What songs doesn't Matt use his falsetto in?
frozenbanana replied to Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out's topic in Songs & Releases
The thing is, Matt used to swamp his vocals (especially the falsettos) in tonnes and tonnes of distortion, which I think often disguises any thin voice or strain and generally makes him sound more epic and intense. Nowadays he uses far less of it. -
Glorious > Crying Shame > Many, many songs > Easily Also, OOS is definitely overrated. It's also weaker than BH&R.

If you could redo a song, how would you do it?
frozenbanana replied to HystericHandler's topic in Songs & Releases
Where to begin? Aftermath - redo the first and last lines, cut the shit guitar solo and the "we've gone against the tide section", make some of the last chorus instrumental (so there's a Blackout-style guitar thing going on) SS - the last chorus features a guitar in the right channel of my headphones that drops out randomly seconds in. Annoys me every time, it should stay B&H - the record version should have the guitars CoD - have something else going on instead of the same intro and verse melody over and over again. Maybe an extended or modified solo. Psycho - shorten the intro, cut out the guitar breakdown before the third chorus etc. Dead Star - put the scratchy guitar stuff from Download 2015 in the verses Bliss - falsetto background vocals (like at the end of Megalomania) in the background for the final chorus The Globalist - trumpets instead of whistling, and make the slide guitar sound not like it was recorded on someone's phone in an echoey room Survival - less choir plz Unsustainable - make the middle section different from the opening orchestral stuff and have a more interesting 2nd "dubstep" section etc. etc. -
Some pretty melodramatic responses to this song on here, but then again I know how badly I react to MK Ultra so fair enough. To me this isn't that bad a song and it certainly didn't/shouldn't ruin the album as a whole. If the chorus had heavier guitars and lost those queen vocals then it would be miles better, but the verses are a lot of fun and Matt's vocal delivery is great. Aftermath is just as cheesy but Matt's vocals are absolutely rubbish (especially the first and last lines of the whole thing) and the guitar solo's terrible. Definitely the weakest for me.

Best Live Performance of any one song
frozenbanana replied to Alistair Hay's topic in Songs & Releases
I watched this performance a few days ago and it made me kinda sad. Apart from the drums, I think it's a sub par effort that benefits from an amazing mix (Roskilde was a better 2015 performance imho). Matt's all over the place in the choruses nowadays, which are ruined anyway by Chris' backing vocals.- 2,965 replies

They hit a very good formula with Rock Werchter, so it's a shame they didn't really replicate that again. They could have even gone for something like: Psycho Supermassive Black Hole The Handler Rarity (Micro Cuts / Assassin / The Groove / Uno) Plug In Baby / Bliss Dead Inside Interlude Hysteria Munich Jam Supremacy Citizen Erased Apocalypse Please Time Is Running Out Mercy Reapers Stockholm Syndrome Enc: Uprising Starlight Knights of Cydonia

Supremacy would be so much better in the set if instead of that final Bond-esque chord, they just went straight into CE.

I don't notice it too much, except in the Reapers live chorus (where he tries to do it, but doesn't even make it to the note and ends up sounding flat) This performance contains one of his most obvious examples of sliding up to a note in the final chorus, and it sounds absolutely epic: .. but I appreciate that's not quite the same as what you're talking about.
