Another review of the 6 December Melbourne gig below:

 

"Muse fit in between commercial Coldplay and avant-garde Radiohead. They are that band in the middle who appeal to both sides of that musical spectrum."

lol at "the nameless keyboard player hidden behind the drum kit"

[DifferentPerson]

Don't know if anyone has seen this (or if it contains any new information):

Seems they've already written some songs for the new album. And we could get a new single by the end of 2014.

What a load of bullshit. Matt's vocals are like 80% of the reason I like Muse. Of course, it's a matter of taste though and the journalism in this article is piss-poor.

Posted because it's funny how bad and biased the article is.

NME seems to be convinced Muse are releasing an album this year. *shrug*

I love Alt-7.

I love Alt-7.

 

Me too, same with D7ano D7ano

Not really Muse related... yet.

 

Lady Gaga will probably perform in space.

So Muse, too?

[FabriPav]

That's old news. I don't think Muse will perform in space anytime soon.

But I really, really wanted Muse to be the first to do that! Dammit, Lady Gaga!

Very interesting list. Apparently it costs $150k+ to book Muse which seems low in comparison with some of the other acts.

I moved the pop vs. rock discussion going on about this article here: http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?t=91252

[CoolFunkMan]

So yeah, Ultimate Guitar had their usual community question. This time it was asking them who they think the most over-rated guitarist was. Matt Bellamy is 7th...

*Waits for fireworks.*

[musedan]

Cobain being number 1 or anywhere near the list is ridiculous

[serpentsatellite]

It's just click bait. It's meant to piss people off.

[Hyper]

somehow I missed that Back in Black interview

http://musicfeeds.com.au/news/matt-bellamy-updates-fans-on-heavy-new-muse-album/

[serpentsatellite]

Guy makes a couple of short tweets once every 4 months or so, and someone writes an article on it.

 

And if the next album sounds like Back in Black, I might actually cry.

The way he said it, it might turn out to be more anthemic than anything. Still not the best, but whatever. He's joking.

[serpentsatellite]

I was actually a bit surprised to see him tweet about it being heavy, still.

The first time I saw him talking about it, he already was prefacing the statement with '... but I might change my mind at any time.'

Best to wait and see...and try to have a life apart from Muse.
