  1. No, the final tracks are different. E.g. The iTunes version of Mercy has much less clipping than the MP3 from Warner. https://www.apple.com/itunes/mastered-for-itunes/docs/mastered_for_itunes.pdf Those are Apple's guidelines on mastering for iTunes
  2. I took the leaked version and today's release into some audio editing software. After inverting one of them and playing them together, all I hear is silence. So the audio is 100% identical. Not that I thought it'd be any different anyway
  3. Dunno if anyone has posted this but this practically confirms that it's Mercy on Monday, just in case there was any doubt from the lack of an official announcement: https://redeem.warnerartists.com/html/muse/mercyhd/
  4. It isn't entirely uncommon for that to happen in concept albums. In The Wall: "In The Flesh?" is reprised in the second half of the album and starts with the same melodies and instrumentation. The riff from Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 2 is played again in the build up of Waiting For The Worms. And there're probably more examples from that album but I can't think of any off the top of my head. You're probably right, but I still think it's plausible.
  5. Has anyone considered that the Instagram clip believed to be from Reapers (because of the riff) might actually be from a different song? The shouting/chanting of "Drones" just doesn't seem to fit with the dark atmosphere of the song; the distorted voice from Chris seems to fit much better. So perhaps the clip is from a later song (maybe Revolt or Drones) and it's a reprise of the theme but instead with all the defectors shouting in unison, proclaiming victory over the Drones. Disclaimer: probably wrong, but I miss all the baseless speculation
