recent interview in the most important argentinian newspaper, Matt has said " the best band in the world is Queen, definitely". Here's the link: link
Muse definitely had shades of Radiohead in their first two or three albums, but they have evolved into a sound of their own. As far as I'm concerned, Black Holes And Revelations is one of the very best rock records of the modern era. I foresee them hanging around for years to come, but this record may be their Sgt Pepper.
Best Muse concert so far is Glastonbury 2010.
Muse is like the modern-new-Queen. Even the albums follow a simular tend to the Queen albums
Showbiz and Origin Of Symmetry; I havnt heard however
Absolution = Sheer Heart Attack
Black Holes and Revelations = A Night at the Opera
The Resistence = A Day at the Races
Muse album 5 which is send to be something lower key simular to News Of the World.
Even the point of which Muse acheved mass attention is also simular to Queen, see Absolution/Sheer Heart Attack.
Hearing the singer's breathing is a common feature in modern pop music. Bellamy just overdramatizes it. It's an interesting thing to have mentioned, though, because many vocal instructors I know hate that, and try to steer their students to breathe as silently as possible. The way I see it, it's really a matter of taste vs. modern pop sound requirements. Queen used some breathing as a nice effect once in a while, too; I personally like the way Freddie uses his breathing as a way of adding some tension in Millionnaire Waltz, for example.

I heard if you don't breathe you can pass out
