serpentsatellite Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Outside of a bootleg concert here and there, I actually don't download things that I could purchase. That's what's the pisser about it. They have so far failed to tell me what triggered the alerts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander DeLarge Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Just get a VPN This. Initially I bought mine for piracy but I've found so many other uses for it, totally worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Yeah, honestly I'm really finding the ISP itself just does NOT want the bother. The impression I'm getting is they have to get the alerts from the content owners, and then when they do they are forced to press you about it. I had one warning from downloading a stupid SNL video years ago, but they so far haven't told me what the other ones were. I do know the reports all came from NBC or Warner, though, which has made me a bit nervous. I don't download things I could pay for just out of principle, so there's no need for me to have equipment to do it. Not that this hasn't made me rethink my stance on the issue...

Citizen_Eraser Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Does this mean we can post without ridicule? EDIT: Matt says that Drones is Muse's best album... DigitalSpy They've said that about every album. And then apparently forget that because as part of the quote he said he hasn't been able to say that for a while. Absolution is their best album with OoS close behind and I don't see that changing with Drones unless The Handler, Revolt, Aftermath, The Globalist and Drones are mindblowing to combat the meh we've gotten so far.

I've downloaded at her house and gotten her emails/letters and threats. At my house nothing ever happens lol. And I dl way more at my house.

Aeterna Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 If the songs continue to be as good as they have been, this may be my second favourite album behind OoS. I can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone_Star_Lynch Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I think it is likely to bump BHaR out of third place. Depending on the quality of unheard songs, there is a slim chance it will even take Absolution out of 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Is it hard to believe that every album is their best? I don't think they'd leave recording thinking unsatisfied about the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrebleRose689 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I know there are mixed reactions around here, but I have honestly loved every song we've heard so far. I have such high hopes for this album -- I feel certain it will blow TR and T2L out of the water! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander DeLarge Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 The way I'll judge the album is whether I skip a track every time after I do it with Invincible, Plug in Baby, Feeling Good and Thoughts of a Dying Atheist, doubt they'll top Citizen Erased and City of Delusion, but so far they're 4/4 for songs I won't skip and The Globalist and Defector sound fantastic so I'd say that's a pretty solid indication that I'll enjoy it. I'm more worried about being annoyed by the interlude tracks than I am with actual song quality at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Eraser Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 lol it already has with Psycho and Reapers alone MK Ultra, Animals better than both those songs by quite a margin. Didn't even have to pull out Exogenesis for that one lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen_Eraser Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Is this serious?? LOL three people in a row who don't like MK Ultra? It's one of the few recent Muse songs that is actually their signature rock sound and does not have extremely straight forward lyrics and overly obvious influences. r u sure about dat 1?? none of them hit as hard as the two I listed~ And yeah, Reapers I still think is the worst of the 4 we've heard. It's Muse trying to do 80's rock and has too many obvious influences. Doesn't sound like Muse aside from Matt's voice. Verses are great though. Psycho I was good with at first but I wish it was less campy and the verses sung in a completely different style considering how the pre-chorus is delivered.

Doesn't sound like Muse aside from Matt's voice. Verses are great though. People are so polarized on Reapers! It's my personal favorite out of the four we've heard (I know a few others who agree with me), but I also know many people who share your opinion... Guess the studio version will be the real test!

I see what you mean, but I think live performances are a pretty good indication of song quality -- I mean, pretty much every song is better than (or at least as good as!) the album version! (In my opinion, at least!) For me, it's Reapers > Dead Inside > Psycho > Mercy, but I honestly love all four songs (including Mercy) in different ways (and Dead Inside & Psycho sometimes switch position based on my mood ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
