  1. Update: listened to it since posting last and man if it didn't make me shake my little ass! Everyone's entitled to their opinions but this is the first single that has me stoked for the album. Got me shaking my little ass! It's definitely the Uprising/Psycho/Pressure of the album and with that comes some lyricism to be desired but I will almost always take "Muse just having a blast" if given the option especially when it makes me shake my little ass. Hopefully it's not the best song on the album but if most of what's left is in this direction, there may be hope for me yet!
  2. I mean, I agree with what your saying but "ministry of truth" is pretty infamously a buzz phrase these days and when you throw that onto the pile with a song/album called "Will Of The People", another buzz phrase often utilized by the same people; as well as a song called "Compliance" with a music video in which people are ripping off masks, it's just... it seems like it will appeal to the wrong type of people. I know Matt well enough to trust that he doesn't actually espouse these views but if this is all truly accidental then he needs an editor before finalizing lyrics. If it's all ironic, I guess I haven't put the whole picture together. And maybe that's it: it's a concept album, maybe it all makes sense when we see the big picture.
  3. It's honestly kind of adorable how hopelessly desperate r/muse is for content to talk about.
  4. It's a great closer if you want to do some smoochin' with that special someone 👀
  5. For the longest time I've ragged on the pop rock tracks like Uprising and Pressure but I've developed a soft spot for them. We know they're capable of much more complex songwriting but man if those songs aren't a good time! Need that tour announcement soon man. Starting to actually get my hopes up that they wont skip over NC this time.
  6. As resident unpopular opinion guy, I actually don't mind Starlight as a closer so long as they put some umph into it. I believe I recall them closing with Survival at one of the shows I saw in 2013. Wasn't bad but felt like a transitional track rather than a closer. CE would make a great closer, I will die on this hill!
  7. The August release date is brutal but will fly by I'm sure. I don't want to be inundated with singles like we were for Drones and ST but we need at least one more to hold us over until then. WotP and Verona sound like they could potentially be good summer jams?
  8. Ah well I'm a T2L apologist so they might be speaking my language 😏
  9. Sadly this is the least hyped I've been for a new release. Album rollouts are fun in general so there's a little bleed over from that but I strongly dislike WSD and Compliance could very well grow on me but for now it's just fine. Even the aesthetics of album are a bit of a turn off for me. Smells way too much of Drones 2 to me. I admit that I jumped the gun on worrying about Matt's messaging. It's still lame, but not ideologically reprehensible like I feared. Anyways I pre-ordered the deluxe bundle...
  10. I actually don't know what that refers to but will look into it. I'm nervous! 😅
  11. Taking a deep breath and telling myself not to assume i know what he's referring to but "wont stand down" "will of the people" and "compliance" feel very buzzword-y to me.
  12. As stated previously, going to try to remain optimistic but now that we're almost two months out from WSD, I can say definitively that it doesn't do it for me. Not saying it's bad but I cannot see myself listening to it again outside of the context of the album. And that "will of the people" chant has me bracing myself for Drones Pt 2. Not that it's my place to say whether or not that's a good thing but it wouldn't be my first choice. WITH THAT SAID, there's nothing quite as exciting to me as a new album rollout (coughAndTourcough). Are we expecting an announcement tomorrow or should I lower my expectations?
  13. Now that we have our first taste of what we might be getting from the new album, presuming the rest of the album and succeeding tour have a heavier bent, what songs do we expect/hope will make a return?
  14. I think that's exactly what it is oh dear god So if we're to believe that WSD is any indication of what we're getting on the record/tour.......does that mean pop medley? 😏 Muprh rising from the stage with a Snapchat dog ear filter while the band plays "Guiding Light"
  15. Thanks for the recs! I'm definitely leaning towards the Sabbathy/stoner metal bands. I know they're a little divisive but I'm really liking The Sword as well. Excited to check out Kyuss as I've been on a QOTSA kick lately as well. Side note: I'm back into Mars Volta after a decade of not really listening to them too much, thanks to this thread. Same! It's not Muse without at least a hint of camp, which is a huge factor of what I love about them.
