BigGeorge Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 @nomarpagan Mercy was.... interesting? It was very lackluster until the chorus hit. The chorus sounded heavy as fuck. It's definitely single material. Dammit, someone beat me to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentsatellite Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 (edited) Mercy was the one we heard the epic riff for on the Making Of, right? I don't see that being between Glorious and Guiding Light tbh... I think the quote just was meant to mean "it's somewhere between amazing and shit." The best song and the worst (though I wouldn't attribute that to GL.) Edited May 10, 2015 by SerpentSatellite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonisdead Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Discussing "sounds like x song" is when I remove myself from this hype train because it all sounds dumb as hell with these comparisons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutioner Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 You'd think at least one or two people in the audience could go home and play the bassline or sing the melody from memory. Maybe that might still happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen_Eraser Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Why would it be a joke? It just happened 30 minutes ago Because the same person posted that The Handler was played earlier and got everyone excited and it seemed sketchy with zero confirmation before false alarming lol. Either way I'm staying up now lol. It's still early for you on the west coast too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying during the gig when some of us were in the tour thread he posted that the Handler was being played with no links or tweets or nothing. And then a few posts later said never mind. How do we know for sure a Mercy video surfaced other than someone saying so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the Muse reddit, a bunch of people said it was there then disappeared, there's a dead link there too and I'm trying to find a way to reverse enter it into a cache or something to find the username but no dice so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomesickSubterranean Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Just going by what we've heard so far (DI, Psycho, Reapers and Mercy live, and parts of Defector & The Globalist), I think I'll at least enjoy this a whole lot more than T2L.

jonisdead Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 yep if this is what we are to expect, ranked Abso OoS Showbiz BHR Drones T2L TR Origin of Symmetry Absolution Drones BHAR TR T2L Showbiz Just as I predicted for myself before. Assuming all the other songs are the same quality as say, Mercy. I can see myself being surprised and this can potentially dethrone Absolution.

shamu11 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Sounds kinda like starlight but heavier (maybe mixed with follow me a bit)! I feel like the studio version will sound awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Dead Inside 8/10 Psycho 7/10 (The length brings it down. Especially live. It's great, but honestly, another chorus and riff repetition?) Mercy 5/10 Reapers 6.5/10 (this one is the most likely to change once the studio version is released) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
