EricOJun 28, 2004The arrangement of music is mystifying. It takes you to another dimension that you knew existed but were too afraid to enter. Absolutely brilliant

WillKJun 26, 2004it is a brilliant CD: probably the best one that Muse have ever done (and that says a lot!)

CalebSMay 14, 2004Muse expounds pure emotion rock like nobody else. People who don't like it, just don't get it.

AndyLApr 25, 2004I first discovered MUSE when i heard the fabulous Origin Of Symmetry. Considering how good that was i certainly had high hopes for Absolution and i wasnt disappointed. The mix of intensity, grandoise and innovation found is unmistakably theirs. Make no mistake about it this is muse at their best (well for the time being anyway :D)

masterd.Apr 7, 2004I can't stop listening this! Suddenly I started to like " Plug in baby", and now, well, can't push stop.

ErwinKApr 5, 2004Hadn't really paid that much attention to Muse in the past. But then I saw them at The Big Day Out in Melbourne and I was blown away. My only criticism about the album is that it is too intense.

FilterA massive concept album that is so gluttonously huge-sounding that it makes The Wall sound like a Sebadoh record. [#10, p.94]
-
Despite the daunting Radiohead-colored cloud that hangs heavy over Muse, the band pushes the limits of its slick, pre-apocalyptic rock with a self-assured strut.
-
MojoPushes the trio's grandiose delusions onto new levels of interpretative-dancing, mirror-cracking excess. [Oct 2003, p.107]
