Eh, I posted this in the survey thread
Alright, I registered for the sole purpose of saying this, Muse is the best possible choice for a game as of right now, although I may be a huge fan, I have attended over twenty gigs, including Glaston and Wembley [in which they earned my true respect for them as musicians] throughout my life. Although five studio albums may not even nearly be enough of a library to some of you, listen to any one of those songs, except for about four or five of them... They'd all work for Rock Band, ESPECIALLY with the introduction of the keyboard instrument. Although many of you may have different tastes in music, metal heads, this can't really appeal to you, sorry, closest thing we have for you is Execution Commentary. For everyone else, there is a little something for you all in there. Some of it may be a little tame, but then there are some heavier songs in there. Especially when you look at some of the B-Sides, which are just as equally as good as the material on the albums.
To all the people voting for Queen, why aren't you going along with Muse as your optional choice? Even if your band doesn't get picked, you're at least increasing the chances that one of the bands that took the most influence from them get into the hands of millions of newcomers. Even Brian May has respect for these guys, calling them "extraordinary musicians".
Muse has played many noteworthy gigs, they headlined V Festival in 2008, Glastonbury in 2004, hundreds of stadium gigs, small venues and even sold out Wembley Stadium back in 2007 which houses 70,000 viewers for music based events, a feat which hasn't been seen by anyone other than The Beatles and a few others. These guys have been around since 1997 and are still going strong, producing quality work which would leave tons of room for DLC. These guys may not be "noteworthy" musicians to some of you but I assure you, in fifty years. Muse will be recognized as one of the most influential bands of our time, and making a product go onto the shelves will only help that happen, it won't be the sole reason, but it will help.
Closing statement, if Green Day can get a box on the shelf, Muse sure as hell can too, also to those questioning their musical abilities... Watch this, and if this doesn't sway your opinion, I don't know what will. At least give it a chance before you bash it.
