Your favourite guitar riff/solo on T2L ?

[Dominic.]

It's funny cos the actual tab for Unsustainable is so dull, but the use of effects is very cool so I think it is a good shout for best riff

 

I'd probably go for Supremacy though, nice big beastly thumper. Survival is fucking huge live too

[Bliss85]

yeah that's it - the fact that it is an experimental song is what makes it sound so cool

[Dominic.]

Will say though that I'm not entirely satisfied with Matt's Supremacy guitar tone live. Loses some of it's punch

[kueller]

I thought it sounded excellent at the Brits

[Seaking]

The tremolo sounds awful. Turn that shit off Bellamy.

[Dominic.]

I dunno there's just something about it I don't quite like. I mean it still sounds pretty good, but not perfect

[kueller]

I never found the album tone that great to be honest.

[hoodoo oz]

I would say the main riff in Supremacy.

[Dominic.]

Supremacy riff came from this didn't it?

I don't know how to get it to start at a certain time fuck knows, but 3:48

Supposedly. That riff is miles better than Supremacy's though.

 

You can copy paste from exact time but then you can't embed it (on this board).

I think Matt mentioned it in an interview once, around the time Survival came out or something. You can see the similarities anyway

Pretty sure the story came from a fan who met them outside the studio while they were still recording the album and apparently Matt said to them that there was a song on the album that used a drop A riff that came from that one they did in CE. Don't know if he actually said in an interview though.

This is what I remember.

Pffft something like that then. He definitely said it somewhere though

 

I like it when you find 'early versions' of songs in live doodles. Like the MK Ultra riff being played before Starlight years ago, that was quite cool

Really? I didn't know that. If you have a link can you post it?

Literally was just looking for it but can't find it anymore. Used to be a link to it on the musewiki page for the song but it's disappeared

[Dominic.]

found it after some scavenging

Wondering now what other early riffs/snippets of stuff we've heard before they were turned into songs

 

Take a Bow

B&H

MK Ultra

USoE was one I think? Swear I may have heard something about Cross Pollination too

Supremacy

NSC

Stockholm Syndrome

Ya Cross Pollination is in some video in a studio. Not one from a live gig. Then again I may be thinking of B&H.

Might be Abbey road, I remember something about that. And I think USoE was live somewhere...I think

 

B&H was definitely played live, and on some Japanese TV thing

[kueller]

Abbey Road had something similar to the ending of NSC

(beginning)

 

B&H was in this old video

 

I remember something vaguely resembling USOE in some BH&R era video. I don't remember Cross Pollination.

Wow that sounds exactly like it. Never heard that before. Odd considering I have listened to the performance at Abbey Road quite a few times.

Yeah I remember going back to it after the song came out and noticing it.

 

Also, I remember when I heard the Seattle pro shot I thought "this piano part should be in a song"

[Clom]

wow that's so crazy and experimental opening with starlight that;s insane
