FabriPav Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Terrible. "I'm collapsing and Stella clouds our guess" makes more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I still think the start is the most grotesque 10 seconds of music they've ever released. After that it's alright. I remember when I first listened to it, hearing the instruments kick in and instantly thinking "Oh no". I thought it was dreadful at first, loved the chorus though. If the verses didn't have those disgustingly cheesy backing vocals repeating what Matt says, the song would be a lot easier to listen to I think.

muse112 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I have been a fan of muse since I first heard them during the Absolution era, and in my opinion, Big Freeze is one of their all time greatest songs. I can forgive the somewhat cheesy verses, but goddamn those are some of the most powerful choruses they have made. That instrumental break and then Matt's croon at the beginning of the final chorus is the single most goosebump-inducing thing I have ever heard from them. Just pure synthy bliss. Keep it up boys. I'm not trolling, this is just my honest opinion And yes, I can forgive that the choruses use the same chord progression as the bridge and chorus of Starlight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyndris Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Really the only thing I don't like about this song are the cheesy backing vocals of the verse. The rest, I kind of love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mskatie Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I half expect "In the name of looove" to be belted out when I hear this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 "I'm collapsing in stellar clouds of gas." This lyric is awesome. I don't care if everyone thinks I'm wrong. Agreed. Awesome lyric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kueller Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Studio albums I assume. Also I think The Gallery is the only one with almost no chance to have been ever played live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipso Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Studio albums I assume. Also I think The Gallery is the only one with almost no chance to have been ever played live. If they played Host... I can see the Gallery being used as an instrumental intro to a song some day, in the style of Forced In or Nishe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there's an old recording of Host. Funny I actually listened to it a few days before Montpelier. Ashamed also I don't believe had much proof that it was ever played fully until recently. As far as I know the other ones could have been played live some long time ago. The Gallery only unlikely because I don't think they could have pulled off that track live at the time. I would also like to see it come back as an intermission, kind of like Forced In was used at Wembley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rohankleem Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Have anyone else noticed the "facebook-chat sound" at about 3:56 on The Big Freeze? Divra-Elo Yes! Hey there, I was literally just searching the internet to see if there was any content on this. But a "facebook noise", I'm not so sure? It sounds more like a squeaking chair to me - which can happen all the time in recordings - did they know that sound was in or was it missed. Nice one Divra, very perceptive!

hairolfitri Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I edited a shortened "single edit" version for this song a couple years ago, for no apparent reason I can remember. Idk how to embed it here so I'll just post a clickable link: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
