Brace yourself for Revolt, its a good song, but it is a bit jarring first listen.

I think I had one of my biggest laughs of all time to Revolt. :LOL:

YOU CAN GROOOOW! Seriously though, it does get better.

No, it was a transcode. If you run it through Audacity, you can distinctly see where it cuts off. It was a 128kbps transcode turned into FLAC.

 

Was there two leaks? The original one I downloaded sounded like ass.

 

That's why when you go from Drill Sergeant to Psycho the volume drastically gets quieter.

 

All copies of [Drill Sergeant] were ripped from the youtube lyric video since Vash didn't upload anything before [JFK]. [JFK] onward were all FLAC, but there was another leak floating around at trash bitrates of the "full" album, all of the songs from the first half weren't ripped from the CD.

I'm more laughing at the

True

 

Oh god. Aftermath is beautiful. Little OTT but it's Muse for gods sake.

[CoolFunkMan]

Is it just me, or does it sound like this album cycle is going to be pretty short? From what they said during the Jo Whiley interview, after the UK/Europe tour next year, it sounds like they're done. Plus, they've already pretty much released most the tracks on YouTube. It's a shame if it turns out that way.

Globalist next! It's not CE part 2, just know that going in.

Listening now, the first part was absolutely gorgeous. Have a soft spot for slide guitar.

 

The verses sound good too!

Did people really think that the riffage should be longer??!?! It was the perfect length in my opinion. Epic as hell. Now for the piano part!

Yeah, didn't overstay its welcome.

All depends on what the the plan is after the initial world tour. They may plan an stadium tour again after the initial tour. I think they'll do the festival rounds again next year though. Got the album released at a perfect time.

Well,congrats if the piano part doesn't bore you. Lol

Feels good that the album is out. Now I can listen to other albums

You couldn't listen to other albums *before* Drones came out?

[lurkinglurkerlurksagain]

Well, now we can compare the albums to Drones and marvel at how much worse/better they are!

What a fantastic review. Sounds like a real muse fan.

Yep, I'm wondering the same, I think it has the perfect length. And what I like the most it's not just the riff, I love the backing vocals and the countdown is cool. The album already has enough guitar, but barely any piano...

I was too hyped to listen to anything else.

Agreed. The piano bit helps to calm/sadden the mood of the album before the song Drones. If the riff went into Drones, it would be jarring.
