  1. A loooong time since posting here, and I've never been that much into doing album reviews. Also a loooong time since I found an album immediately this much catchy - had to listen to it twice in a row already the first time, so here I am 10+ playthroughs later, giving my 2 cents... WOTP - at the moment one of my least favourites on the album: the music itself works for me, but lyrics, or actually more the .. melody? the "willofthewillofthewill" -part, you know what I mean... irritates me pretty much to no end. Compliance - works for me quite well, but can also see why some people don't like it as much... But I'm proud to like it! Liberation - Queen much, eh? 😂Still a great great piece -- and as someone (kueller it was) stated, it might've been even better, with .. something more added to it. Anyway, a great one already as it stands! WSD - catchy, good tune, good heavier stuff - perhaps it being the first release out of the album, it's already a bit "worn out" (even though I haven't listened to it that much) but I still like it as well. Ghosts - oooh ooooh oooooh so god damn beautiful song and sad song and sending shivers down my spine, 😭/😍simultaneously. Just. Love. It. ❀ Halloween - tongue so deep in the cheek that you start to worry it pops through đŸ€Ł Lol, anyway, can see this one working as a definite party-starter on live gigs! (Also kinda reminds me of the band Ghost and their stuff - which I also happen to like) Kill Or Be Killed - definitely my current favourite of the "heavy" songs on the album! Verona - ahh this one is also right there, beautiful, not as minimalistic as Ghosts, but definitely a lovely tune ❀ (I guess I'm growing old as I find myself liking the ballad-y songs more and more 😅) Euphoria - great pop-Muse track! I find myself liking this more and more after each playthrough WAFF - one big 🖕-- that works like a charm! Just listening to it as I'm here finishing - started to think whether this would work live with the verses sped up in tempo a bit? Or would it just become too big of a chaos 😂 To summarize: a great album, currently only WOTP being more in the "ehhh dunno" category for me. And pretty much every other piece being at least in the "liked" category, if not even "loved" (at least Ghosts, Kill Or Be Killed, Verona, Euphoria and WAFF out there for me) It was definitely a good thing that Muse kept the album length at 10 tracks and under 40 minutes - it's a tight package, and as stated probably a million times here already, the lows aren't that low either, and the highs being so high (and way outnumbering the lows) makes it a solid album. For me, the first Muse album since BH&R feeling this solid ❀
  2. Yeah.. for me (shipping to Finland) it would be something like this: deluxe cd: 17,99€ + 14,99€ standard / 26,50€ courier = 32,98€ / 44,49€ vinyl: 20,99€ + 12,49€ standard / 27,49€ courier = 33,48€ / 48,48€ super deluxe set: 61,99€ + 34€ courier = 95,99€€ Pretty steep postages, I'd say Pretty much the only reason to pre-order via Muse shop would be the "early access to tour tickets", whatever that means, IF the old-style messageboard pre-sales doesn't exist any longer. If only I could be sure that the old pre-sales exists, I could happily pre-order via local music store, and save pretty much all the postages...
  3. Btw, does anyone have any idea about tomorrow's schedule? Doors are at 18:30, but what about showtimes? Probably something like The New Regime at 19:15 and Muse at 20:45?
  4. Tomorrow! Almost can't wait for it.. Perhaps it's time for some Muse-only playlist today and tomorrow, to warm up...
  5. Yeah, it didn't work. You had to click the "Choose best available seats" ("Valitse parhaat paikat" or something like that) above the seating map, and then you could choose either "best available" from the whole lot (standing, seating, whatnot), OR specify the category (standing, section Axx etc) from which you want the "best" places - and there you could indeed pick standing places as well. Yep, pretty crappy stuff...
  6. I also managed to get standing tickets - and yeah, seems that the pre-sale standing ticket quota wasn't that high to start with... Good luck for Monday to all of you that didn't manage to get standing tickets today!
