I doubt Survival is gonna make a return unless fans request it heavily.
-
It's okay, I'm just a bit grumpy because I've got a deadline at midnight.
-
I’m well aware.
-
Matt sounds better when he gets plenty of rest between gigs. Not that strange.
-
Don’t think so. I mean only by fans.
-
I definitely think that setlists and deep cuts matter a lot when it comes to people who actually buy the releases. I honestly think that Zepp as a live release would have sold much more than Rome.
-
Honestly I had no idea what to write. They were clearly so uplifted by their genius work that nothing could bring them down.
-
top quality memes from reddit who just learned that you can edit setlists to say whatever you want Update:
-
No. I doubt that Matt would say “that was from our upcoming song The dark side” and I doubt he would write it on the setlist, so how exactly would anyone know it was that song?
-
To be fair the song wasn't THAT relevant in 2003 before the meme.
-
I mean there were people who thought that songs like Stockholm Syndrome were an attempt to be more mainstream and polished.
-
Is it really that hard to understand? It's a love ballad by a band that by the time were famous for alternative rock with prog-tendencies. Rock fans in general aren't as varied in their taste as they like to think.
-
You'll be glad to hear that that was pretty much what most [of the vocal] people on here felt as well. Matt's lyrics have [mostly] gone to complete shit and the lack of subtlety was definitely something a lot of people mocked the band for, even outside the fandom. I mean just look at that cover... Apparently Mutt, the producer of Drones, actually told Matt to dumb down the lyrics. EDIT: Here are some relevant reflections from people http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?p=11706329#post11706329

Controversial opinion: The people who love Thought Contagion would adore most of the Mania songs if they had Muse's name on them.
-
And when the tracklist is revealed, I'll be sure to quote Matt on how the Drones Tour was supposed to represent the heavier side of the band.
-
Most of that applies to TC imo. I mean TC was specifically bashed quite a lot for the lack of guitars that sound like guitars, was it not? And pandering by trying to fuse modern rock with top 40 influences? Isn't that exactly what Matt has said he wanted to do? And overdone vocals...well... You keep comparing TC to one song that doesn't really sound anything like the rest of Mania though, bland as the album may be.
-
Don’t see what would make TC any better.
-
Is it though?
-
Which is exactly why some of us are still here I'm not sure what you're trying to say though to be honest
-
The only place you see those kinds of comments is Facebook though. And yes, I demand more than 6/10 albums from any artist I listen to. It can't really be "too" demanding though. If I don't like something, that's not gonna change just because I was a fan of a band's earlier work *shrug*
-
Reddit is decent imo. I hear people complaining that it downvotes anything negative as well anything positive, depending on who you ask. In reality it totally depends on who’s online at the moment. But I hate the whole voting system in general. Oh and the memes are absolutely terrible.
-
Eh, there was loads of hate for both Dig Down and Thought Contagion on most places, including Facebook, YouTube AND Reddit. But yet you come here? Why?
-
If you turn to 30STM to save the year in music you’re already doing it wrong if you ask me
-
I definitely think they’re doing it because of long-term exposure. I just don’t think it’s a good thing. If anything it just makes people bored of them.
-
Yeah that was basically my point.
