kueller Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Anyway do people actually get excited and care about music videos anymore? Yes. I don't know why people keep thinking otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaSarahS Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Yes. I don't know why people keep thinking otherwise. Right? You would think YouTube views would clarify that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibros Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Cool concept in what way exactly? It's just the band playing, a couple of dancers and sometimes two drones flying over both. I liked the idea of drones observing the dancers. If the choreography was better at telling the story (of a girl turning the guy into someone like her) and also the cuts were made with more thought it could have been a solid simple video. But meh, it's boring. don't think I'd ever watch it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Your cute animal pictures make me feel more content/warm/fuzzy about Muse than Muse does right now. Especially your sig. You clearly deserve a raise. Also, I'm just not that into dancing, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

defector Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 2. The cuts to Matt looking into the camera totally breaks the aesthetic, with the rest filmed in an observational manner. The beginning and end of this video have characters looking into the camera. I don't see that the aesthetic is broken by it occuring in between then?

Redwingsrock Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I typically don't expect much from Muse videos. The only good one they actually did, in my opinion, was for Hysteria. Plus, I don't get the hoopla over interpretive dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesseract Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'm rather surprised. I watched the music video and the song has actually grown on me a bit. Yeah same. Would have vastly preferred something different as an album opener, but the vocal melody and solo are nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I'm still disappointed there were no drones in the only time Matt actually says drones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 2. The cuts to Matt looking into the camera totally breaks the aesthetic, with the rest filmed in an observational manner. Yes. Indeed, that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I rather like the parts with the band, and the drones. Just not feeling the dancing bits, and don't think they meshed well with the music (and as has been said, didn't feel edited quite right.) Would have liked to see them do something different interspersed with the band clips to illustrate the narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Born Lee Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I typically don't expect much from Muse videos. The only good one they actually did, in my opinion, was for Hysteria. And that wasn't even an original concept. Surely Knights of Cydonia is worth a shout in that regard. Always thought Supermassive's vid was pretty good too, and Time is Running Out. I'm probably biased though, those videos being on TV were part of how I got into the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witz Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Sunburn is the best music video. This. Completely agree, I really like the new video and it is the best one they have done in a while but still nothing tops Sunburn's video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter. Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 hysteria is the best imo. a music video with the band themselves in it is doomed to be mediocre at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander DeLarge Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Knights of Cydonia>everything Dead Inside is one of the best things they've ever done. The video doesn't live up to it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentsatellite Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I never liked the Hysteria one, either. I think the only ones I've watched more than a handful of times are Bliss, SfA, TiRO, US SS, and Invincible. Nothing to do with whether the band is in them, or not. The band shots in this one were good, and could have looked really nice with a better narrative bit cut into them. As it was, the dust and military themes didn't mesh well or even make sense with the dancing... unless you already know what the album is about or read Matt's Twitter.

musekiddo Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 After just watching the video I've come to the conclusion that the first half of the song is boring and I don't start enjoying it till after the second verse. Muse don't do minimal well, they have always been known for their big, bombastic, layered sounds and should stick to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
