  1. My thoughts on this album:

     

    1. It's not BHR level but this album is good, Reapers and The Handler are the best songs they've done since.

    2. Pyscho has instantly become a live anthem, also Mercy is a great live song.

    3. Defector even though it's probably the shittest Muse song of all time i reckon it will be good live without those annoying vocals.

     

    I agree: Defector will be amazing live.

  2. Showbiz :

    Hate this & I'll love you

     

    Origin of Symmetry :

    Feeling Good

     

    Absolution :

    FAWY

     

    BH&R :

    Soldier's Poem

     

    The Resistance :

    IBTY (I'm french and I have understood the middle part is in french only two years after discovering the song. Very bad accent of Matt, he should improve the pronunciation of few words in French because in live it seems so artificial)

     

    The 2nd Law :

    Follow me (to heavy for me...)

     

    Drones :

    I don't know... Maybe Revolt or Drones, but I should listen more Drones to know

     

    So Matt does not speak French with a good accent.

    Interesting...

    IBTY is one of my favourite of The Resistance.

  3. Next steps:

     

    1. Some random Muser opts that they may also play The Globalist with an orchestra.

    2. Boardies get excited and think it's real because several people have now tweeted about it.

    3. Thousands stay home from work/stay up at night and install a VPN to watch a live stream.

    4. Only Mercy is played.

    5. Tom and the band get bombarded with angry tweets because Muse broke all their promises and owe us what we were expecting.

     

    6. Premiere of Defector confirmed

    :p

  4. Please no... :stunned: I would rather get an Assassin, Bliss, Dead Star or ever New Born for that (hoping for a Werchter type of setlist, but I think it's highly unlikely)

     

    Both festivals must get an awesome setlist, period. :LOL: But above all, a great time! :D

     

    I wish an awesome setlist for Portugal and....THE SETLIST for Bilbao.

    :p

  5. Uh what?

     

    1. Do you even know what Muse's roots are?

    2. Which other songs on the album sounds like Dead Inside? Psycho is obviously sonically quite similar to songs like The Handler, Reapers and the heavy part of The Globalist.

     

    And since you're obviously gonna disagree, let me save you the trouble of making a stupid post: Psycho is a 3-piece rock song based on a riff written back in 1999. Mercy is similar to Starlight and Stockholm Syndrome, and Matt specifically said the album sounded like something between Abso and BH&R. The Handler and Reapers are obviously typical Muse rock songs, and one of them even references lyrics to Showbiz. The Globalist is Matt's attempt at a prequel to a song written in 2001. Obviously most of us agreee they're not very similar, but it's clearly an attempt at returning to their roots.

     

    Revolt is a pop-rock track with some similarities to Showbiz

     

    Muse made it very clear from the start that it was about returning to their 3-piece based sound and going away from the synth- and orchestral dominated sound, which was exactly what they did.

     

    :LOL::LOL::LOL: Drones is basically a guitar-bass-drum album. Agreed

  6. My selection:

     

    Showbiz: Sunburn, Showbiz, Unintended

    OOS: PIB, Citizen erased, Bliss

    Absolution: Hysteria, TIRO, SS

    BHAR: SMBH, Assassin, KoC

    The Resistance: Uprising, USOE, Exogenesis part I

    The 2nd Law: Unsustainable, Animals, Panic Station

    Drones: Reapers, The Handler, The Globalist

  7. Aftermath is a relaxing song. A good ballad.

    The strings, are the 'Milan strings' they posted no Instagram? Or are the Milan Strings in The Globalist?

    Anyway...They sound great!

  8. Nice to see Drones has almost got 5* on Itunes (based on 663 reviews). Still growing on me, the Handler's got some beautiful drumming that I sort of hadn't noticed due to the guitars, vocals and bass taking most of my attention

     

    Good news!

     

    The guys did an excellent work with the album. I can't stop listening to it! :LOL:
