LP9: WOTP Discussion/Speculation Thread
lurkinglurkerlurksagain replied to Jobby's topic in Songs & Releases
It is time for me to get excited about Muse albums again, listen to it five times at once when it drops, then probably not listen to it much again. Let's goooo! I do like the two songs tho. The sound of Compliance seems to do Simulation Theory type things better than Simulation Theory -

I still like the song after listening a couple more times. eh idk, I understand the complaints but it's perfectly fine to my ears
-
In terms of songwriting, this song is the best of the singles. Thought Contagion = Something Human Dig Down
-
How would you all rank the singles we've gotten?
-
where has the theory about 8 acoustic tracks come from?
-
Maybe the benefit of lowered expectations, but I'm digging it. It's a solid pop song.

That was great

I doubt they'll take them off the album. Unless Matt had a stroke of inspiration and made a concept album where those don't make sense on it (although any concept album they'd do would fit perfectly with it because us vs them / resist)- 5,585 replies

What song would you most like Muse to do a cover of?
lurkinglurkerlurksagain replied to Kodack's topic in Songs & Releases
That could be cool! I have no idea what a Muse cover of this would look like, but might be cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekXb74bUbRM- 2,297 replies

Album Eight: Simulation Theory
lurkinglurkerlurksagain replied to Claudia O's topic in Songs & Releases
People were comparing older and newer muse stuff and talking about disappointment in new stuff or how Drones gets shit on too much and there's too much pessimism surrounding Muse's new stuff. You basically did the same thing as the first group except compared hype levels for two different albums by different artists. Let's let both comparisons go unmolested.- 5,585 replies

There's also such a thing as over saturation. Look at Rihanna, she was obviously worn out after constantly touring and releasing music. She left, came back a few years later, and there was a lot more hype surrounding her album then there would have been if she had not taken a break.- 5,585 replies

I think the new album will turn out to be at least a 7. On the topic of being more excited for other band's albums, that happened to me last year. I got sucked into the five album releases from KGATLW, never been more hyped tbh.- 5,585 replies

Yeah, I wouldn't be angry or annoyed at people who think their new stuff is on par with their old. Good for them- 5,585 replies

Honestly, I think Pitchfork is very preoccupied with being perceived as tastemakers. I get the impression that plays into their ratings of music more than the actual music at times.- 5,585 replies

I basically know most reviewers dislike or are ambivalent towards Muse, but if it's a reviewer I like / respect I'm always interested in why they think what they think, especially about an album I'm familiar with.- 5,585 replies

lurkinglurkerlurksagain replied to Claudia O's topic in Songs & Releases
I am incredibly late, but the only album from Kendrick I could see being called generic is DAMN. If you can listen through good kid and to pimp a butterfly and think what he accomplished with the overall stories presented there is generic, I uh don't trust your rap taste. For individual songs, Sing About Me, Mortal Man, etc. are example enough- 5,585 replies

lurkinglurkerlurksagain replied to Claudia O's topic in Songs & Releases
I wonder if Muse do genre hopping because they don't know what to do (out of ideas) unless they say "I want to make a song like X", or because they've become bored with their sound.- 5,585 replies

Sure, it could be great. For gamechanging tho I picture a lot of experimentation or pushing a sound forward. AM haven't really done that- 5,585 replies

Agree new AM album has a good chance to be better than a new Muse album, disagree with AM being gamechanging. I don't think they are at all, or really have much of a potential to be even though I like their music.- 5,585 replies

I feel so lost. Thought Contagion is not amazing, but not everything Muse does will be. It's not this horrific monstrosity a lot of the board seem to be saying it is. It's a solid 3/5, maybe more for me.- 5,585 replies

I get wanting more crowd interaction, but sometimes stuff like Homme's 15 minute drunken monologues to the pregnant woman in the first row gets old. King Gizzard were like the opposite of this. They just came out and played, going from one song to the other in the blink of an eye.- 5,585 replies
