When I was in a Muse Tribute I used a combination of the Korg AXB3000 with individual pedals. These were a Blowtorch, Boss ODB-3 and a Boss CEB-3. If you try to replicate exactly the sound of Time is Running Out, Hysteria, Uprising etc.. you'll end up going round in circles and spending a fortune ( I know from experience! ) I found the above pedals got me as close as I needed to the sounds, but then again it depends on the guitar and amp set-up. I would definitely recommend the Blowtorch for Muse sounds, but I'm sure other members of this forum will recommend other pedals. Feel free to drop me a pm if you want any more advice.

MUSE tribute band CITIZENS ERASED are playing The River Rooms, Stourbridge on Sat 22th May - with tracks from all 5 studio albums.

MUSE tribute band CITIZENS ERASED are playing The Studio, Hartlepool on Sat 15th May - with tracks from all 5 studio albums.

Nothing wrong with the Behringer and under £30

If it's a dirty distortion you want, I wouldn't go for the blowtorch. I also use it for Starlight and Time is Running Out by Muse - it's excellent for these sounds, but as previously said, it's more of an understated synth sound - and I agree that without the "torch" button on, it's not that impressive.

CITIZENS ERASED are playing The Forum, Darlington on 13th March + support - A Fable for the Curious

Music was pretty good and will only get better with practice and experience, and you look the part. We're a 5-piece because of keyboards, and band was formed by a guitarist who couldn't do lead vocals. If there's anything I can help you with ( not that I think you need any help ) drop me a pm

Cheers Toddy - I hope it's a good gig 'cos I'm travelling quite a way after a day at work. Booked in overnight so at least can sample the local brew though!

No, we don't try to look like them and we are a 5-piece : Vocals, guitar, bass, drums and keys ( really talented young girl on keys ) What we do endeavour to do is to recreate their live sound, doing material from all their albums. In my opinion Muse stopped being a 3-piece years ago, which is a pity because it's the earlier material that I really liked - the jury's still out for now on their new album as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for the post wishing us best of luck - I thought for a minute that you had experience of the venue and it was a bit dodgy!!

Was that sincere or do you know something we don't?

CITIZENS ERASED bring the sound of MUSE to The Diamond, Sutton in Ashfield, on Sunday 13th Dec - plus G&R tribute Lose your Illusion

CITIZENS ERASED bring the sound of MUSE to Revolver, Birkenhead on Saturday 14th Nov.
