Chagi Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Oh yay, a performance video! We've had so many classic, memorable videos with interesting narratives recently I thought it was about time they cobbled together some miming and live footage with After Effects into something passable and instantly forgettable. Because it's so uncommon that the band performes in the videos that have "interesting narratives"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareeh Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Who gives a fuck bout what a music video is like at the end of the day? Knights of Cydonia is epic but I've only watched it 4/5 times so what's the deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can make a bad song a little bit better, but that's pretty much it. A good song doesn't need a mv at all. Not saying I don't want any, but I won't cry if it's a bad one like most Muse videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H4N5 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Because we compare the Muse videos to the ones we actually see, and we often only get to see the good videos by other bands/artists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah true. But like I said, I'm not that keen on mv's, not even on good ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 You seem somewhat bitter about this turn of events. I don't actually really care much, it was just an opportunity to be sarcastic I guess you could break them down like this... Live In Your World Butterflies and Hurricanes Resistance Follow Me Pure Performance Hyper Music Feeling Good Dead Star SS (USA) Hysteria (USA) Starlight Undisclosed Desires Neutron Star Collision Performance + some other 'narrative' Uno Muscle Museum Unintended PiB New Born Time Is Running Out SBH Invincible Uprising Madness Narrative Sunburn Bliss Hysteria SFA KoC Other artist/stock footage MK Ultra Exogenesis Survival Unsustainable Isolated System Follow Me (alt) They're quite diverse really. And I think the 'good' once can be drawn from quite a few of the categories. I just hope that Supremacy is a bit more than a straight up performance but I guess Warner don't want to invest much money into a video which probably won't be seen that much anyway...

Butrus Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I think (and hope) it will be something like NSC vid which was not that bad at all (of course I mean the Twilight-free clean version ) Performance+some video and lighting effects and this one is my favourite video from the recent years (and it's a performance one) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBENjCPS8LI it looks sooo delicious from the visual and artistic standpoint in my opinion of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I always looked at videos like commercials for the band's albums, in a way... I just don't see their place in the world now that they're never actually played anywhere. Maybe this is different for other countries, but MTV hasn't played music videos in the US in at least a decade, and you have to go out of your way to find music videos. Not that YouTube if "out of your way"... but is it as effective if I'm searching for what I want to see? Not really... They seem like a waste of money to me, unless they're so spectacular (or terrible) they go massively viral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Espacially considering how noone is going to really actively watch a mv today anyway because they're all so obsessed with their smartphones and do thousands of things at the same time.

Anyway, they are huge Muse fans and get their listeners to make their own music videos to be played online on the show each week, and this week they made their own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaking Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 If I had to guess it would be that they shortened the first guitar solo. Probably cut it in half. Just a guess though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a guess though. The very start of the intro is nearly non-existent. The first verse vocals come in straight after the riff (which sounds bloody weird lol), and the second half of it are gone (so it goes straight in to "the time has come...". The first part of the guitar solo is gone also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
