    Well, we don't 100% know. We're trusting sources. If it turns out to be a fib, I'm losing what little hope and trust I have left in my soul.
  2. Jobby
    Pretty sure the guy confirmed at the time that the surprise wasn't related to gigs/tours.
  3. Jobby
    Probably infinitely more entertaining than the actual video. Psycho and Dead Inside were a double A-side but that's not an unrealistic shout I guess. Might not make too much sense with the album coming out so soon though.
  4. Jobby
    Psycho UK Tour literally a couple of months ago, like someone else said.

    Reapers could quite easily be put out with no announcement considering it won't be a 'proper' single intended for radio play. It'd just be an extra promo thing to get fans hyped during the final run-up to release.

    Rockavaria (festival gig). also reapers
  7. Jobby
    Doubt it, probably 1hr30. Maybe 1hr45.

    Nope, wouldn't really make any sense. Releasing a DVD from the last album when you're trying to promote the new album? Plus, Live At Rome already sold like shit so releasing a second DVD from the same era would just be stupid.

    If they stripped back some of the unnecessary, distracting production, focused more and their performance and dropped some of the boring songs (or reinvigorated them and played them with some energy instead of just going through the motions) they could still be in with a shout at best live band. Manchester Academy was the best gig I've ever been to (bar Leeds Fest '11, but that was for sentimental reasons) 'cause it was just the band and the fans having fun, no extra frills.

    I don't think I'll be let down by it. I really like the fundamental components of the song (the chorus melody, the lyrics, the pre-chorus riff, the tapping sections) which will all be pretty much the same. It's obviously not gonna sound as heavy or beefy as it is live, especially the outro, but that's only natural really so it's to be expected. The only things I'm hoping for that might change are the solo, the robot vocoder bits (which have actually been confirmed, iirc?) and the distorted 'Drones!' voice during the pre-choruses.

    It's at quite an awkward rhythm to play, Matt comes in at quite a random time on the studio version. I don't really notice or blame him when it changes live, I expected it to happen when I first heard the song. I rarely time it exactly right when I play it.

    Couple of apparently reliable inside sources (assuming that the journalist and Jessica's friend are different people?) have said Reapers is set to release on Friday. I'm assuming it'll be as a sort if promo/fan service thing like Psycho as opposed to a 'proper' single.
  13. Jobby
    That'd be great, I'll be out shopping all day so I'd probs miss it otherwise. I'm thinking around 5-7pm UK time though, unfortunately (for me) I'm wondering how they'll release it, just audio or maybe a lyric video? The latter would be decent.
  14. Jobby
    Lots of things have been/will have been recorded this year though so expecting Hyper Music is a bit unfounded. It'd be pretty meh if it was that anyway imo.
  15. Jobby
    I stopped caring about reviews after the first few, I just want the album at this point. Reapers tomorrow should help sate me. hhhhhnnnnngtomorrow (That shit better happen.)
  16. Jobby
    Don't see why not.

    The transition into Psycho was good but it could easily be done with just about any Drop-D Muse song, like Stockholm. I just feel like a good opener needs to be quite grand and give that feeling of "We're here, bitches." Reapers isn't really that kind of song imo.
  18. Jobby
    Stockholm > Psycho would be a better opening couple than Reapers > Psycho imo. Reapers is a great tune but it's not an opener.
  19. Jobby
    I thought Reapers was this Friday?

    Mercy

    It looks considerably better than Starlight live so I'd be happy for it to replace that. Still find the chorus on the studio version to be boring/annoying as fuck though.
  21. Jobby
    cuz we're worth it bb

    Also apparently it isn't that 'BIG', he said he feels bad for maybe building people's expectation up too much I'm guessing a music video and maybe a Q&A.
  23. Jobby
    I'm actually gonna go out on a limb and say Psycho's the best opener they've used since TAB (excluding one-offs like New Born, which was just perf at L/R '11).
  24. Jobby
    Might seem weak through videos but it's pretty beefy and fun when you're actually there, drags on for a bit though. As for videos though, aside from the vocals, Big Weekend was pretty good.
  25. Jobby
    He tends to play the open D-string or let it ring during a lot of the build-up to the big riff in Reapers, which is sort of the same thing he does in the first few seconds of Yes Please, similar rhythm too. Other than that though, the two have different chords (Matt plays seemingly pretty random ones during Reapers).
