I'm so disappointed that the Making Of was so short. Something I really look forward to watching with each new Muse album. Maybe if it hadn't have leaked months ago it wouldn't be so bad.
The live stuff is cool, but as other people have said, would be even better with all the rare stuff they played on that tour.
Bit of a shame really.
-
I gotta honest, I don't get the whole 'Hoodoo hoo-ha'! Drones and BH&R are on the same level for me. Quite similar in some respects in terms of track quality.
-
Double meaning or not, the lyrics on the album are mostly awful.
Nowhere close to as bad as The 2nd Law, IMO.
-
What double meaning? Oh so you buy Matt's bullshit that the song has a personal meaning too because he uses the word 'babe'.
I listened to the song again listening out for the alternative meaning. It's definitely there.
-
They seemed really happy to be rehearsing/working out the songs together as a band before recording. It seems likely they'll do this with their next album too, which would be great.
-
Have people listened to the XFM track-by-track interview?
Some great info in there!
A few notable points:
- Revolt was originally written on piano and made to sound like a musical.
- Psycho was about 2 mins long but Mutt wanted them to jam out the song so it was longer.
- Matt says 'babe' in Reapers so that the lyrics can be related to both relationships and actual drone warfare.
- Aftermath was written with Mutt's music taste in mind.
-Dom cut his sleeves on his jumpsuit because he wanted to show off his biceps.

Whatever floats your boat mate...Some of these would go in my worst, quite honestly. I realized you weren't joking when I saw USoE which actually has a memorable piano part. Also, I reckon you are the true champion of Big Freeze on this board. I'll give you props for unapologetically putting your unpopular opinion out there.I think they were being sarcastic, bud.
-
iTunes versions were definitely different from the leak. They've supposedly been mastered separately anyway.
-
like a terrible version of Ex Machina
It's weird, it's like Muse didn't try to make a film.
-
Shame it's for such a wank song.
It's fine! It's hardly offensive.
-
First half-decent video in years.
-
-
This discussion is getting too abstract. Maybe you guys should just play pianos.
That's coz Fabri is back.
-
This song is greaaaat! I never want to put it on but when it comes up I just wanna dance and yell 'YOU CAN REVOOOLT'.
It lifts my mood so much as well. Haha!
-
Whenever I go to listen to the album now I start at Reapers, haha! I've definitely over listened the first 3 tracks.
Fuck me, though. This is a great album. Hopefully we'll get more Reapers/Handler style/quality tracks on the next one!
EDIT: Is this the most marmite Muse album yet?
-
Unsustainable is better than half the songs on this album.
Go home Fabri, you're drunk.
-
The brief Graham Norton interview was quite funny. Graham mentioned they said that this album was 'their best ever' and Matt replied saying 'The last six albums were just a longwinded foreplay.'
Was hilarious.
-
Drones is a great album for me, especially after T2L.
I can actually listen to the album in order from start to finish without wanting to skip anything. First time since BH&R.
Reapers and The Handler are incredible. I enjoy Revolt, Dead Inside and Mercy. Defector, Psycho and The Globalist are also great. Aftermath and Drones are the only real ones I could live without, but even so, they're good pieces of music and have grown on me a lot.
Fabri says it's the worst album. That means nothing. For me it's their best and most focused work since BH&R (or maybe even Abso).
Also, welcome back Fabri.
-
It's not weird, it's different enough to not warrant a lawsuit because of chord progressions and different whistling patterns. Matt acknowledged in an interview it's a nod to Ennio but nothing more
Ahh, fair enough. I was under the impression it was a cover as I haven't really listened to the actual Ennio track more than once.
-
Yeah, check this out
Oh wow, love all of them! So much more inspired than everything from TR and T2L!
EDIT: The Drones (song) one is my favourite.
EDIT 2: No credit for Ennio Moricone given... Weird.
-
Live video from Exeter soundcheck can be found on Vimeo now! I guess I can't post a link.
-
Can't get it out my head. I love it.
-
I think we had rubbish quality maybe? The sounds in this is vastly improved to what I was hearing before. It's much less muddy and tuneless somehow
Yeah, it seems louder and heavier to me...
