FabriPav Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 radi/ready is ok, but calised / to know is too different. And I'm hearing a "to", not a "ca" there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regilistic Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RoO4-ezNG4 Definitely hearing 'suicide' during the first chorus at 0.34. But after re-listening I'm actually hearing "ready to know". I just can't hear the 'alised' that would belong to radicalised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always heard something like "ready" and then a hard c. Radicalised makes sense but sounds silly so I went for "to know" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 And the trust is gone, and we're all expendable? "I'm just a pawn" I've always heard something like "ready" and then a hard c. Radicalised makes sense but sounds silly so I went for "to know" Same, always wondered what it could be if there was that 'c' sound there but "radicalised" makes sense. I just can't hear the 'alised' that would belong to radicalised. He trails off at "radicaliii...", quite a common thing for Matt to do live.

Citizen_Eraser Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) For one, Matt has sang the chorus' different a few times or moved them around. There seems to be two versions. The chorus seems to end on a different line so maybe they're both right depending on which chorus. And for people not hearing radicalised there is a version where the vocals are a lot more clear and it is pretty obvious he says "Now I am radicalized" Second chorus around 2:40 Also in the second verse from this video it's pretty obvious that it is not "war just moved up a gear" but its something with a similar amount of syllables. But after what sounds like "just" the next word is "be" or something that starts with a be sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEw37wrE4Vg Edited March 29, 2015 by Citizen_Eraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyjackk Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I'm hearing "You've got lies and deceit" Not We will rise from the sea as am i and yeah from that Brighton Dome one I do hear "suicide" at the end of the first chorus - although I do believe that Matts changing the choruses around a lot, singing them in different orders and such also in relation to the "radicalised" and "ready to know" discussion it does sound like Matt's singing radicalised but just cutting off the last syllable like he often does "radicaliiiii" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Radiator Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Reapers clicked with me instantly, from the first video uploaded from Belfast. I'm a sucker for a steady head-nodding beat, and the guitar solo doesn't seem too generic classic rock solo-y to me, its got that recognisable Bellamy inflection. I think it also has a lot of potential to have some very interesting textures mixing-wise, especially considering all the whammy in the solo. The outro is big too and I do like a big instrumental outro. Edit for typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musekiddo Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I think it's too long to be a single. Although New Born was, the radio edit was shit imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyjackk Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 this one definitely has radicalised at the end of the first chorus https://soundcloud.com/normancoopermusic/reapers-mastered-live-in-belfast-2015 - great audio as well, makes me appreciate the song even more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareeh Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 This is becoming my favourite song Muse have done in a loooooooooooong time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer29 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Yeah this is my favourite from what we've heard so far too. I hope for more of this on the album. I wasn't blown away by Defector, still love Psycho and Dead Inside though. I wouldn't allow myself to watch The Globalist section of the video . EDIT: Great audio by the way to whoever posted that.

willnz93 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 That riff/part before the chorus is absolutely incredible, I physically cannot help but headbang. I'm actually a bit disappointed that it isn't actually featured in the track more than twice. Am I the only one who thinks the track would be even better if a few cycles of that riff closed the song at the end? Great tune though! Really excited for the album after this one.

BTM Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I've only watched one performance of this song so as to not spoil the album release. I really liked what I heard though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blinkin fightuse Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Maaaaaan, I wish they released this as the first single and only song before the album release. Definitely becoming one of my more liked Muse post-BHaR songs. I can see this being their second single though, which would make me pretty darn happy.

Captain Radiator Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Am I the only one who thinks the track would be even better if a few cycles of that riff closed the song at the end? (I might catch some flak for this, but here's my 2 cents...) Too much of a good riff can be a negative I think - my main gripe with Psycho (for example) is how often it goes back to the main riff, which is very simplistic and yes it sounds great, but it just comes up too often and ends up being very repetitive. Looking back at the classics of Muse riffery, the most memorable riffs (examples here being SS and New Born) only crop up a couple of times in the song, albeit for several repetitions in that instance, just not every 20 seconds like in Psycho. Although, now I've said that, in Reapers the bass does keep repeating the riff throughout the first half of the guitar solo, then starts the chorus bass in the second half. It reminds me a lot of Queen's 'Dragon Attack,' in a way. edited; specification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RoO4-ezNG4 Definitely hearing 'suicide' during the first chorus at 0.34. But after re-listening I'm actually hearing "ready to know". I just can't hear the 'alised' that would belong to radicalised. Here's what I hear, without looking at any of the previous attempts to get a fresh look/listen. Home Is becoming a killing field There's a crosshair locked on my heart We know we're drones and there's no one behind the wheel Hellfire Wiping me out Killed By Drones Drones We will reap like a machine And blood is on the shore We get to see our love go (?) All I got is suicide War War just moved up a gear (?) And I think I can't handle the truth That I'm just a pawn and that we're all expendable Intermittedly expecting fire (???) Killed by Drones Drones Kill under my control When blood is on the shore We got reapers and horsemen (?) Now I am ready to die We will reap like a machine When blood is on the shore You got to see our love go (?) All you've got is boomerangs (????) Must give up my control When blood is on the shore Cause we're both reapers and horsemen (???) Yeah now I'm radicalized (?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
