Ryoma-kun Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Shaky That's not shaky really. It's just avoiding chest-voice in an acceptable way. I've heard way worse for that note, but can't remember any specific examples right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard way worse for that note, but can't remember any specific examples right now. I've heard him do a thin mixed voice A4 actually. Here: No wait, might have been a Bb4, can't remember or check now. EDIT: Goddamn that scream at 1.15 sounded weeeird. Not sure if it's overtones. 2.30 is the note anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipso Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Wat, how is that even a comparison? Matt doesn't even attempt it. And Chris DOES sound a bit shaky during that performance, just not at that timestamp. Check out 2.58 for example. Chris sounds fantastic at 2:58 As for the Rock am Ring one, if we're confusing the words 'weak' and 'shaky', then... Also regarding Follow Me, he hits a nice Bb4 which completely takes out his voice for the easiest vocal part of the song that follows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nipso Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 And that's where I stopped paying attention What? I really don't hear anything wrong with it. I guess there's a little thingummy (there's probably a technical term for it but tbh all my vocal knowledge comes from you) when he changes to the highest note, but it's barely noticeable and Matt does them all the time. 'When your heart Is brea...heeaaa...king' for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec Ferris Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Listening to Angel Dust by Faith No More and NIN's The Fragile, I was thinking that has the kind of cinematic flourishes that I'd like to see Muse add. Ditto "Red City" by Stone Sour. The latter made me think of the kind of heavy piano song I'd like to hear Muse make (albeit minus the doom-metal bridge, which could have been on Slipknot's second album). Obviously, when you listen to Angel Dust it makes Muse look like Keane. (On another note, how about a heavy funky track?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Sorry, weak I a wrong word, shaky is better How is Chris shaky for Dead Star? edit: in the latest performances of it, I should say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 You do realise that Muse's "own sound" is also influenced by other bands? More people need to realize this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzthief Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 How is Chris shaky for Dead Star? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI3c70-fs4U&t=1m48s and also 2:58. Just sounds out of breath and shaky. The 2010 performances were especially bad. He did it best in 2008 when it actually sounded pretty awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangeseas Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 But RatM, Nirvana, Jeff Buckley and Rachmaninoff influence is something better. :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzthief Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 If that's shaky... Well it definetly isn't strong and powerful. And he sounds too thin on Liquid State live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I really can't be bothered with links atm but you really shouldn't be able to dispute that Chris' high notes are shaky a lot of the time. He often gets shaky and cracks on the Bb4 in Dead Star. He DOES crack on the SBE gig, he just recovers instantly, unlike for example the 2010 gig in Asia.

kueller Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Earl's Court also had quite a terrible voice crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chagi Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 And he sounds too thin on Liquid State live. I think he sounded phenomenal on the most recent American gigs (going on audience recordings). I'd say having him do lead vocals has helped his vocals quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maneachicken Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Dead Star and supermassive aren't really 3-piece tracks. Really Fabri? Dead Star - Bass, Guitar (Keyboard in verses) & Drums, thoughout. nothing over complicated. Supermassive - Bass, Guitar, laden with effects for solo & Drums, throughout. Backing vocals over used but not to the Big Freeze extent, additional percussion isn't stepping the OMG needs synth and 2 guitars at once boundary.

Butrus Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 they should do a few raw energy songs like Small Print, Dead Star and Unnatural Selection rocky parts Liquid State had the potential if only it was longer and sung by Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
