DramaQueen. Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I thought IS was brilliant when I heard it, and I still feel that way. I just almost never feel the urge to listen to it... Which I know is super confusing. Nah, I feel the same. In fact, I feel like that for all of the songs I like off T2L, which is kinda weird.

serpentsatellite Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Explorers has always reminded me of a reverse Lion King ("someday son... NONE of this will be yours...") and the most cynical lullaby of all time. I love it just for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DramaQueen. Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I love The Resistance. Me too, it's the album that got me into Muse The last three pages just made me chuckle out loud, I love you bitches AND FFS WHY DOES EVERYONE HATE explorers it's so cute I don't "hate" it, just find it incredibly boring, although I listen to it from time to time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I love Explorers. Excellently written ballad, interesting chord progressions, powerful chorus, nice textures and moods throughout. Easily as good as say Blackout and way better than Guiding Light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixi Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I still like The 2nd Law, some great song here and there. It's just that it sounds soulless to me, it mostly lacks that Muse side of the game which is pretty strong on Drones. But I prefer it to The Resistance anyway, The Resistance is so boring and it has the only Muse song I really dislike, which is Resistance (as I already said).

Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I'm glad to see some Explorers love. It's my favorite song on T2L I didn't like Explorer's for quite some time, but then I realized it was only because I liked so many other Muse songs more, when in truth it's a beautiful ballad. I tried to learn it piano once, but I didn't get too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Erased 01 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 The Resistance is shit. Opinions nah. The 2 still bothers me WRITE 'SECOND' nope.

serpentsatellite Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 because he said "there's going to be a lullaby on the next album" and it's a lullaby about running out of space on earth. its just a stupid joke it seems How is the idea of overpopulation, or corporations buying up every inch of available land (I'm pretty sure I heard the moon is being pieced out now...) a "stupid joke?" Put that together with the lullaby nature, and it's a song about fearing for what kind of piece of shit world your kid is going to have to grow up in. I think it's pretty, and sad. (...or: why can't people not like something without the thing they dislike being a "joke" or inherently flawed/shit in some way? Is there some fear if you don't like something someone else does, and that something isn't shit, that other person "wins" or something...? I'm confused.)

vixi Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I liked Explorers at the stadium tour, it made for a good atmosphere, but if it was a bit shorter it would've been better. I think I preferred it to those versions of Unintended and Blackout, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DramaQueen. Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 On the Explorers topic, I think it's too much to call its theme a "joke". You can dislike it, but that doesn't make it a joke. I still think it was too dull live, at least in arenas, as I haven't seen it in stadiums I am sure that there are a lot of The Resistance's fans over here. I am one of them. Yes, look at that new thread of The Resistance's fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say the idea behind it was a stupid joke. to try to put a song about it, phrased, sung, and executed as it was, i think, seems like a stupid joke. to address what was said in parentheses, no. i said i thought it was a stupid joke, youre thinking too much about my meaning behind it. edit: "and save our crops from drought" "fuse helium-3 our last hope" "go to sleep" the execution of this is so horrible to me.
