The new Queen? Flattering perhaps but as far as ambitious, pretentious prog rockers go, Matt Bellamy and co conjure up a few over-blown tricks to suggests the comparison may not be that wide of the mark.

Hung around the Nina Simone classic, 'Feeling Good' features an injection of meaty Muse guitars, some hammer horror organ high jinks, and a good deal of wailing but surely the megaphone is a pompous step too far?

You have to admire their front. The most interesting guitar band in Britain by a mile.
