Peter. Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Prog is one I couldn't see them pulling off very well. I think something like the stuff tessaract does nowadays would work nicely. the long, held-out chest notes would suit Matt, and all the polyrythmic odd time-signature-esque distorted heaviness could be quite interesting. as for Isis, they really can get draggy, but that's why I wrote "some stuff". post metal has to be something really special to become interesting.

Hopix Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 They're not 70s style prog. But they write in a progressive style. They're prog in the same way as Radiohead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Neither of them are very prog though. They have elements but not really full on into the genre (I think Yorke even hates prog). I couldn't see them going more in depth into prog in the same way I could see them going more in depth into post-rock like Sippe's example.

FabriPav Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 A couple of odd time signature 65dos-inspired piano-heavy songs would be happily appreciated. I mean, if they went for something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpEILvXQaZM They could make something incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be fucking epic. Especially with some of Matt's vocals over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumpypotato Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 That actually sounds like the sort of thing Muse would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm missing the musey OTTness as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I'm kind of tired of some of the 'OTTness' by this point tbh. No choir and sparingly used strings on the next album would be a lot more refreshing imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter. Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 shush um...no? also, the choir can fuck off, I agree with that, but there's never enough strings:p and I've always thought of Muse as a band that grab your attention immediately, not just some random music that's 'nice to listen to'. I'd like them to stay that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiga Kagekami Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I honestly don't mind Muse incorporating post-rock elements into their songs, just not as long-winded as some really long post-rock songs. Heck, get some shoegaze in there as well. What I'm thinking of at the moment is that they'll be less keen on the electronic influences and will go for the more rockier route for album number 7, which I welcome a lot. I don't think I'll be terribly disappointed with their output, anyways. I just hope its 'lifespan' would last longer than T2L did for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Before making the album, the band should be forced to only listen to Tool, Oceansize and Amplifier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 T2L is so much better than TR in terms of lifespan, I still listen to it from time to time, and I still really enjoy the live performances of songs from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, total opposite for me. TR still has some songs that I feel the need to occasionally go back and listen to (Exogenesis, US, MK Ultra) whereas T2L pretty much just has Animals for me.

Dave. Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I listened to TR again today and it does have some great songs on it. But I think overall it and T2L are about even. TR having the higher highs but the lower lows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TR having the higher highs but the lower lows. I'd agree with that, T2L does have a couple of decent songs but too many average ones. That, coupled with bad flow and general inconsistency doesn't give much incentive to go back and listen to T2L. TR's low points could be so bad that they have pretty much the same effect for some people though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
