This is the only song left that I'm still having trouble digesting. It sticks out so much! Probably would have been better left as a b-side.
b for bin

lyrics are the best part. probably the best on the album.

The Globalist is one song where I find Matt really digs further into the subject. It's not profound writing, but it covers the motives and conflicts of the human side of it all. All the lyrics at that level (at the least) could have made for something closer to the actual game changer we joked about.
I hold what I said back at Psycho's release that it's more disappointing when it's a topic that I care about and find more important, rather than something ridiculous like The 2nd Law's premise.
thank you.

That feel when, like, that's just like your opinion man. Drones killing people/being controlled isn't that complicated
It is very much so. It's not just about some semi automated machines killing people. It's about the state of not being in charge and loosing control over your own destiny. It's about the loneliness associated with this state and the love/hate paradox that both initiates it and is caused by it. I can clearly see the intention of multilayered meanings and feelings which is what makes me really sad as I really like the idea and intention behind this 'narrative'. But unfortunately unimaginative and cliche lyrics have ruined it.

Don't you think GL, NSC jokes are getting a little old?
-
if the solo was shorter and a bit more creative this would have easily become my favourite Muse song.
-
but why do you need depth? why cant a song just be for enjoyment?
twist and shout doesnt have any depth and if it had depth it would make it a worse song
because when you label your album with a rather complicated concept, some level of depth is the least you should offer. why is this so hard for some people to understand?

I was thinking, they said they lost money with the last tour, maybe is because of that they are changing the touring routine.
Maybe they want to start with festivals this time to secure some cash and expend it later in flashy lights and deathly explosives in arenas and stadiums.
I doubt they're getting more cash in a festival than their sellout shows in europe. it's just the timing. because they're doing all these festivals it doesn't make sense to start with europe.

you guys are over processing it. I think it's simply the story of the opposite side (of the protagonist) infused with strong feeling of loneliness. To me there's more link with MOTP than it is to CE.

you got SOHOHOHOUL.
-
most of the questions were pretty stupid though.
-
Something along the lines of it was going to be all out rock or something
I'm pretty sure he said somewhere second half was gonna be "hits"
-
So do I as a song, by miles!
I just think that the his guitars are really well produced on Defector
no I mean the guitar tones as well. Defector's solo tone bothers me a bit.
-
I very much like Mercy. I don't have any problem with "pop and catchy" I remember first time I heard UD, Madness and Follow Me my impression was "I don't like them a lot but they are still pretty solid tracks' Revolt is just weak no matter which angel I look at it from. If it was done with the same production and arrangement as whats on charts and sung by Bruno Mars or someone like that it might have been better.
-
The guitar sounds MEGA on Defector. Love it or hate it, you can't deny that Matt's guitars have never sounded better!
I prefer Handler.
-
I'd definitely go if I didn't have to go to bloody New York. It'll probably be the best setlist they've done so far and will do in the future.
-
Charles is coming to Devon!
-
seems like Download's gonna be one I'll regret missing out on.
-
Just add the end of Reapers to it!
even that's not gonna save it. it needs to be considered again.
-
penis joke? really?
-
So you'd be okay with Muse just giving up playing live at all for their 8th album?
with a fifth person (2nd morgan) they can achieve a lot. (not that I'd like to see them going down that direction)
-
Alright I won't let this go to waste. I'm writing a whole song based on the riff. it's starting to sound a bit like a combination of Assassin, SS and AP so far.
-
Now that you guys have sat with the album for a little while, how would you rank it among the other albums? I ask because I've decided to wait for it to come to my house.go to any page. you'll see lots of >s and >>>s all over the place!

If you remember that a band doesn't write music for its fans it's completely logical: they haven't written songs like aftermath and revolt before. They also want to explore different sides. I don't think these songs are 'beneath' their capabilities (aftermath is really good), and even Drones is musically very well written. It might just not be what you wanted it to be, or what you prefer to hear.
I don't have problem with different sides. I still support TR and T2L. My problem with the second half is not its different side. it's just boring and both musically and lyrically terrible.
