Your favourite guitar riff/solo on T2L ?

[Mr. ORANGE]

What is your favourite riff/solo or just generally a guitar part on The 2nd Law ? I'm hoping there isn't similar thread around here (I couldn't find one)...

 

Mine is either Unsustainable or guitar work in every chorus of Animals...But you know, tough choice...

[kueller]

Pretty much all of Animals is something I'd put on the top level of Muse's guitar work.

 

Wubwub middle section is also fantastic, and I love the toan in the 2nd verse of Survival.

I love the line that leads to "Add more rules" - it's amazing... :-)

It's bend more rules

[Clunge]

Supremacy riff, Panic Station wah, Survival riffage, Animals in general, Save Me breakdown, Liquid State in general.

 

Some good bits. Survival takes it for me though.

[Peter.]

the riff after the first "I'm gonna wiiiin" and the heavy guitar during the second "verse" in Survival. nothing beats that.

[Strangeseas]

Hands down, the Survival riff is the best riff ever. It's the best thing in the universe (beside peanut butter)

Peanut butter sucks.

 

 

But yes, Survival is the best Muse riff ever.

No.

 

 

No.

Your beard sucks Okay it's a lie.

 

Second best riff ever.

 

 

 

 

And I love the the Animals riffs. (Who does not?)

[Alec Ferris]

Survival riff, the grooves on Survival's bridge and the solo on Panic Station- very Morelloish, but in a much poppier way.

[Hopix]

Survival sliding riff is, as others have said, pretty much Muse's best riff ever.

[Clunge]

Second best riff ever.

 

 

I'm glad someone pointed this out .

 

Amplifier > Muse in the riff stakes.

 

Survival post intro riff is killer though. Best bit of guitaring Muse have come up with probably since the New Born riff.

Agreed. New Born would be their second best riff ever in my opinion.

 

Amplifier riffs are bloody fantastic, but I'd say they're on par with Muse, generally.

Found this really difficult. Was going to vote for Animals chorus but voted for Survival first riff for the sake of how it made me feel when I first heard it, and how it almost came out of nowhere

[Hopix]

Also, the poll is missing Panic Station funk riff and liquid state.

[Flor Amarillo]

Great poll Supremacy has a good riff, Animals is the best song... Well, i prefer Survival solo

[Bells]

The Survival riffage is just blah blah blah on the guitar. I voted Unsustainable and I really love the guitar parts on Animals.

Well, I agree it's not radically new, but it's not forgettable IMHO and I like it...I like Unsustainable more though - it's so original, new and cool...

 

Animals has got great guitar work too - the last chorus is an amazing hype...

 

T2L isn't much of a guitar album (for Muse standard - not like OOS or BHaR) but when there's a guitar, it's really good and catchy...Defo better guitarwork then on The Resistance... :-)

[Bliss85]

my vote goes to Unsustainable! such a bizarre song comes with an impressive riff. that song got me
