Dee3Dee Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Whistled melody? Oh dear god please no, please don't let that happen! I don't want Matt to whistle in my ears for thirty seconds! I hoped he was just fooling around and not actually recording his whistling D: I would have thought that Matt whistling into a microphone was enough of a tip-off, but apparently not.

serpentsatellite Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 U2 and Queen again Seriously, though, the comparisons are so old, you can't count on it being accurate, or just stuck in everyone's heads. Especially the Queen one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandOmegaBoss Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Anyone thinking Revolt and/or Aftermath will be Explorers 2.0? I was hoping for Blackout 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would much prefer them to write stuff similar to Radiohead than fucking Queen. God I hate Queen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatchHellBlues Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Why can't they do some Zeppelin esque stuff instead of fucking U2/Queen once more FFS! Reviews I'd take with a pinch of salt though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-FutureStar- Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 They all sound promising apart from Defector and Revolt... Defector sounded good from the 'Making Of' so I guess it should be alright. Revolt though. plz no U2. plz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandOmegaBoss Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Even the little bits of vocals we heard in the Defector video raised a warning flag for me. I actually like what we heard of Defector including the vocals. It seemed like Fury had it been produced in BHaR era Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattestro Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Quite concerned about Revolt, excited for Aftermath now and just have no idea on what to expect for Drones. Edit: Actually, With or Without You is one of the only U2 songs I don't mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee3Dee Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 All in all, most songs sound fairly promising. Especially The Handler, The Globalist and I'm really curious to hear Drones now. I'd be happier without the Queen and U2 bullshit though. It does unfortunately sound like another mixed bag like TR and T2L. That's a bit of a shame, really.

Finn. Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Why can't they do some Zeppelin esque stuff installing of fucking U2/Queen once more FFS! You didn't hear 70s Queen. 70s Queen > Zeppelin. Anyday. The turn into U2 in Big Freeze scared me to be honest, but i'm glad to see it was just an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandOmegaBoss Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I'm just gonna completely open my mind for Drones and Globalist and accept whatever weird experiment they decided to toss at the end of the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Well, my expectations for this album have dropped a bit. I'm dreading Revolt. I didn't like the brief snippet of Queen-y vocals in Defector and it sounds like they're gonna be fairly prominent, which is a shame 'cause the instrumentals sounded pretty decent. Aftermath is a bit of a vague description, could be decent, could be awful. Drones sounds interesting though. Maybe like an a capella Soldier's Poem?

Queen were a very different band in the 70s compared to the poppy 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwingsrock Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Sounds like Queen and U2? In other words, it probably sounds like Muse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
