*clap clap clap* definitely sounds plausible and interesting

Invincible unless New Born live is included...

I keep singing "You've got the CIA bae" and I have no idea why.

Anyone got a vid or something of Matt falling over at the beginning of Psycho?

Finally listened to it on Monday (even though the leak was available). All are just my own opinons.
Dead Inside: I like it. Great single track and pretty dark theme. LOVE Matt's vocals in the second half. 7/10
[Drill Sergeant]: I don't think this really needs to be rated, but I have no problems with it. Totally goes well with 'Psycho'. N/A
Psycho: Great intro/riff. Drags a bit, though, and it's very static and repetitive. But a good ol' solid rock song, nonetheless, and really got me psyched for the album. 7/10
Mercy: Nice, classic Muse pop song and can't help but sing along. Not one of my faves, but not one of my least faves either. 6.5/10
Reapers: This is one of my favourites from the album. The way it flows between the sections really does it for me. The solo, though, does seem a little out of place - as if Matt's been forced to shove it in there. Still love it! 9/10
The Handler: Ahhh, The Handler. It's hard to find anything wrong with this song. It's just a monster of a track and really gets to the point of the album's concept. Maybe the instrumental bit goes on a bit too long? I'm not really too fussed by that, mind you. 10/10
[JFK]: Again, I don't really think it needs a rating. I like it - the classic speech works well in the album. N/A
Defector: A nice punchy number. I feel that there's been a massive weight lifted on this song. Although, on the first listen through, I did wonder "what the hell" as it seemed a little all over the place but it has grown on me a lot and totally accept the idea of it. Can't help but hear "you've got a pwoblem" and "you can't contwol me" which I still find hilarious. Okay song so... 6/10
Revolt: The 'Big Freeze' or 'Guiding Light' of the album for me. The lyrics "you've got strength, you've got soul" just give a serious 'The Killers' feel. The chorus music is okay, but the transition between that and the verses seem too poppy. Not very impressed, to be honest. 5/10
Aftermath: Beautiful. One of my faves. I actually cannot get enough of it, the music is class and the lyrics are so uplifting. Best Muse ballad in my books. 9/10
The Globalist: I'm impressed. Although it's pretty much what I expected from a song already shown as 10minutes long. I see three sections, the calm before the storm, then into the storm, followed by a conclusion. Not amazing, but certainly not bad. 7.5/10
Drones: Seriously, what the hell? To me, it's as if:
Matt: "oh crap, we've only done 9 songs...quick what else have we got?"
Mutt: "aww mate, we have some silly three minute thing that you did, Matt, whilst pissing around mate?"
Matt: "yeah that'll do - shove that at the end."
I respect it but I would totally get it if it were a 30second thing at the end of 'The Globalist' but it just seems like a waste of what could've been another actual song. 2/10
I like the album - the themes and the music are class. Just some of it is a bit of a let down. Overall: 7.5/10

Good call on this! Will do once I've listened tonight
-
so any info when the people who bought the digital version on the .mu shop get their download for drones?
You'll most likely get a code on release day.

Am I the only one waiting to listen on release day?!
-
Still not listened to anything past The Handler yet. Can't believe I've made it this long...
Anyone had any shipping confirmation for their .mu store orders yet? I've had nothing so far. I was hoping to get it early too...
Also, Kerrang have given Drones a perfect score in their review, apparently: http://www.metacritic.com/music/drones/muse
Same! *high 5*
And yes, got my confirmation too - AAAAHHHH!!!
-
All I have to say is "you can't bwainwash me, you've got a pwoblem"
-
Did we just go back in time?
Huh? Don't know what you mean. But I hear T2L is going to be their best yet! I'm mostly looking forward to Big Freeze!
-
Couple of things, (1) I've decided to be all self-righteous and wait until I get an official physical copy and (2) does anyone know if the apparent "shipping error" caused anyone in the UK to get their copies early?
-
You know what. I've been battling hard not to and I've decided that I'm going to wait and listen to the album as intended.
I'm being all self-righteous now.
-
Know if anyone in the UK got it early? I'm probably going to wait for it - would be a nice surprise though!
-
I'M dead. I've slept for 3 hours past 3 days. Is that link on 4ch true, or it's bullcrap fake?((
It's called "Jenny Death" or something - I wouldn't touch it
-
This seems appropriate in the meantime as background music
Haha! Brilliant! Who needs a new album eh?
-
Makes no difference - you're still sharing something that you don't have permission to share
I meant for the people listening.
-
In fairness, I'm not sure I would wanna be the first one to leak it either. Not saying I wont listen to a leak and enjoy it but whoever does release it first is going to unavoidably cost the band some income and may even incur criminal charges.
Unless you've already preordered - you've already paid for the album...
-
This thread right now!
I'm still holding off until release day, no leaks for me!
Pahahahahahaha!!! :LOL:

You will
Burrrnnn in hell?

You're cringe
Burrrnnnnn
