Sephian Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 "and it's testament to their refusal to churn out the same show twice" Is he talking about the same Muse? I think he may have confused them with Radiohead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obi Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I said: "I've no idea where this guy is getting his info from. The majority of Muse fans agree that Origin is their best album by far. Definitely not the inconsistent Black Holes or the overblown Resistance. It's just great songs. I'd rather have Micro Cuts than pretty much anything off the Resistance (and it's not like I hate the new record). Or maybe it's just NME talking sh(te again." -- nmelol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tofu Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 “And let’s not forget, the first half of ‘Origin…’ – ‘New Born’, ‘Bliss’, ‘Plug In Baby’, ‘Citizen Erased’ – is stone cold, encore worthy Muse in excelsis and ‘Feeling Good’’s only a few Riffs Of Apollo away.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's people on boards like this that are gonna be going to see Muse at Reading. "Passing by Strokes fans" aren't exactly the target demographic of these shows.

"Passing by Strokes fans" aren't exactly the target demographic of these shows. Well, there are loads of people who are gonna see Muse who aren't exactly the kind of fans that owns OoS and loves it to bits. I'm guessing that the reaction is in the comment sections of the NME articles regarding the twitter posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemsy Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Though, wasn't this the reactions from the festival goers? Meaning, not just Muse fans. This. Festivals are all about the 'hits'.. well, maybe the well-known album tracks anyway. People go to fests thinking things like, 'Oh I really love this band and that band, might check out that band, not arsed about that band... and OH YEAH I might go and see Muse 'cause I like that Starlight song.' So, faced with an hour of OoS is gonna be like for them. But not for us. Hell to the yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LyraSilvertongue Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I do think it would have made more sense for them to do this at one of their own shows but hey, I'm not complaining. Tough luck non-Muser-festival-goer At least if they want to familiarise themselves with the music before the festival, they only need to listen to one album and not all five.

Zaphod Chizzlebrox Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 To be honest, the second half of Origin is going to drag a bit at a festival...although once it's finished they'll still have half an hour to fill, so can whack out one or two beasts (as long as those beasts are SS, Dead Star and KoC (and they steer clear of playing anything off TR) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxomflirter Queef Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I wish they would, but somehow I doubt they'll bring that one out for a festival But they played it at a festival before the bloody album was even released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaphod Chizzlebrox Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 But they played it at a festival before the bloody album was even released That was back when they were still doing different stuff though...it's been ages since they actually played it, so I'd not get my hopes up about it being played. Which is a shame, because it's a bloody good live song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pokemew Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Ah, Assassin... how I wish <3 but I do remember, when Matt asked for songs, I said to him "Assassin! :awesome:" and his reaction was "... uh? :confused:" ... I think he doesn't remember he has a song called Assassin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
