That Little Animal Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I'm looking forward to this one a lot now that I know it'll be a cappella. Finally some layered vocals will make some actual sense. I'm hoping for something in the style of Elliot Smith's I Didn't Understand, that would be lovely. Did the description say it was just Matt? Or Matt and Chris?

GrandOmegaBoss Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I'm interested by this song I assume it will be odd, I still don't know what to expect though
Spectrum IV Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Did the description say it was just Matt? Or Matt and Chris? Dom will be staccato rapping into an oversaturated mic.
aleluman Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) The songs ends with a section of this: also, lyrics: “My mother, my father, my sister and my brother, my son and my daughter killed by drones” Edited May 19, 2015 by aleluman
jonisdead Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 The songs ends with a section of this: also, lyrics: “My mother, my father, my sister and my brother, my son and my daughter killed by drones” And ends with an "Amen". I totally expect Matt to sing "kyrie eleison" as a snide reference to Mercy. I knew this album had religious overtones
Jobby Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 also, lyrics: “My mother, my father, my sister and my brother, my son and my daughter killed by drones” I was really interested in the topic of drones and how the album would cover it but this is sounding seriously ham-fisted, even by Matt's standards
Wickerman Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 When I read "killed by drones" I can't help but sing the Reapers prechorus lol
Spectrum IV Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 If this doesn't sound like Cara Mia I am going to be SO disappointed.
aleluman Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 If this doesn't sound like Cara Mia I am going to be SO disappointed. I was actually thinking the same
That Little Animal Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 The songs ends with a section of this: also, lyrics: “My mother, my father, my sister and my brother, my son and my daughter killed by drones” I hope his vocal delivery on this one is better than the last time he attempted to sing a classical song. That bit in IBTY isn't exactly stellar.
Hat Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I hope his vocal delivery on this one is better than the last time he attempted to sing a classical song. That bit in IBTY isn't exactly stellar. His chest voice has improved since, but his falsetto has deteriorated, sadly. So basically my answer is "maybe, maybe not"
serpentsatellite Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I used to think that would make me really sad, as the falsetto was some of what attracted my attention in the first place... but my god the rest of his voice has gotten good.
jonisdead Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 His chest voice has improved since, but his falsetto has deteriorated, sadly. So basically my answer is "maybe, maybe not" But I'm sure he also recorded a thousand takes for this. Given the overdubbing too, it'll probably sound like what Glorious did with guitars except this time Mutt's unleashed a million Matts.

jonisdead Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Great, now that's in my head... Just listen to this in its entirety, it'll cure your sickness. I'm on my second playthrough
Mattestro Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Just listen to this in its entirety, it'll cure your sickness. I'm on my second playthrough Still can't decide if I like the idea of this or not So there's potentially 2 covers/segments of covers on the album?
jonisdead Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Still can't decide if I like the idea of this or not So there's potentially 2 covers/segments of covers on the album? I said cover earlier but they said Matt did an arrangement reminiscent of this. I doubt it'll be exact or anything, but Matt is actually singing in English and stuff so I wouldn't be concerned about "lack of originality" or anything since a capella is a very new and potentially cool thing for Muse in general.

Oh, fair enough! I am interested for it, but for some reason I don't feel too hyped
