HCM drags on a little in the middle bit. But it's worth it because the end is wicked.
-
That being said, I'd still freak if I heard it live, just for sake of a setlist change. :LOL: I'm desperate...
-
I never liked MKU.
-
YES. why did I never think of this??
-
Yeah, I can hear that.
-
I think SHA is actually a "Musey" sounding song. In a good way. If that makes sense.
-
So you meant taste only. Okay. *phew*
-
Oh, and Blackout >>> Exogenesis
-
No, but I think musically it's a better song. If that makes sense. TSP I like. But it's average.

I have to say, I'm impreesed with how much OoS/Absolution stuff Dom could play all in a row. Some of the heavy work on those are brutal. (I've done a few set covers. )
-
Okay, listen, I'm not moaning over it because they're rushing. I'm just pointing out that "back in the day" Muse's sense of tempo sucked. See post about Space Dementia.

I watched the DVD earlier and decided it's not as distracting when you're watching the performance itself. But just listening to it, while doing something else, it's distracting. One example of this is Space Dementia, when Matt's playing the "intro" right before where the drums and then the vocals come in... It's ridiculously fast and you can hear the struggle between Dom and Matt, Matt rushing the crap out of it and Dom trying to pull it back in the eighth notes. It leaves the song feeling rushed and a little bit... empty? Agitated is also rushed, but that's a song that it actually works in, if you know what I mean. It's an angry song lol. I think I'm distracted by it because I play some classical music and I'm in the marching band, so tempo is a focus. I'm not trying to really pick on it as much as I have been.
-
I'm not that close-minded in music. I listen to alllll sorts of music, and I also play music. Tempo is a big deal to me personally, but you being in a band would have you thinking differently. But, the listener and the performer are going to feel differently, especially in a live recording after the fact. No amount of arguing is going to make me think they had good tempo at Hullabaloo.
-
I'm not saying they're the only band who does it, or there's no reason for it... Just some of the tempos from the early live stuff are really bad. Listen to Hullabaloo and tell me it's not bad.
-
Day 2, already seeing this. Maybe I've really overplayed??
-
I'm going to take a break from Muse and listen to different music. And when I get back to Muse, it will be good.
-
I think the only part of Muse that's lacking right now is the emotion. And I think that might be the most important part.

Half the time you couldn't understand anything with the distortion. But that's just a taste thing, I guess. Sunburn had some cringe-worthy rushing on Matt's part, and the New Born tempo change (piano->guitar) was also bad at the start, as its always been...
