  1. Muse have stated they would like to record the new James Bond theme.

     

    QuoteRock band Muse have said they would be keen to record the theme for the next James Bond film.

     

    "It's something we'd probably say yes to, or at least give it a good go," drummer Dom Howard told the BBC.

     

    The new Muse album The Resistance, released this week, sees the band blending their stadium rock sound with strings and opera.

     

    "Certainly some of our music fits with the James Bond vibe - and I think it could work," Howard said.

  3. The band also performs on the awards show, which airs live Sunday at 9 p.m. ET.

     

    When Muse signed on to perform at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, they did it with one caveat: Since the show was taking place just steps from Broadway, they wanted to do a show tune. For real.

     

    So, of course, we obliged (after all, they are one of the hugest rock acts in the world). And while they'll perform "Uprising" — the first single from their upcoming The Resistance — during the VMAs telecast, we also let them loose on a classic from the Great White Way: "America," the flamboyant standard from Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim's "West Side Story."

     

    "Yeah, 'West Side Story' is really cool. ... The song we chose to play, 'America,' is a very catchy tune," Muse frontman Matt Bellamy told MTV News. "I remember a version by a prog group called the Nice [an early forerunner of Emerson, Lake and Palmer] in the '70s, which was a pretty cool three-piece rock version, so I thought that would be a good version for us to play, because we're a three-piece too."

     

    So Bellamy and company got to work on their version of "America," recording the tune — and filming a VMA promotional spot — in their Dover, England, rehearsal space (which probably explains why bassist Chris Wolstenholme can be seen traipsing around in a Captain America outfit in the video that accompanies this story).

     

    And, as is to be expected, Muse's take on the tune is wonderful, weird and wild — which is pretty amazing, considering they had almost zero knowledge of the song before deciding to cover it.

     

    "I've never actually seen ['West Side Story'] myself, but Don's seen it, and he's a big fan of it," Bellamy said.

     

    "I didn't see it when I was a kid. I saw it a couple of years ago, and I loved the way it looked. ... It's all these really strong colors, the songs are really great," Howard added. "There's this scene I really liked with these guys: they're having a fight in a car park, and it's a bit like that Michael Jackson video 'Bad,' and they start singing this song to cool down, take it easy. It was pretty cool."

  4. wow.. "rintangan" mmg menarik!

     

    antara "jejak-jejak" menarik "rintangan", "keinginan yang tidak diperlihatkan", "pemilihan tidak semulajadi", "terlampau MK", "ku milikmu".

     

    kalau diperhatikan secara teliti, bunyi deram "keinginan yang tidak diperlihatkan" lebih kurang sama dengan bunyi deram "lohong hitam gergasi"..

     

    irama untuk penutup "pemilihan tidak semulajadi" sungguh menakjubkan!

     

    lagu "terlampau MK" adalah yang terbaik! agak berat berbanding lagu-lagu lain..

     

    susunan lagu "ku milikmu" sungguh menarik dan menakjubkan!

     

    :LOL::LOL::LOL:

  5. isk.. sapa punya idea sembang dlm bm ni? jd lawak plak.. hahaha... btw, u guys creatif!

    ha, sapa yg order deluxe edition tu, kongsi2 la sama video.. kesian kawan2 yg x mampu.. :D

     

    Selamat berpuasa semua... errr, selamat berbahasa melayu jugak ;):LOL:

  6. Lyrics : ;):p:happy::eek:

     

    You and me are the same

    We don't know or care who's to blame

    But we know that whoever hold the reins

    Nothing will change our cause has gone insane

     

    And these wars, they can't be won

    And these wars, they can't be won

    And do you want them to go on and on ?

    Why split this states where they can be only one ?

     

    And must we do as we're told ?

    Must we do as we're told ?

     

    You and me fall in line

    To be punished for unproven crimes!

    And we know that there's no one we can trust

    Our ancient heroes, they are turning to dust!

     

    And these wars, they can't be won

    Does anyone know or care how they begun?

    They just promised to go on and on

    But soon we will see there can be only one!

     

    United States!

    United States!

    of..

     

    Eurasia!

    ...sia!

    ...sia!

    ...sia!

     

    Eurasia!

    ...sia!

    ...sia!

    ...sia!

     

    Eurasia!

    ...sia!

    ...sia!

    ...sia!

  7. 01. « Uprising » 5 :02

     

    Matt bellamy's voice is deeper than usual. In terms of lyrics, its the usual Muse: conspiracies, apocalypse, he announces a gathering, speaks of victory and that "they will not control us." The sound, still very dense and heavy is accompanied by passages of synths. The overall structure is rather straightforward.

     

    02. « Resistance » 5 :46

     

    Opening in Piano, cavalcade of drums. You could swear that Freddi Mercury participated in the chorus

     

     

    03. « Undisclosed Desires » 3 :56

     

    A sound very reminiscent of Depeche Mode hovers over this piece without guitars but with vocoder laced vocals

     

     

    04. « United States Of Eurasia » (+ Collateral Damage) 5 :47

     

    Bohemian Rapsody (Queen) + Lawrence of Arabie (la score of Maurice Jarre)+ Chopin =A long cinémato-classic-rock trip

     

    Matt Bellamyhas returned to his falsetto. The song ends on a sound of a plane taking off (Space ship? Missile taking off?)

     

     

    05. « Guiding Light » 4 :13

     

    Return of the guitar solo. One of the defining features of the pompous style of Muse

     

     

    06. « Unnatural Selection »

     

    Opens with Church Organs before the arrical of the drums and the powerful guitars. An epic and lyrical song.

