Live Gig Discussion (Sexy Ass Drone) III: Now with less Fabri
Captain Radiator replied to Furygirl's topic in Tours
MWAH would be cooler if Matt did the harmonica bits on the guitar, and Chris did the guitar parts on his bass. At the very least it would be more interesting... MWAH was really cool when they started doing it all those years ago -

dat slow plug in baby riff, it'll be an ambient song if they play it any slower. -
This has probably already been posted by many, but the "the greatest hunter will ssuurrviiiiiiiiive alooooooone" line is bloody amazing. Ed. Its probably my favourite vocal on the album. So forlorn.

Hahahah "“Revolt is among their most creative songs, a two-speed storm built on monumental riffs” – NME" NME in charge of useful descriptions.

I don't think he really knows what he wants at all! Edited by the department of redundancy department

One has to ask why on earth they didn't just carry on playing noisy Handler-style things for the final 3 minutes instead of a safe piano ballad. I think it would have fitted the theme just as well... Heck, since its basically the "prechorus" of Helsinki Jam why not just carry it on into the main body of the jam, the heavy plugged notes would have been awesome. It would have been incredibly fun for them to play live too... There's nothing to lose!

Proper Fish Tier The Handler Reapers JFK/Defector Mackerel Tier The Globalist Dead Inside Psycho Drones Yellowbelly Tier Revolt Aftermath

Completely forgot to mention Aftermath. Its still a bit strange to me, would be a lot better without the strings and the other assorted background waffle I think.

So, after the ed. MY melodrama, the dust has settled. I had a break, listened to some other stuff, but over the last hour I listened to the album all the way through while playing War Thunder and actually really enjoyed it, even Revolt and Drones. The last section of Globalist still sounds too much like USoE for my liking but its ok. The first two sections are really good anyway. Listening to it just as another song, rather than a Muse song, Revolt's verses are pure hair metal 80's Bon Jovi style nonsense feat. Brian May but the chorus is pure 60's. Turns out the key to me enjoying this album is not pay tooo much attention! To be honest, The Globalist and Drones actually made me feel a little bit of the feels. I don't entirely know how, but they did.

You must have not been in this thread three hours ago XD

I wish I could ask you to PM me your edit without risking an infraction lol
-
Pretty much exactly what I just said lol. Fade it out as the piano comes in and it's perfect. Its the second best thing to having that bit carry on as full on rock till the end of the song.
-
Ahem. Isolated System has existed for 3 years now! Maybe sans 'lead guitar everywhere,' but you have the added bonus that there's no singing.
-
If you begin fading out The Globalist from 6.35 to 7.00 it sounds like a perfect closing track. Just a shame the piano doesn't resolve itself properly before the bit with the singing starts.
-
As I've previously said, I think its the best guitar work on the album. Its a lovely solo, absolutely lovely.
-
I don't see what many are saying, I think The Globalist riff fits perfectly. Just like the Reapers riff, it is just very very loud. Everything after it is what's weird and random and shoe-horned in out of nowhere. The song should have carried on in that vein for 4 more minutes. Why did they choose the other path

At least Muse are kind and gave you 10 minutes of The Globalist to allow your throat to recover from so many outbursts of laughing. Unless of course you were laughing all the way through, in which case, fuck, you should enter a competition
-
Revolt sounds really strange, its like Queen and One Direction and The Darkness got mashed in a blender. I can see why people like it though. Its just not my cup of tea at all. Considering at the moment I'm listening to pretty much nothing but Oceansize and 65DOS I hope you'll understand where I'm coming from. Chorus is pure radio pop rock though. It could do really well as a single. The kickkickkick-snare-kickkickkick-snare- drums in the last part of the chorus, whatever that is called, is good though. That drumming pattern could be really good in any song.
-
The Defector solo is definitely the best bit of guitar on the album. Ok, time for Revolt, round 2. Lets see if I think its just as horrible this time round.

Maybe some people think differently to you. Maybe you think differently to these people. Is this really so hard to grasp?

Its a bit clunky but I'm determined to make United States of Explorers a thing.

I'd like to hear your reasoning here, actually
