    I'm grateful to all the people that record because I get to live vicariously through them.

    With the backlash over the "loudness war" and vinyl records regaining popularity, it seems there is a growing number of music fans that are paying much closer attention to audio quality. Remasters of classic albums also seem to be very prominent recently. With that in mind, would you ever consider remastering some of your albums in the future?

    You didn't have to do that! I was just being nit-picky.

    I'm a low-functioning bot. That's a good idea, thanks. Edit: Someone beat me to it, though I wish their question would've mentioned the whole loudness war thing.
  5. Tesseract
    <3 I can never think of questions for these types of things. I think everyone has asked all the good ones by now.
  6. Tesseract
    I just assume most people on the internet are high-functioning bots or low-functioning humans.

    I like lists. At the moment I guess it's: Muscle Museum Citizen Erased Stockholm Syndrome Hoodoo Overture Animals The Handler

    Now that the NA part of the tour is over, what are the best performances of Drones songs so far? Or just best performances of the tour in general (regardless of album)?

    Funny I think that Fury line is one of my favorite Muse lyrics. Genuinely surprised people don't like it. Silliest line for me is "Your belly is all yellow."
  10. Tesseract
    Thanks, that was really cool!

    Oh how I wish I could hear Fury live one day. I've literally dreamt about it, haha. And wow I'm glad I'm not part of that mess anymore. I haven't had Facebook for several months and I think I'm better off for it!

    Haven't been following Muse much at all this tour, did they really drop Stockholm Syndrome completely?? Mostly glad I didn't get a ticket, although it would've been cool to see The Handler and The Globalist live.

    Yeah that's pretty lame of them. This is the first tour since my first gig in 2009 that I'll miss, sadly. I just can't justify the price at the moment, especially because the set lists have looked really uninspired. If Webster Hall was the last time I see Muse (hopefully not), then it was a good show to go out on I guess. Is Musers on Facebook still a thing?

    Hey there, long time no chat. Just decided to browse the board again for the first time in forever, thought I would say hi. :)

    He's saying OoS in full at Reading & Leeds was a better setlist.
  16. Tesseract
    Munich Jam was in between, as well.
  17. Tesseract
    I don't find any lyrics on Absolution embarrassing. It's my favorite lyrically by far.

    They supposedly give more weight to certain review sources when figuring out an overall score, but that's just something I've read elsewhere so maybe it's just a rumor. And yeah of course, but Metacritic just makes it a lot easier. Though some game reviewing sites are starting to discontinue review scores, which is a trend I wouldn't mind seeing in movies/music.
  19. Tesseract
    There's also the weighting that they give to some reviews over others, and the fact that a 3/5 on one site is not necessarily equivalent to a 60/100 on another site. I also dislike Metacritic because it encourages way too much focus on the score, to the point where some game developers' jobs have depended on getting above a certain threshold on Metacritic.
  20. Tesseract
    Not really sure. I remember reading about the process before but I think Metacritic keep their algorithm a secret.
  21. Tesseract
    Honestly the sooner Metacritic dies the better. They take a bunch of reviews, use some algorithm to assign numerical scores where there are none originally, and then use that to come up with a "consensus." I wish there was a music equivalent to Rotten Tomatoes--while their score doesn't necessarily tell you *how* good or bad a movie is, they incorporate many more reviews than Metacritic and can at least tell you if the consensus leans good or bad. It's not perfect, but a bit more useful I think.
  22. Tesseract
    But CoD->Hoodoo->KoC is such an amazing way to end the album.
  23. Tesseract
    That first one. While I wish people here didn't feel the need to be sarcastic all the time, you raise some valid points. I think some people get offended by bad reviews because those are the ones that tend to make assumptions/digs at Matt Bellamy as a person instead of just focusing on the music. So it causes people to overlook any good points that the reviewers might have actually made.
  24. Tesseract
    Well she wasn't wrong--responding to someone's post saying they need to call the "wah-mbulance" is pretty immature. I just don't think you would have called her out if she had been complaining about a positive review for being wrong. Or maybe I'm wrong and you were just sticking up for your friend. If so then my apologies.

    The Queen-esque vocal layering in Defector is probably my favorite instance of it in any Muse song. It sounds almost sinister, even though the song as a whole is uplifting.
