There's something about them that, to me, says 'smug, arrogant, cynical, cocaine'. The further into their career they progress the more they wheel out the 'unique hybrid of Queen, Radiohead and Prince' tropes with increasingly diminishing artistic returns.

They song they did at the Olympics was tuneless, written to order nonsense. Technically they're a great bad, emotionally they are redundant. Even Matt Bellamy's haircut aint what it used to be...


I knew it wouldn't be universally popular!




Edit: one thing in their defence - they do at least right songs about the destruction of the environment and things - they show a modicum of political awareness that is thoroughly missing from most of their contemporaries. I'd rather our boys liked them than some X Factor crap or something.
