Hat Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 And this is why I dislike these forums so much. Of course there are other examples out there. Want more? Search yourself. I'm not gonna write a 20-page article on that, but the same has happened to multiple other bands Wait, you honestly believe that there is a pattern of bands who reach a peak in their 40s? And no one asked you to write an article. Trying to make it look like people are being unreasonable doesn't work when all you really needed to do was namedrop some bands. And you do realise that this is all opinions, so it's not something you can just "search"? To some people, your favourite Nightwish album is their least favourite. Then we have another example just above where people can't agree on Metallica's albums. It's not like I can search to find when Muse released their best album. Do you honestly dislike boards because you're called out on nonsense? Well...I guess it's not that surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander DeLarge Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) There's an argument to be made that creators don't do as well when they're older but I don't think it starts at 40. I'd argue much older. I mean, look at the movie brats of the 1970s, well... Except for Martin Scorsese. He's still awesome.

kueller Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Or maybe their experiences just aren't as immediate. This is apparent even in the "later peak" albums mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklord Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 You are laughing cause you know it's true Let's see Bloom starts great and goes absolutely nowhere, Magpie , Little By Little sounds like bad old b side, Feral Lotus average song, Codex would be my pick for a good track there but they aslo did better songs with similar sound, Ghost also just doesn't go anywhere but had potential and Separator is just forgettable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kueller Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I think most of my enjoyment of that movie was how much it was animated psychology. I believe they had just come out of abstract thought too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumpypotato Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Even if TKoL sucked (it doesn't), A Moon Shaped Pool was phenomenal, so doesn't that sort of make this argument redundant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozenbanana Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'm not sure a Radiohead-Muse comparison is a particularly useful one, because Muse seem to care far more about commercial performance and writing songs to fill stadiums than Radiohead do. Even if Muse go a bit experimental on LP8, I'm pretty sure there will still be one middle-of-the road, soft cheese fest on the album, which will harm our perception of it when it comes out. (I'd love to be proven wrong though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumpypotato Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Why would it? Didn't this all start when someone claimed that bands tend to write inferior quality as they get older? I wasn't paying much attention tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn. Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Muse seem to care far more about commercial performance and writing songs to fill stadiums That's why i would want an album full of Exgenesis, Handlers and Globalists. I just want them to do the kind of music they like trying to be a good as possible, without thinking in what the general public will say or how the songs are going to be translated live. To me an album is more important than a tour, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyP117 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'd definitely take more songs in the vein of Overture and Redemption on a future album, Overture is pretty haunting. I was never a big fan of Cross-Pollination though. As for The Globalist...I'm just annoyed it's taking up precious space in the live sets these days.

Jobby Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I honestly wouldn't mind them going all out on a pop/synthpop/electronic rock record, ala Revolt, UD, Supermassive, Lies and even Follow Me (but...better). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'm alright them taking their time with LP8 (if, indeed, they go for an album), and creating something wildly different. But we'll see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander DeLarge Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Ew. The only thing I have to go off in recent memory with Trent Reznor producing is How To Destroy Angels (his wife's band) and it sounds like Nine Inch Nails, which wouldn't be a bad thing for Muse tbh.

Destroya Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Think Tjet's idea of Celldweller may be pretty good for that heavy electronic edge and for some extra (proggy) beef maybe have Amos and/or Acle (depending how majestic the album needs to be) from Tesseract as well. Not very familiar with Celldweller's music but from what I've heard it sounds rather good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
