  1. This song is like a lot of Muse somgs for me on the first listen. I wasn't even sure how to follow along. But it definitely draws me in by the middle of the song.

     

    After playing it on the road with good car stereo, I like it. A lot. It's different. But it has plenty of elements I love about Muse.

     

    For those saying it is too layered... fair enough. But I like it this way. It starts off slow and builds into a lot of sound that beings me back to 90's videogame nostalgia. The organ perfectly reminds me of NHL94, and the whole thing is like Donkey Kong Country's soundtrack. I personally think the robotic "Huuu-mannnn" fits perfectly.

     

    Not sure I can put this song in my top50 Muse songs, but I like it. Interested to see how they'll play it live.

  2. I'll let you off for that since you've only seen GL once, but trust me, it sounds the same every time. There's no such thing as a better or worse performance of it.

     

     

    Well, in Indiana 2011, Matt sung "Crushed, lost..." instead of "Lost, crushed..."

     

    Such a huge difference :LOL:

  3. My favorite version of SS is the one from SXSW. Brilliant performance and I like the mix. Good improvs snuck in the song that I haven't heard in any other versions.

     

     

     

    My favorite performance of Unnatural Selection... the guitar and vocals in the breakdown especially.

    IMO the most intense version, and my favorite MK Ultra:

    And as much as people hate this Neutron Star Collision, it actually sounded quite beefy good here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99hFw0u2XlA&t=8m43s

  5. I just watched all of Rock AM Ring 2010 and I have to say that was just an amazing gig overall.. even the songs I don't really care much for sounded awesome.. the ending to Hysteria Matt played was pure awesome.

     

     

    Definitely the most awesome Hysteria ending ever (although I think everyone is quite sick of Back in Black at this point... even if it does flow almost perfectly)

  6. Hysteria, Britts 2004, pure epic performance:

     

    KoC, Shepherds Bush... drumming sounds amazing, and that space dementia outro... i miss it:

     

    KoC, MSG 2010 (my biased pick... i was there... but he nailed his bluesy outro better than i've seen elsewhere):

     

    Supermassive Black Hole Shepherds Bush... EASY CHOICE for me... I wish they played it with this intensity these days, and Matt screaming needs to come back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1upkp14drH0

     

    Invincible... HAARP night 1 (cd version)... or Shepherds Bush (seeing a trend?)

     

    Guiding Light... Nassau Coliseum (maybe I am biased, but I do believe this is the first time he sung the entire time during the solo like in the album... and it sounded awesome):

     

    Citizen Erased: Wembley September 11 2010, NO DOUBT IN MY MIND. And I felt this way before I got to hear the official recording, but that confirmed it. Sounds brilliant in my car stereo, too.

     

    Dead Star: V-Fest 2008. I love the guitar in this version, and the new synth kicks ass. It really made me want to hear it live.

     

    MK Ultra @ Staples Center September 2010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbu6HmZ4LIw

     

    NSC... @Staples Center September 2010 (sounded WAY better than at Wembley... I actually liked it... a LOT.)

     

    Bliss, Wembley 2010 (I really like the old versions of Bliss, yes, but this was a perfect performance, with extended intro AND outro, and flawlessly done in my mind.)

     

    Starlight... Shepherds Bush again (sounds SO GOOD):

     

    Muscle Museum... Glasto 2004

     

    City of Delusion... Seattle 2007... pretty sure he is playing the trumpet part on guitar!:

    (there is a FANTASTIC audio bootleg that does it more justice)

     

    Apocalypse Please, Wembley 2007.
