I've got zero complaints about this one. I may crank up the bass a bit in my iTunes eq when I listen to it.
Love it, great lyric vid too.
Best thing since BHaR.
-
So we have Jimmy Hendrix, Dire Straits and now Muse's first ever Rod Stewart comparison. I'm intrigued.
-
Not sure why my itunes shows the tracklist in this order
Because that's your search results, not the album page.
-
But remember when they did KoC on Jools? that was a whole different level ...
Nono, when they did Hyper Music.
-
BIG surprises in store for next week.
A set of Wolstentwins?
-
Jeez man, stand STILL!
Can see why they usually interview Matt and Dom!
Matt isn't exactly motionless himself. Although I guess you can put something in his hands to fidget with to keep the rest of his body in one place for a bit.
-
Can't believe that Dom has the best hair now
That old rocker Lou Reed look?
-
Doesn't a live chat defeat the object of a forum?
It's a nice outlet for people who constantly want to say something when there's nothing to say. It keeps the board a bit cleaner. Like a drain for verbal diarrhea.
-
They gave The 2nd law & TR 4/5
Well, at least it isn't any worse then... Woop tee doo!
But since they list Mercy as a stand out track I'm not sure this review makes me too hopeful.
-
Drones sounds worse. My mother, my father, my brother, my sister killed by drones. Amen. Or something
I have no problem with that for some reason.
Edit: yet
-
The NME one is better, and it's pretty obvious they're going to ask the Kate questions.
This is the NME one though, just (rotten) cherry picked by Gigwise to get some clicks.
NME isn't a saint when it comes to fluffing up content that's not their own either. They manage to creative fictitious Q&As out of a few tweets.
-
though Muse doing an Alanis Kind of track would be pretty lol
Yeah, but not One.
They should do Lamb's One.
-
I have no problem hearing CIA baby.
Me neither. I do have a problem WITH hearing it though.
-
Distorted voice confirmed then?
Good to know it won't just be those IG hooligan shouts.
It's the robotic bit Morgan does.
-
I thought that too. I heard Aftermath was supposed to be like One and got really excited thinking it would be like Metallica's song...
...
...
Then I realised it was, in fact, U2.
At least it's not Alanis Morisette's One. Or Creed's.
-
At this point anything to distract me from finals is a good thing. I don't really feel tired until 2-3 AM these days anyways so it kind of works out
EDIT: Wouldn't mind getting a Most Diligent Muser 2015 plug though
I'm on a similar time zone on roughly the same schedule, I'm sure that adds to my perception of you always being here whenever I pop by.
-
Damn people are slow. Those handler lyrics are from another review. There were like 8 that came out in one night. I have all of the lyrics we know compiled by the way of anyone's interested
Most diligent Muser 2015.
Seriously though, aren't you worried you may be spending a little too much time on all this?
-
‘Reapers’ takes the war for control of your mind right to the frontline of the war against terror: “You kill by remote control/The world is on your side. You’ve got the CIA babe.”
That last line...
Do reviewers get the lyrics on paper, or is this their interpretation of the squealed chorus?
-
The songs ends with a section of this:
also, lyrics:
“My mother, my father, my sister and my brother, my son and my daughter killed by drones”
I hope his vocal delivery on this one is better than the last time he attempted to sing a classical song. That bit in IBTY isn't exactly stellar.
-
6/10...really? I thought this was gonna be a game changer for humanity
Humanity clearly isn't ready for this yet. We're not worthy.
-
"with some arpeggiated effects which make for some... annoying arpeggios. "
Lovely.
-
I'm fine if the reviewer thought the album was a 6/10 - but as others have said, he just seemed to be taking shots at Matt and the lyrics and themes, and talked unacceptably little about how the music actually sounds.
Not what I consider much of a review.
Maybe so, maybe not. If at the end of listening to an album all you can remember are the crappy lyrics then the music must not have been good enough to forgive the bad bits.
-
That Classic Rock review sort of reflects my opinion on what I've heard and seen so far. Of course, my base-level of affection for the band is probably a bit higher than the reviewer's, so I have a higher tolerance for crappy lyrics and middle school level political opinions. What I've heard so far seems cold, uninspired and creatively lacking. That's not to say there aren't parts I enjoy, but I don't feel connected to it, for lack of a better expression.
My feeling is I'll end up rating it 7/10, right up there with the last two albums. I still expect there to be four or so songs that I'll actually keep listening to, which would be a better score than the last two actually.

The poopiest song on the album.

Lame, I practically live next to the one in SF. LA is a bit too far.
