BigGeorge Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I think that the tremolo riff should have been longer, it's now one of my favourite riffs they've ever written, and one of the heaviest too They should have written a song based off of it honestly.

GrandOmegaBoss Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I think that the tremolo riff should have been longer, it's now one of my favourite riffs they've ever written, and one of the heaviest too I think another minute would probably have been too much IMO. I agree that it could have been repeated/developed more but I think a minute would be pushing it. I suppose a minute would be overstaying it's welcome, but I think they should have done more with the beautiful tremolo bit and resolved that section better 'cos it cuts kind of abruptly I find.

Finn. Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 What happened to the items being dropped in the making of vid? Precisely for that i think there is an extended version of the Globalist unreleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGeorge Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Precisely for that i think there is an extended version of the Globalist unreleased. I'm pretty sure they're in there. Super low in the mix, but I hear them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jangdiin Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 What happened to the items being dropped in the making of vid? Lol? I've only heard the song one time and it was very clear and direct in the beginning. It's supposed to sound like gunshots. You can hear them in the beginning.

You can hear them in the beginning. Oh. I thought they went on for quite long in the making of. I'll listen again, but when I posted that I was around 1 minute and couldn't hear anything. edit: oh ok can hear it. Very soft though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAlex Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Just had a vision of this song live, during the metal riff, when the kick comes in there are hooligan "oi's" in the background... Imagine an audience doing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewisF Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 They should have written a song based off of that riff honestly. Yeah I agree. Tbh I think they should have made 3 seperate songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonisdead Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Yeah I agree. Tbh I think they should have made 3 seperate songs The song as it is stands up well on its own, but it could have easily gone on for 15 minutes and not lost steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I'll never get that image of Matt giggling and dropping things out of my head when I listen to it. I so wish I hadn't watched that first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topo_musero Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I consider The Globalist a 13 minutes long song, I know that in the tracklist The Globalist and Drones are separated, but I think they should be one track. They flow well, and I can't understand one without the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark_Phoenix Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I think I was expecting too much from The Globalist when it released, or maybe I was expecting it to sound completely Origin-era. Either way, it's an okay tune after a few listens. I'm going to try and put together a crossover of The Globalist and Citizen Erased, with some added improv and ideas of how I was expecting The Globalist to sound. Here's the first little jam I put together in a few mins, it's just a bit of a mash-up, nothing special so far: [YT]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLvvg61T_NA[/YT] I'm currently writing up a combination of the arpeggiated interlude of CE and the first verse of TG, hopefully it won't turn out shit Sorry I just had a huge laugh when listening to your crossover video... Without being mean, this is exactly why some of you people disappointed by The Globalist should just sit down, listen to the master, and practice. You clearly don't have the skills man... The Globalist is probably Muse's best song yet, and a lot people are complaining because it doesn't sound like Citizen Erased, or because of the piano part. Come on, Matt is much more intelligent than this. It would have been so boring had he given in to your fanboy desires and brought back the CE riff for 30 seconds or so. It would have been so predictable if the second part continued the last riff. Instead we have a beautiful piano part. Fucking amazing. The easy way out would have been to do what you're trying to do, mix both riffs (with a lot more skills obviously... ), but what they wrote is exactly what needed to be done. It will eventually grow on you all and you'll understand why it's the best piece of the album (Handler is close though, amazing as well). Muse fans who think they know better than Matt... hilarious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
