Muse are unhappy with the way American right-wingers, particularly Glenn Beck, have embraced their music, The Guardian reports. In an upcoming interview with the Observer on Sunday, singer Matt Bellamy singles out Beck's affinity for the band's 2009 album "The Resistance," and criticizes the conservative radio host for using the single "Uprising" in rightwing conspiracy-theorist videos on YouTube.

"In the U.S. the conspiracy theory subculture has been hijacked by the right to try to take down people like Obama and put forward rightwing libertarianism," said Bellamy, who describes himself as "a left-leaning libertarian -- more in the realm of Noam Chomsky." He continued, "'Uprising' was requested by so many politicians in America for use in their rallies and we turned them down on a regular basis."

Bellamy maintained his lyrical content is more about personal healing than espousing political sentiments. "When I dabble in watching the news and reading about current events I tend to get a future negative view and that's something I've dealt with through music," he said. "It's quite possible I'm slightly paranoid. But I'd say making music is an expression of feelings of helplessness and lack of control that I think a lot of people can relate to."

Muse's next album, "The 2nd Law," is out Oct. 2.

It looks like Muse is facing some legal resistance. The British rockers have found themselves at the center of a $3.5 million lawsuit filed by a songwriter against Warner Music Group claiming Muse ripped off his concept for a sci-fi rock opera about the destruction of earth and humanity's quest to save itself for their three-part symphonic suite they dubbed "Exogenesis."

According to court documents obtained by Courthouse News Service and filed in federal court in Manhattan, Charles Bollfrass claims he pitched the trio, as well as two other unidentified bands, his idea in 2005, which he also called "Exogenesis." However, the composer was informed they weren't interested.

Muse however subsequently unveiled "Exogenesis Symphony," the last three tracks on their most recent record, 2009's "The Resistance," which is comprised of the tracks "Exogenesis: Symphony Part 1 (Overture), "Exogenesis: Symphony Part 2 (Cross-Pollination)" and "Exogenesis: Symphony Part 3 (Redemption)." All three songs were credited to the group's principle songwriter, singer-guitarist Matthew Bellamy.

Per Bollfrass, the band subsequently used the composer's story as the basis for their version, which "The Resistance's" liner notes described it as "humanity coming to an end and everyone pinning their hopes on a group of astronauts who go out to explore space and spread humanity to another planet."

Bolfrass also accused Muse of pilfering an image from the storyboards of his rock opera and he's suing Warner for copyright infringement, unfair trade practices and unfair competition.

In a statement to E! News, the band denied the allegations.

"The claim is complete nonsense, and is categorically denied. It appears to be based on a 'screenplay' which the band never received or saw, produced by someone the band has never heard of. It speaks volumes that the album in question was released a full 3 years ago, and yet this is the first that has been heard of these groundless allegations," said Muse's rep.

The rep added that Warner Music "will aggressively defend this lawsuit and the band is exploring what remedies may be available to them in the U.S. in relation to these untrue and baseless allegations."
