Absolutioner Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 There's a bass cover on YT that sounds like a better mix than the album version I really think the live version of this song will be way better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshin11212 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Made a cover. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jexc2ke5GYE A few slips, but it's not bad I dun think. Liquid State is absolutely amazing. I can't wait to see them play this live. Chris playing that sweet base line while singing, and Matt's off to the side doing Chris-eqsue headbanging and backing vocals. Going to be awwwwwsome!

Scaramoosh Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 This pissed me off. I mean, Chris said that it was a great opportunity for Matt to do some more complex guitar work on the tracks and then you can barely even hear him? I mean,come on. It seems to me like a friendly backing off , like let's let him try rather than making the songs the equal part of the album and their catalogue. This goes for Liquid State more so than Save Me btw. Matt also said he would make more effort with guitar solo's in the album and they're all very poor and very very basic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen_Eraser Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Thought it was the worst song on the album. Its not Muse at all. It just sounds like any average straight forward rock band that dominates the tragically bad music scene in America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AguanteRiver Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 10 songs into the album, I thought there would be no heavy tracks. Then Track 11 comes up and BOOM! Pregnant! My immediate thought was "oh hai old school Foo Fighters!", and that's a very good thing. I love this song to bits! If it makes it as a live track all the way to the western US, it will be BEASTLY live, like poor forgotten Unnatural Selection, a song that people thought was "meh" until their brains exploded from the live version. I for one, will welcome our new songwriting overlord. I hope they add some killer outro/riffage/random solo of doom to the track for the gigs, but either way I'll be enjoying every second of it if I hear it live.

Killer Rabbit Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yeah he'll probably do some improv live, but I doubt the track will be played much. I think this song has more of a chance of becoming a regular than Save Me does. We'll just have to see how the tour progresses. In other news, I've figured out what the bass tone on this song reminds me of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S002MadnlQs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.jingles Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 QOTSA and Foo Fighters indeed. . That's definitely a Foo Fighter's sound. Not necessarily a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I quite like this sing, the chorus is nice, Chris shows off his vocal ability a bit more here than Save Me, but...where is the guitar? Maybe it's just the stream I have but to me it sounds barely audible which is doubly sad as we were all expecting Matt to get some space to do something awesome without having to do vocals. I think back to things like Osaka jam and Helsinki jam and Drum and Bass and I think, why not that!? Osaka jam was legendary and we've been waiting since BHaR for a studio version although those hopes are mostly dead now. Makes me wonder what else Chris had lying around.

pluginspace Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 The song is amazing - Chris should've had a main singing part before. His voice is very different to Matt's- gentler somehow? But I wouldn't say the song is very Muse-y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Lyrics Take me for a ride Break me up and steal what's left inside And hope and pray inequity has died inside and left a scar. I'm on red alert Bring me peace and wash away my dirt Spin me 'round and help me to divert and walk into the light Warm my heart tonight Hold my head up high Help me to survive Kick me when I'm down Feed me poison, fill me 'til I drown Wake me up before I get pushed out and fall into the night Warm my heart tonight (force me to lose control) And hold my head up high (watch as I lose my soul) And help me to survive (push me until I fall) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that audible because it's a very low riff, and this song has bass more prominent. Definitely a 7-string was used here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareeh Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 It's a song that wants to be thrash metal or something similar but just doesn't make it and the guitar in the song generally isn't very interesting. It also sounds like a tame version of Bridge Burning by the Foo Fighters. And then the Rob Swire vocals, hit or a miss really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygirl Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Is this the song a reviewer said they didn't like because Chris was singing thru a vocoder? Is he? I don't really hear any obvious effects on this song or Save Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5h0r7y Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 its good but I want to see an outro type crescendo jam at the end for atleast 90 seconds, and maybe a longer chorus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcools Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 on save me there definatly is some sort of effect used, on liquid state im unsure, need to listen to it again, but i think there is one(or more) as well, nothing bad about it though, music critics are just without purpose so they must make themselves look like they say something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
