  1. FAWY has always been and remains one of Muse's finest songs. It gets me every time. It's one of their most truly heartfelt.
  2. Anything to avoid another ST. What a crock. Still better than T2L though, tbh.
  3. Shrinking Universe Dead Star Nature_1 In Your World Not really bothered about the rest.
  4. Drones >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ST >>>>>>>>>>>>> T2L. Drones 7.5/10 ST 4/10 T2L 2.5/10
  5. Dead Inside Dead Inside Dead Inside
  6. I still think the most fruitful avenue would be a sustained, album-length crossover of their harder rock, electronic and poppier shades - Bliss, Recess, Shrinking Universe, Hysteria, Endlessly, FAWY, Take A Bow, Starlight, MOTP, Uprising, UD, MK Ultra, Isolated System, Dead Inside, Reapers, Algorithm, Break It To Me and so on. They clearly have an eye for this kind of crossover, where Depeche Mode meets RATM or post-OKC Radiohead meets synthpop. Etc.
  7. What the fucking fuck is the point of playing - all bar one song - the identical show in the same city three months apart? Gash. This tour has been utter shite. The worst.
  8. Nice. Very nice indeed. Shame still about the rest of the set. If they'd played Bliss and this had come in for Madness, that would have been ace (I like Dig Down in its hokey form).
  9. It’s happening. Bet there are end of year gigs too.
  10. Think I’m down to just HT&ILY, Host and Falling Away With You now. The Void would be cool. Would like to see Endlessly to ‘complete’ Absolution along with FAWY.
  11. Fixing the ST tour.

  12. It’s official; Dead Inside has become my favourite Muse song. Honestly, this song has grown on me ever single day since I first heard it in Brighton on the Psycho tour. It is, for me, Muse’s best distillation of the perfect crossover electro-pop song they’ve tried so hard to achieve (with some success it must be said - I really don’t mind UD or Madness at all, studio far more than live). But DI is just pure perfection, and features not only one of Matt’s best vocal performances, but some of his very best lyrics.
  13. They said they were filming the O2 shows, no? Tbh, I really hope they don't go big on a release for this tour. It's been hugely underwhelming. Any of the previous tours - Drones, T2L or The Resistance - had much better productions. In fact, I would have loved to have seen the Resistance towers show given the full DVD treatment. That was an amazing set up.
  14. Well rigidity was one of their main complaints about the Drones tour, or at least the repetitiveness of the show every night. This tour has been 100x worse.
  15. The Mayan gig is, indeed, brilliant. They seem to play so many of the songs just a touch up-tempo, really helps them feel even more live. Dead Inside was SO good live in the early stages of the Drones tour. In fact, I'd say the highest points of the Drones tour were right up there with Muse's very best post-Absolution. Not a single moment of the ST tour has got remotely close to the Drones tour.
  16. GVF are an absolute abomination. I think it was Pitchfork who described them most accurately as little more than a musical algorithm for the Spotify era.
  17. So Werchter just turned out to be the same show without the frills?
  18. They did Glasto 99, 00, 04, 10 and 16, iirc. If any, it would have to have been one of the first two.