     

     

    07. « MK Ultra »

     

    Lots of electronics and bodybuilder like riffs. (meaning very very powerful?)

     

     

    08. « I Belong To You » (+ Mon Coeur S'ouvre A Ta Voix)

     

    A title borrowed from the opera Samson and Dalila. A surprising delayed rythm. Clarinette arrives at the end of the song. Matt sings a few verses in French...very hard to understand.

     

     

    09. « Exogenesis : Symphony Part I » (Overture)

    10. « Exogenesis : Symphony Part II » (Cross Pollination)

    11. « Exogenesis : Symphony Part III » (Redemption)

     

    Matts voice is very reminiscent of Thom Yorke here. This symphonie would almost pass for the guilty pleasure of a star with a passion for the romantic composers such as Chopin and Liszt...

  8. This has come from the French media source “JudeBox”. The review was originally in French, and probably lacks perfection. For the first time we have some song durations.

     

    That was a meeting with Muse? A little patience. First some background: Devon trio Muse will release their fifth album on September 14. Entitled “The Resistance” which will comprises of eleven tracks. For fear of piracy, Warner, their record company, organized a promo with the group on Wednesday July 8 in a Parisian hotel in the 8th arrondissement. Myself and fellow journalists were uncovered “The Resistance” only an hour and a half before my interview with the band. In the end, my interview was reduced to 15 minutes.

     

    Two weeks ago, I was in a hotel room in Paris with the Beastie Boys. We found ourselves having to do an interview after a single listen and without the lyrics. Even if there were ten listens, it’s not enough to write an accurate review. We will not complain about these types of encounters but frankly, what is the point of them organizing these kinds of things? How do you get to the bottom of things when you have just 15 minutes with an artist who has worked maybe 3 years to deliver their music? How do we ask respectable questions when we listened to their work an hour earlier on a headset in hotel suite, guarded by security who searched us head to toe for recording devices?

     

    Anyway, The Resistance is eleven songs, the symphony “Exogenesis” is divided into three movements. My first impressions on this album is powerful but still maybe less extravagant than previous albums... [Read track-by-track review below]

     

    01. “Uprising” 5: 02

     

    Matt Bellamy’s voice is more serious and academic than usual. However it is delivered in a similar vein: Conspiracy, Apocalypse … He announces a “union”, speaks of “victory” that “they do not control.” Sound is still very heavy and dense, accompanied by mounted synthesizers. The structure of the song is simple for once.

     

    02. “Resistance” 5: 46

    Entry Piano cavalcade battery. We swear that Freddie Mercury participates in choirs.

     

    03. “Undisclosed Desires” 3: 56

    The thud of metal and Depeche Mode on this plane guitar piece but without votes vocodée

     

    04. “United States Of Eurasia (Collateral Damage) 5: 47

    Sounds like Bohemian Rapsody (Queen) Lawrence of Arabia (the soundtrack of Maurice Jarre) = Chopin a long trip film classic-rock.

    Matt Bellamy’s falsetto is present. The song ends on the sound of a jet (spaceship? Or a missile?)

     

    05. “Guiding Light” 4: 13

    The return of guitar solos, one of the trademarks of the fireman’s style in Muse.

     

    06. “Unnatural Selection”

    Opens with church organ before battery and powerful guitars. A song lyric and epic.

     

    07. “MK Ultra”

    Electronic sounds and riffs bodybuilder.

     

    08. “I Belong To You” (Mon coeur s’ouvre à ta voix)

    A title borrowed from the opera Samson et Dalila (see below). Surprisingly lacking in pace. Like the clarinet, which comes at the end of the song. Matt Bellamy sings some verses in french. Almost incomprehensible.

     

    09. “Exogenesis: Symphony Part I” (Overture)

    The voice of Matt Bellamy recalls that many of Tom Yorke. This symphony rise to almost the whim of a star by passionate romantic composers: Chopin, Liszt …

     

    10. “Exogenesis: Symphony Part II” (Cross Pollination)

    The group works on the visual. It is about a man defying the masses. I asked Dominic to write the name of the English artist who bosse dessus: La Bocca. Nothing on Google. In contrast: LaBoca, it seems paste.

     

    11. “Exogenesis: Symphony Part III” (Redemption)

    Inspirational Matthew Bellamy told me about the Queen of 1984, George Orwell, a big book: The Grand chessboard of American political scientist Zbigniew Brzeninski, the opera Samson et Dalila and other things.

    Finished.. Possibly..

    Hi,

     

     

    So, I think,,, we've actually finished the album. Its all mixed so we are just listening to it a lot to really make sure its done but we seem to be agreeing it is.

    It sounds f**king great and is my favorite album by far, but the new ones always are.!

    September is hopefully the month of kick off but there are still lots of things to get together before then. Like learning how to play these songs live for one.. That should take a while!

     

     

    Just want to say thanks to everyone who bought tickets for the tour in the autumn. We are immensely looking forward to it but also can only apologize for some idiot touts that are selling tickets for £200 - £600 in certain places. Obviously this has nothing to do with the band and not something we condone at all. We can try our best to try and prevent this but as you can imagine its quite hard. All our tickets are a fixed price and spending more than that is not something we expect. But keep posted as some more tickets for some shows may get released later down the line.

     

     

    Anyway, see you guys soon,

     

     

    Dom.

  11. Dom posted this update to his Myspace page a few hours ago, stating that mixing has begun and that the album should be released in the next few months

     

     

    "Hi,

     

    Yes, The Resistance is on it's way. Out in a few months hopefully. We've just started mixing some tracks and it sounds wicked. Still got a bit more work to do but its coming along nicely.

     

    See you guys soon..

     

    Dom."
