Xaverri Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 "Angie" and "Paint it Black" are the only ones I'm really familiar with, and the only ones I really like. Same with the Beatles, I just never really felt the urge to "get into it." I recognise their importance in the music time-line, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polythenelucy Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 "Angie" and "Paint it Black" are the only ones I'm really familiar with, and the only ones I really like. Same with the Beatles, I just never really felt the urge to "get into it." I recognise their importance in the music time-line, though. I felt a need to defend The Beatles just now but I won't get started. I think Matt was only referring to Sgt. Pepper's which is frankly overhyped. And I remember reading some interview in which Chris mentioned that The Beatles would be in his dream line-up, along with Jimi Hendrix and Nirvana (you'd think he'd mention Beach Boys...). Rolling Stones are always the same old same old. I really tried getting into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan. Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Am I the only one that agrees with Dom about the Stones? Nope. I was actually about to ask the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I hope Matt loses the U2 obsession during the recording process.. And what the hell is he on about when he says he never thought about writing a song from someone else's perspective. Has he heard Soldier's Poem?

screwdriver Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I agree with Matt and Chris about Sgt. Peppers. Abbey Road is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madam Curie Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I agree with Matt and Chris about Sgt. Peppers. Abbey Road is better. And Revolver is better still in my opinion. I think the main reason Sgt. Peppers gets all the hype is that it was arguably the very first "concept album", it perfectly reflected the time period it was released, it was ground-breaking audio/technology-wise, and it was the first pop music album that both classically-trained musicians and snooty academics were willing to admit was great. There's only one other album since that I think comes close to meeting those criteria, and that's OK Computer. (And I don't think it's the best Radiohead album either. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioMuseHead Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I'm really hope some of Matt's choice of artists aren't going to influence the next album:noey: R&B, Hip Hop, Alicia Keys, Beyonce & U2:wtf: Nothing wrong with any of those at all.

forevermusic Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Ugh, Matt's taste in music is absolutely terrible. Not all of it but some of his more recent choices make you go "Really Matt?!?" I will say though that Beyonce and U2 are vaguely respectable choices and that there is a whole lot worse around (which Matt has probably listened too).

LyraSilvertongue Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Nothing wrong with any of those at all. None of those are what the majority of fans want from Muse, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkadelic Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Matt liking a bit of R&B and Hip Hop is nothing new. I remember an interview from the Abso era where he was apparently blasting Beyonce from his speakers and possibly dancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
