Mitton Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yes and yes Matt is like an idea magpie. He'll grab concepts he thinks are shiny and incorporate them without any real deep consideration for them. Hahaha, I imagine him scanning through a dictionary for attractive words, loosely looking up that word and then writing a whole album around it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edeslash Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 It's not supposed to be an album about physics. Their explanation about the album's connection to physics is present in every track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edeslash Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 "The album is not supposed to be about physics" "The album is clearly connected to physics" Really? It isn't an album about the second law of thermodynamics. See where I'm going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiral_static Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Other than Chris's vocal length debut The 2nd Law titled songs are the only ones that are different in style / dont hark to Muse's mishmash/old stuff (Supremacy) or sounding like someone else (Big Freeze / U2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unidentifiable Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 There's nothing actually about thermodynamics. Matt's using the second law (the entropy one) as an analogy to the unsustainabilty of endless economic growth, something more and more people are realising is a problem, as it demands ever-increasing energy/environmental costs etc. This book is pretty good at exploring the subject, if you're interested: Prosperity Without Growth - Economics For a Finite Planet. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Prosperity-without-Growth-Economics-Finite/dp/1849713235/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1348610070&sr=8-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yeah, but it was still largely absent from the album... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Matt's using the second law (the entropy one) as an analogy to the unsustainabilty of endless economic growth Oh yeah forgot about all the songs dealing with that issue, songs like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edeslash Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yeah, but it was still largely absent from the album... The connection is between the actual second law and our personal lives. Chris put it pretty well - "how it sometimes feels like everything is falling apart around us". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarrieB Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I would love to hear your theory on how Matt combined love and relationships into an album that was supposedly about thermodynamics, energy etc. Go ahead. The connection is with trying to keep the passion in the relationship going, but over time that reduces in any relationship. He more or less said that. It's not hard to understand really.

Edeslash Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 The last two songs are a representation of thermodynamics. I posted this in the main discussion thread. I love it how Unsustainable and Isolated System musically represent entropy. Unsustainable has a large contrast between different parts. Isolated System feels like a single, stable mass. Beautiful.

Mitton Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 The last two songs are a representation of thermodynamics. I posted this in the main discussion thread. Thats what I said at the beginning of the thread. I feel like only these two songs and possibly Madness (the relationship metaphor) remotely carry the thermodynamics theme.
