a-museing Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Loving the evolution of this news: "Muse bassist Chris Wolstenholme wants to write songs for the band's sixth studio album." "Chris Wolstenholme will pen the band's tracks while the frontman takes a break from rock to be with his actress fiancé Kate Hudson" "Muse's Matt Bellamy Steps Down As Lead Songwriter For Kate Hudson" "Muse start work on new album without Matt Bellamy" I love it. He just said on twitter that it's not true @CTWolstenholme So to clear things up amongst any readers of The Sun out there, its all a load of bollocks. Boo. I was actually really eager to hear what he would write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caff Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Even though it's bollocks you have to feel sorry for Chris. Every time there's a rumour of him doing anything (singing, writing...) some Muse fans act like it's the end of the world and Matt IS Muse so it won't be the same so say it shouldn't even be attempted even though we don't know til they try. Nice to see some people value all members of the band equally, aye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see some people value all members of the band equally, aye? Really?, the feeling I have lately is all the opposite, if Muse does something the fans don't like everyone will blame Matt for it, but if Muse does something the fans love, whatever it is, you see people getting pissed because, off course, Muse is not only Matt, is a three piece band, and Chris and Dom deserve all our love too... I want to see the three of them writing together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingardium LevioSIA Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Yeah I had a feeling it was bullshit. I quite like the idea though... I mean, it would probably cause too big a style shift if he did all the songwriting, but I do think it'd be cool for the rest of the band to be more involved.

I think polls have always shown most fans very much in favour of Chris both writing and providing vocals for more songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tofu Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Goddamn. Well, color me disappointed! I never expected an album of Chris exclusively or anything but I was hoping for a few Chris tracks. OH WELL A GIRL CAN DREAM! That said, I'm with The Queer on this one; at the end of the day I do trust Muse to make good music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interzone Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 We may well see Chris writing a song or two, which would be a nice change, but a whole album? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uccellino Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I don't have a problem with Chris doing a bit of songwriting, but I'm not surprised it's turned out to be lies. The Sun is a scummy rag imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrebleRose689 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Hmm... I'm wondering if Chris means that he won't be doing any writing at all, or is just referring to the idea that he would be penning the whole album himself. I'm gonna hold on to hope that we'll see him credited for at least a bit of writing on album 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyduh Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Dunno if I'm alone with this, but I never saw Muse like Muse=Matt. Even though Chris or Dom may not write a song on their own with minimum edit from the other two, I don't see why everyone else's perception is that Matt writes everything with Dom and Chris there just to play out the parts. They change songs in the studio..... so.... I mean, if we're generalising, I see Dom as bringing more electronica into Muse, Chris bringing the hard rock stuff (which lacked on the last record because of his constant drinking and rehab), and Matt provides with classical bits and more experimental stuff (as well as the basis for the songs). Just my opinion, but I don't see Muse like Nine Inch Nails (where Trent writes the music, and the band accompanies him on tour). Anyway, this has been discussed a thousand times, but still............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see some people value all members of the band equally, aye? All I EVER read on this board is how Matt = Muse and how much every one hates him for it. I'm sick of it and have been staying away from boards altogether because of the negativity and most of my Muser friends do as well. Muse = Muse/end of! They make the decisions equally, just Matt writes the songs therefore gets the flack. If the other two don't like the songs, I don't think they would see the light of day. Doms always backing up what Matt says. I still say if after 2 albums/tours your still bagging on everything Muse does, move on and take your negativity elsewhere. rant over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree that to say Matt is everything is way too much. If Matt were to make a solo album without Dom or Chris backing him up I'm pretty sure it would sound very different from Muse.

All I stated was an opinion of how I've seen it. When it was rumoured Chris might sing all I saw was people basically calling it sick and wrong for not being Matt when plenty of bands have a secondary singer for the odd song, usually bsides. Also I don't "bag" on Muse, I don't even post many negative opinions so no I will not take my non-existent negativity elsewhere. I've been a Muse fan for over eleven years spanning all their albums so think I'm here to stay and am allowed to have an opinion on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
