Nah Psycho at least is definitely better than every song on The Resistance
Â
Â
I know, I know... opinions are opinions...
-
From the 3 songs we've heard already it's probably safe to say that this album will be better than the Resistance.
Â
Is this board really anti-Resistance? It wasn't a perfect album, but I'd easily say that Uprising, Unnatural Selection, MK Ultra, and all of Exo are better than Psycho or Dead Inside. I like the live Reapers a lot, but I'll reserve actual comparison until I hear the studio version.
-
This will be the pinnacle moment in Muse fandom disappointment. It's going to be absolutely brutal. No matter what the song sounds like (and I doubt it sounds like CE), it will not live up to the expectations.
-
Very 80s. Different vocal delivery for Matt. Didn't really pick up on the lyrics...
Eh, it's no Survival disaster, but it certainly didn't grab my attention.
-
Yep, this seems about right.
-
Some sick part of me is hoping for another Survival just to see the reactions.
-
WHat are you bitching about? That 1 sec teaser shows fuck all.
And what if he sings Dead Inside in that fashion? The song can turn out to be anyting.
No. Not possible. Grab the pitchforks.
-
Oh you people. Somehow, album cycle after cycle, I'm amazed at the way fans react to stuff.
-
why the fuck am I listening to commercials in dutch?
Right? It's like I'm having a stroke.
-
When was the last time we, Muse fandom, were happy about a Muse single? I have always seen mixed reactions. We are very hard to please... :LOL:
Hmmm. That's actually a good question. I've only been on the message boards since before BHaR, but there certainly hasn't a been a single people liked since then. SMBH was hilariously received. Uprising went over decently, actually. Madness and/or Survival... that was hilarious.
-
Aside the lyrics, Survival is a really really good song. I can't understand why some people hate it.
The structure is what kills it for me. I hate the bouncy piano, tacky background vocals, and silly chorus. The end is pretty cool (minus the whole "win" garbage), but it doesn't feel remotely earned to me.
-
Survival is better than what I've heard of Reapers so far.
I mean, I'm not loving Reapers... but Survival is on another level of suck.
-
In no particular order:
Survival
Explorers
Guiding Light
Sober
Overdue
-
If they can finally drop the Energy-Killing-Trifecta of Madness, Starlight, and Feeling Good, I'd be happy. Those on their own are all fine, but man was it brutal when they play all the mellow stuff in one go.
-
Didn't "Born this way" rip that one off, anyways? I've never really heard the GaGa song...
Yep. I had forgotten about Born this Way since the first time I heard that one, I also thought of Express Yourself.
And now all I hear during the solo is Sweet Home Alabama's solo.
Man, I was so digging this song, but now it's just feeling like a mashup of other songs.
-
I like it a lot, but it certainly doesn't feel original. The guitar is pure ACDC and the melody of the chorus is straight up Madonna's "Express Yourself."
Still, fun song.
-
It's an album track, and it fits the theme of relentlessly pounding someone's mind to break them down.
Besides, even as a Stockholm outtro I wouldn't mind this riff going on for five minutes live.
If it really is a concept album, then I can see how this will work as an album track. Listening to it on its own, I felt like I was waiting for something to happen.
-
I think it's great, but I'd like it more if the song would've evolved a bit to the end.
This is exactly what is bothering me about it. It never goes anywhere. For being 5 and a half minutes long, nothing really happens. This one could have really benefited from Muse's tried and true "End with a completely different riff" ala Stockholm, MK Ultra, or Unnatural Selection.
-
Well. I don't really like it, but it still makes me more excited for the album than Survival did. THAT was a disaster.
This is just... expected.
-
This sucks. Muse better just release it for everyone now.
Ugh.
-
I kicked myself for not getting the Resistance box set, but only because it had that 5.1 mix. I still want that and have never heard it.
But then the box set for T2L was so pointless.
I'm really hoping for some cool extra content this time around.
-
This Lee Sayer dumbass's 'game changer for humanity' bullshit just makes me think the lyrics of this album will contain crazy ridiculous conspiracies presented in the most direct non-subtle way possible and it just scares me...
"When the Zetas fill the skies...."
-
I have to laugh when I see fans write things like "I hope the whole album is super heavy!"
I just want the album to be good. A return to "heavy" doesn't mean it will be an interesting album. Shit, a Nickelback album could be described as heavy and features tons of riffs... and, well...

This is confusing. The thread is moving SLOWER now, even with actual information and things to talk about...

I highly recommend listening to the instrumental version of Cross Pollination. Hearing all of the things going on during the vocals is really amazing, especially the guitar.
