Killer Rabbit Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I really, really love this. I know people want it to build up into a huge explosion or something, but the subdued nature of it works. From one of the write-ups, it seemed like this piece is supposed to be humanity failing and the earth dying. The quietness makes me think of that one quote: This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Yes! Gets better and better. This should have been a 10 minute track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginOfAbso Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 At this rate, it should be at 100% in about an hour. And so far (80%) I'm really liking it, I love the hypnotic repetition of it, slowly building layers. Although, I now hear a choir, which disappoints me.

Furygirl Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Does it build to something? Why yes, yes it does. Something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanob17 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Worried that it doesn't build to a climax? Remember, an economy based on endless growth is unsustainable... It's not an accident that it builds and builds and builds and then collapses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an accident that it builds and builds and builds and then collapses. Good point. I think I like it better now that I think of it that way.

Furygirl Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 The last minute and half of this blow me away. It physically affects me in a bizarre way. Huh huh, that rhymed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spark_ Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 The key change at about 2:10 is wonderful. Recharacterises the track completely. And it doesn't need a bigger climax. The climax it has is perfect for the track. This is probably the purest musical track Muse has ever done - relying entirely on little changes of key and harmony to evoke mood. Really, really impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessicaSarahS Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 dissapointed that it had no climax, but still great nonetheless That's what she said. I heard a climax... I had one. I wish the climax was bigger but who cares, it's still a great track. That's what she said. I love this track. Much better than Unsustainable.

the aurora Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Not that it sounds like it but I'm reminded of Obliviate from the Deathly Hallows Part I soundtrack. It's eerily beautiful and yet sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
