Do we know if the super deluxe set comes with the original artwork and not just the alternate artwork?

Cheers!

I'm back! After being banned for an unknown reason I wasn't told of. I was warned about speaking of leaks the first time, but the second time? I have no clue! Oh well, I won't be on a lot - albums out, the hype has dissipated. So album discussion thread? I'll say that Drones has pushed up Origin of Symmetry to #1 with Black Holes & Revelations for my favourite Muse albums. There are definitely some great rocking songs on the album, but for the most part, nothing revolutionary, unfortunately. It's a good album, but not an amazing one. EDIT: It's the rawness of Matt's voice in pre-Absolution era that I've grown to appreciate more since Drones, as Matt's voice sounds very 'try-hard' in songs like DI, Psycho, Mercy, Revolt, Aftermath and the latter half of The Globalist.

Uh-oh... I wonder if everyone is going to whistle along live at the same time... It'll be a dissonant disaster!
-
Listening to this again. Wow, it really builds up well! That tremolo guitar and Matt's notes - I don't care how cheesy it may be a song - it's really passionate and expressive and it does it REALLY well!
-
What they said. Don't listen to ninsp
-
Revolt actually sounds a lot like a Christian song. Like one of those typical upbeat, pop-rock sorta sounding songs with the vocal hooks and the chorus. Lyrics partially too. Interesting musical approach!
-
If people like this sound, and the way Matt sings 'yellow', check out a band called MoeTar. They're like melodic prog pop rock/metal with clean vocal female singer.
-
Agreed!
-
Awesome song! Definitely different from their predominant style. Very upbeat and pop-rockish, but it's refreshing.
-
I thought it was pretty neat! It was catchy, there were nice hooks, the tempo change really makes it good!
-
Dead Inside - eh, mad bass and guitar solo. Psycho - sick, just a tad long - lyrics funny. Mercy - Yay! Each chorus was the same high dynamic though. Reapers - This is it! ACDC, Dream Theater, RATM. The Handler - The 3-piece Supremacy of Drones. Right up there with Reapers. Defector - A bit below Reapers and the Handler - sick song with mad harmonies. Revolt - I can take this. I love the melodic hooks and the tempo change into choruses. Aftermath - Very delicate beautiful guitar, expressive vocals and music. Really nice. The Globalist - YES. The middle section is somewhat disconnected from other parts though. Guitar solo and piano sections were highlights. Overall, I'd rate the album, excluding JFK and Drones, a solid 8/10, perhaps 8.5. Definitely a distinct step in the right direction! Now, for ranking! Top songs in no particular order: Reapers The Handler Defector Good songs: Revolt Aftermath The Globalist DI 'You could have worked a bit more on it' songs: Psycho Mercy Tracks I HAVEN'T heard yet in studio versions: [JFK] Drones Side comments about songs and Musers: I somehow see Aftermath being compared to and ranked almost as low as NSC, particularly the ending. I personally really enjoyed it, but that's where I think this board will head.

How right you are! I don't get these people! Aside from this comment, Imma comment 1 line on each song (that I've heard). Dead Inside - eh, mad bass and guitar solo. Psycho - sick, just a tad long - lyrics funny. Mercy - Yay! Each chorus was the same high dynamic though. Reapers - This is it! ACDC, Dream Theater, RATM. The Handler - The 3-piece Supremacy of Drones. Right up there with Reapers. Defector - A bit below Reapers and the Handler - sick song with mad harmonies. Revolt - I can take this. I love the melodic hooks and the tempo change into choruses. Aftermath - Very delicate beautiful guitar, expressive vocals and music. Really nice. The Globalist - YES. The middle section is somewhat disconnected from other parts though. Overall, I'd rate the album, excluding JFK and Drones, a solid 8/10, perhaps 8.5.

Let me guess, you're not a prog metal person?
-
I suppose that's where the instrumental fills in the story, replicating the end of the world.
-
Do you happen to have a link/file of JFK (and Drones)?? PM please!!
-
Hey, would you mind linking me [JFK] and Drones title tracks? I can't seem to find them with Google.
-
Okay, just found a link. Wow! I'm not disappointed so far - listening to Revolt (I can deal with a happy song). EDIT: Just to clarify, as I'm sure most of you are, I'm still getting the CD to support the band.
-
Okay, I slept for 9 hours. What did I miss? It really looks like the album's leaked/out! Anyone wanna PM a link or a file for it?
-
Well the past few hours was nice, guys, thanks! Surprised a certain number of people weren't jumping on every little thing being said - mainly because they weren't around, thankfully! NIGHT ALL!!
-
What do you mean? It has - go back 57 or so pages to see all our responses. We're already over it and are just talking casually.
-
Aww I feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
-
Pt. 5 before the 5th, anybody?
-
Bah, I'm more of a Diet Coke and Sugar-free Mother person myself. Not a health freak (wouldn't be drinking those if I were anyway), I just prefer their tastes.
-
Who is the actual person? I'm pretty curious now
