This is AWESOME!  I had forgotten about it until a little while ago.  I'm not a terribly huge Muse fan, but I liked some of these covers more than I did the real versions. XD  Good work!

I am so sad I missed out on this. (I joined 8BC too late!) Muse is my favorite band, I definitely would have contributed. New Born or Sunburn, probably. Oh, wait, no! Muscle Museum, for sure.

"Knights of Cydonia" is especially sexgasmic.

Maybe we could get a volume 2 going at some point if enough people showed interest x]
Ohh and we've broken 200 downloads big_smile

Knights of Cydonia has a soft and sweet sound, almost like if it wasn't on a Game Boy. I think it's rad.

This has been getting good reviews by the Muse Community. We should organize another one in the near future.
I mean listen to this epic track by Renegade Runner:

Excellent cover.

i think sunburn would be a good track to do, may even give it a go with LSDJ and an emulator. I need to practice on LSDJ a bit anyway...
