web feature Deezer Closeup with Muse interview and playlist

[muse samuse]

Matt, Dom and Chris talk about their influences with the streaming service Deezer.

 

[Gemsy]

hahaaaa

such dork

 

[Gemsy]

Dom seems cheerful as ever

Oh I take it back, he smiled

[Johi36]

Awwwwwwwwwww...

 

But as much as I like Matt, isn't it a tiny bit mean of him to always speak of "his" albums? It's THEIRS!

 

No I have to continue watching, I'm only 2 minutes in.

[JessicaSarahS]

hahaaaa

such dork

Matt's face when Uno starts Also, is it me or is that intro slightly sped up? Sounds brutal. Part of me wishes whoever sorted out the playlist had slipped in Creep, just for some #extr4ch33kybanterrr.

 

Interesting that he said he feels like he can perform more with a guitar, I'm guessing that's why we get less piano songs these days. Kinda had that theory for a couple of years tbh.

Well he's said it a few times in interviews.

[Jobby]

Oh, don't think I'd heard him mention it before. Or maybe that's where I got it from and just forgot

[forevermusic]

I liked Chris' reaction when Save Me started.

 

Yeah also agreed that Uno sounded sped up a little bit. But it sounded great.

hahaaaa

such dork

 

 

This isn't helping me maintain my anger.

[SarahMuse]

Great interview

I wish there was a Radiohead song I really wanna see Matt's reaction to it

[serpentsatellite]

I thought it was Dom that had an issue with Radiohead.

[SarahMuse]

I thought it was Dom that had an issue with Radiohead.

 

I heard that too but i wanna see his reaction because of the comparisons between him and thom

[Jobby]

I thought it was Dom that had an issue with Radiohead.

 

To my knowledge, it's Thom who has a problem with Muse. IIRC, Dom went up to him/them at an awards show years ago (2006 maybe?) to have a chat and tell them he really liked them but apparently he was told to piss off.

 

That, and Thom himself has said in an interview (a really old one tbf, but still) that he wishes Muse would 'crash and burn' or something along those lines.

[serpentsatellite]

Sounds inline with what I'd read, I think it was something along the lines of Matt making a joke about how Dom got snubbed by Thom, which is a bit mean. For both of them.

WTF :o I have read before that thom is mean but this is too much do u have a link of the interview?

[Jobby]

, first minute or two.

 

Not exactly what I remembered, he actually says that if they go down in a ball of flames then they deserve it.

[serpentsatellite]

The one where Matt brings it up was an Italian interview with some magazine that I'm sure started with a P.

I remember that I never saw an actual scan of it, I assume it was translated by a fan, and the only place I saw it was on here with some sarcastic comments spliced in.

Certainly late '09 or early '10.

 

Matt tells the interviewer to ask Dom about how good friends he is with Radiohead, and Dom says they insulted him, I think.

Pretty much, Dom said: “Splendid terms my arse. I respect them musically, but the last time I met him we almost started a fight. He treated me badly, looking down on me. Matt, do you spread around this bollocks?”

 

I seem to remember the same incident being mentioned another time as well, but I've no idea where. Apparently Colin's fine with them though

 

not to turn this thread into another 'radiohead vs. muse: a history'

[serpentsatellite]

That was a depressing interview, all around.

[LewisF]

Didn't Thom once say something along the lines of "we created these clones of ourself, and they went on to become Muse?"

 

And yeah I've certainly seen the Dom one Jobby said before

 

I wonder what Radiohead's (Thom's in particular) reaction would be if they met up these days. Thom is meant to be more chilled out now or so I heard

Yes, it was Panorama.

[Gemsy]

Wow i thought the radiohead thing was all a wind up, that's actually really annoyed me. Can't imagine the arrogance involved in telling someone to piss off when they aporoach you, are they 12 years old ffs

I've read some Radiohead fans' opinions around in which they think Thom is a genius musically speaking, but also a bit of a d**khead humanly speaking.

But it seems that he has toned down, now that he's older.

[serpentsatellite]

I try really hard not to let the personal lives of artists influence how I feel about their work - outside of really extreme cases - but it sucks to see someone take a shit on a fan, no matter who that fan is.
