tp90 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 It's impressive that he's doing the same motions during the guitarsolo since 2006:facepalm: Get lost in the music and just don't care or bring back the shuffledance:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacjens Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I've always really liked this version of Hysteria. I like how loud the guitar is mixed (and handlebar 'tache Chris ). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dskBZqxwuGE Every now and then i re-discover how awesome Hysteria is and that video did a better job than ever. Such a shame they don't play it with this crunchy and mega sound anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyP117 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 That's such a great version, not seen it for a while. The part at 2:14 where Matt and Chris are headbanging is unision is one of my fav Muse live moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I like the version of TIRO from that gig: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyPLDfVesWQ I still enjoyed Hysteria live on the Drones Tour gigs I caught, although it might've helped I failed to see it at all on The 2nd Law tour. Same with Stockholm Syndrome, even if I only caught that at Brighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Damn, Matt's vocals really were on form at that gig. Still can't remember the last time I was excited by a performance of TIRO though tbh I think I just don't like the song in general at this point.

Jazzthief Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Tbh, I wouldn't mind Follow Me making a live return as it was pretty damn immense live imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Tbh, I wouldn't mind Follow Me making a live return as it was pretty damn immense live imo I imagine Matt would've sounded a wreck if he'd tried to sing it on this tour tbf. Only saw it once but I don't really remember it and ain't keen on the studio version so I'm not fussed. I think MK, US, IBTY, Animals and Survival (though he probs couldn't do that either) are the only ones I really care about out of the forgotten newer stuff.

forevermusic Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 In terms of 2nd Law, I think I like Supremacy more than some people on here. I enjoy the sound of the big Drop A riffs. Follow Me I wasn't really bothered about live, even if the laser show the first time I caught it was kick-ass. To some degree, a lot of that album is better studio than live, which is a bit weird. Damn, Matt's vocals really were on form at that gig. Still can't remember the last time I was excited by a performance of TIRO though tbh I think I just don't like the song in general at this point. I still like TIRO and its live performances. Sure, its fairly straight-forward pop, but I still find it fun. Moreso than Starlight or Uprising, at least.

Zepp Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I'd also like Follow Me to pop up now and then, especially if it could give Madness a break, but yeah given Matt's shape lately it's really unlikely. People were worried after TR tour and then T2L tour happened so hopefully Matt will surprise us on the next tour... Although I really fear for his falsetto.

kueller Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 There wasn't a lot of fear after The Resistance Tour though. He was still nailing Bliss falsettos here and there and also hit the high note in Hyper Music for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I was writing a loong reply but honestly, who hasn't gotten bored of my ranting about vocals at this point? So short answer: During TR we were mostly just calling Matt lazy, which was basically what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was still nailing Bliss falsettos here and there and also hit the high note in Hyper Music for the first time. Hyper Music? You mean the A4? That was L/R after the tour and, that's my point, I think most of us were more than happily surprised with Matt's vocals at both gigs, seeing as he'd been avoiding difficult material throughout the tour. Semantics aside, I think we all agree though; his falsetto was good when he used it on TR tour, but he was keeping it to the minimum and avoiding hard chest notes. Calling him lazy is an interpretation, a declining voice could have been a different possible interpretation back then. Hence why I'm worried about his obviously strained head voice. (but still secretly hoping) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 The laziness argument seemed pretty confirmed when T2L turned out to be the best era for his vocals. He's still lazy (doesn't rehearse, doesn't exercise) but I came to doubt that was actually the entire problem this time around; it just certainly didn't help.

Con101 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I know. It's sounded so shit for years now. It's made even more dull by Interlude as well. Actually, I thought Hysteria at Download last year sounded pretty decent in person. Then I saw it on Sky Arts and I stand by it, strong performance imo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFnWudOUbHY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunge Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I agree, certainly a better version. Some of the piss thin 2009/10 versions though... eurgch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I'd be up for dropping Interlude tbf. Not sure what it adds anymore, apart from a Matt vocal rest slot. Or at least if they have to, playing something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oy Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I'd be up for dropping Interlude tbf. Not sure what it adds anymore, apart from a Matt vocal rest slot. Or at least if they have to, playing something different. Interlude was great when it was first brought back to segue between Resistance and Hysteria on TR tour. Nowadays all it does is kill the flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyP117 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Next tour they should drop Interlude and the shortened Isolated System and bring back Forced In. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Interlude's just another one of those things that they started using, thought "yeah that's cool", and then drove into the ground by doing it every time for several years. Same with MWAH, the D&B jams that are basically different versions of Osaka, Back In Black, the TIRO sing-along, etc. Isolated System's in danger of going down the same route as well. I'll give them credit for stuff like Prelude before Starlight, Voodoo Child and the 'cheer-along' variation on the PIB fuzz-fuckery (even though I weirdly don't mind that so much despite it being the longest running of these gimmicks) on this tour. There's still plenty of already existing stuff I'd like to see them use to help clean out and replace or even just rotate with the stale things though: Forced In The Gallery Nishe Minimum Man Of Mystery Popcorn Piano Thing Host intro (why were you so short lived? ) Jimmy Jam Vuilstamen Prelude In G Minor on piano Kaoss Jam I still think they could do something similar to what they did with Host to Shine as well. Oh, and some sort of shortened instrumental version of Con-Science. Edit: Damn, I think that's my first legit 'long-winded Muse complaint' post in ages. I was doing so well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I'd say Nishe was done to death on The Resistance tour. But yeah, something different for Matt's vocal rest. Hell I'd happily take new riffs that aren't Township Rebellion + Endless Nameless after Stockholm... Township sounded better in Drop C after MOTP in Brighton anyway.

Jobby Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I'd say Nishe was done to death u'd b sayin wrong Honestly one of my favourite pieces of music they've ever done. Looking back, it still seems so weird that it was ever such a regular thing. It's pretty obscure even amongst hardcores so how they remembered it and actually thought to bring it back is beyond me. So glad I saw it in time <3 Also yeah, I'd obvs be totally down for some cool new stuff. I was just listing old stuff they could easily bring back to keep things fresh that wouldn't even take any effort. Jimmy Jam at the Eiffel Tower was a top surprise.

Don't get me wrong - its a nice piece of music. But I'd take something else from the "cool, weird ambient" songs as such an interlude first.
