Tobiiiaaas Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 This is officially the most anticipated track on Drones for me. So what are people's thoughts, will this be a stand-alone story or will it continue from Aftermath? Matt said the narrative comes to an end in Aftermath and that The Globalist has its own self-contained narrative. There'll probably be some thematic continuation though.

White Heat Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 So we're getting this live, plus the original Citizen Erased (according to Matt (probably bullshit)) I don't think they play it at festivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobiiiaaas Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 So we're getting this live, plus the original Citizen Erased (according to Matt (probably bullshit)) Where did Matt say this? Because I was hoping they'd play both together live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisF Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 I don't think they play it at festivals. I reckon they could play it at a few but definitely not all, hoping this is a staple in th main tour though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what are people's thoughts, will this be a stand-alone story or will it continue from Aftermath? Aftermath is the end of the protagonists POV. The Globalist and Drones will be part of the same concept, just from a general POV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickerman Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think this could have the mobster/Godfather-like solo/riff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisF Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think this could have the mobster/Godfather-like solo/riff... Agreed, it could start off like that, all sinister and eerie, and develop into something huge, and epic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iLoveOldMuse Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Oh speaking of CE II & Godfather ... at least, finally, one of my million Muse wishes came true. iLoveOldMuse 06-03-2015, 10:48 AM CE II will / should be longer than CE I. It will be like The Godfather, 2 > 1. http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?p=10539576 I am going to keep an eye on this one with lowered expectations now.

Tobiiiaaas Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Matt: The first half sounds like something from a film, then it goes to a middle section that metal, then the outro is a big piano ballad. (From Q magazine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobiiiaaas Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 So basically strings-->crazy riffage -->outro à la CE? Mind = blown Certainly sounds that way! Matt says it's one of his favourite tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DramaQueen. Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Strings? Could it be the Instagram clip with the Milan strings then? Also, looking forward that piano ballad ending, although I don't wanna think of this song as a CE sequel, as I want to keep my expectations low (or not as high as if I was thinking of a sequel) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(From Q magazine) If that's the case, I definitely think Drones will be something like Redemption or Ruled By Secrecy (preferably the latter). Also, Milan strings and that 7-string IG clip maybe (not sure if they're in the same key)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musekiddo Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Thanks. So apparently The Handler's middle section has similarities to Showbiz the song. I remember Matt mentioning something about that on twitter earlier this year I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Dat description... Not sure if "piano ballad" must be taken positively. The most recent Muse "piano ballad" is Explorers. Thanks. So apparently The Handler's middle section has similarities to Showbiz the song. I remember Matt mentioning something about that on twitter earlier this year I think? yeah it does make sense, I guess.

serpentsatellite Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 If this really is the song that sort of inspired the mindset of the entire album, I'm really, really looking forward to hearing it. Of course, Matt sort of laughed through the entire thematic description of the song in an interview, so I'm also a bit apprehensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
