Furygirl Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Starlight was a closer the last time around. Good point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonisdead Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Don't compare a studio version with a live one I meant live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattestro Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Only real problem I have is the excess solo and the falsetto, both of which are most likely better on the studio version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I meant live. I'd only compare two videos of the songs from the same source actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 is there any video of SS? interested to see what that weird pace was all about the "weird pacing" thing was about the setlist order up to that point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwingsrock Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Yeah, it definitely is awesome except I think that Matt completely dropped the ball. Again he has the opportunity to produce a cool riff but he just plays what sounds like feedback and makes the guitar sound even less interesting than during the solo of Psycho. I almost wonder if it will even be part of the song, or if it is just another extended jam that Muse like to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, I guess only time will tell. I do like the outro but it just kind of sticks out like a sore thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesWS Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Also, did not get an acdc vibe apart from a very small snippet of the solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornfellow Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 it's so... un-muse and so... classic rock Sigh I agree. Even stuff like madness , which deviates from their rock stuff , still sounds musey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black4bird Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I kinda fail to see how the falsetto in the chorus sounds like classic rock? Instrumentally I agree it has a classic rock vibe, but the falsetto sounds very poppy to me. Besides the fact that it sounds kinda weak, I think it sounds very Musey.

canuckmuser14 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Better with every listen. I'm not a big fan of the falsetto in the chorus either, but the guitar is pretty sick throughout the whole song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Hearing it it doesn't really sound as AC/DC as I expected from everyone saying it, except maybe the very basic drum beat. The verse is more melodic than anything I heard from that band, and probably is more of like older metal songs like someone mentioned in the chat. I thought that was nice. Chorus I don't even really know. I can't make out too much from it so I guess I'll save that opinion for the studio version where it's sure to be more pronounced. So overall I guess I'd say it's ok. Psycho was also ok. Looks like the whole album is turning out to be ok. But that's ok. Ok? Needing some more atmospheric stuff though. On large or small scale.

kueller Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I've been listening to some classic rock-ish or at least older stuff on occasion lately so maybe the influence on this album is just kinda blending with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) This I absolutely loved the song from the first full YT vid I saw. I don't understand the extent of some of the sniffiness about classic rock on here, I think the chorus sounds great (return of the distorted vocals as well, which is always a plus). The verses have that TSP or MKU urgency about them and the outro is nice and heavy as well (and am I imagining the sound of an air raid siren or something playing over it?) Also, is it just me or is there the most blatant but brief homage to the Back in Black solo at 3:00? Same here. I loved it. It's a bit raw and solos feel a bit improvised. It also brought back the times when Crying Shame and Assassin were played for the first time live, same raw feeling. LOVE IT! BTW I can also hear the air raid siren and I think it adds a sense of urgency to the song As far as Classic Rock goes I think Guiding Light has the cheesy classic rock ballad feeling and I will take this anytime over Guiding Light or NSC Edited March 16, 2015 by Hyper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumpypotato Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 it's so... un-muse and so... classic rock The verse was probably the best bit, and even then it's not great. It wouldn't be a Muse album without at least one song I skip, and maybe it will be better in the context of the album and when I'm not hearing it through a shitty recording, but this does have me a bit concerned. That solo can sod off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exogenesisman Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 LOVE the new song, what the hell is everyone complaining about? Great use of the falsetto, amazing if somewhat improvised guitar solo THATS A FREAKIN MINTUE+ LONG, sweet riff, excellent outro (granted that may or may not be apart of the finished studio version) and on top of that I don't think Chris' Bass has sounded this good on new songs (this song and Psycho) since the days of Absolution. So my question to you so called "hardcore Musers" would be if this song doesn't do it for you (keep in mind rough/first live version) then what EXACTLY do you want a NEW muse song to sound like? I mean I just feel if you don't at the very least think this song is decent then the only conclusion that I think Muse could come to to make some of the Hardcore Musers happy would be to re-record Origin of Symmetry and name it something different.
