Radiohead is one of my favorite bands. I have always found their multi-layered instrumentation, multi-textured music, and vocals to be very unique and distinctive.
So I downloaded 2 Muse albums because I loved their song “Starlight” and played them on my iPod. Had I not known that I was listening to Muse I would definitely have mistaken some of their songs to be Radiohead songs. The instrumentation and vocal quality is too similar with tracks from Radiohead’s OK Computer.
Try listening to the Muse track “Falling Away From You”, taken off their Absolution album.
Radiohead’s musical diversity is still leaps and bounds ahead of Muse, though I am very excited with what the future may bring for Muse.

I agree with you. In my opinion, Radiohead is the best band on earth, Muse is the best Live band on earth. However, Muse does not lag far behind radiohead in song writing. Both are my favourites
