MartianSpaghettiRider Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 The Dark Side has some wubstep as well. There's an instrumental floating around which must be from an older version. If you phase shift it against the current release, the main things left over (after compression artifacts) are vocals and wubs. In other words, they turned up the wub-wubs for the final release. I think the volume of the wub-wub synth is always the same, it's just that it may be affected by the sidechain compression applied for the vocals.

Gwendolyn23 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I have pre-ordered it and I don't regret doing it. As for me I think it will be a very good and inspiring album. I have a question for you: is it possible for us to have a chat space in order to exchange info quicker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) Tagging a video about Rocket Baby Dolls with Pressure. This could get interesting. wait what Edit: ooh ok, seen it. Actively interested in seeing the vid and lyrics for this one, which makes a change. Getting fans involved, reposting this old clip, Matt confirming it’s about pressure as a creator...could be potentially shaping up to be something pretty bold and direct.

Pressure's lyrics are out and they're even darker than The Dark Side https://www.reddit.com/r/Muse/comments/9hrvcc/muse_pressure_lyrics/ They're so edgy in some parts to the point of being almost hilarious to me, lol, but if they're absolutely honest (and I think they are, because of their rawness) then... Wow. Matt's cross as fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I remember making a post in some thread on here a fair while back (way before we knew owt about Pressure) saying I hoped Matt would write something on this topic but didn’t think he actually would the absolute madman Edit: can’t wait for the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 WAKE UP!

Spiralia-statica Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Do you really think "I see your corruption" is a lyric about fans ? Lyrics are not about fans IMO...but about the same thing who has been bitten by someone's false beliefs... Same ideas since the beginning in Muse songs : the world is corrupted and not real ("I need you out of my head", "Get out of my face, out of my mind")... So, Muse won't make us pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiralia-statica Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I know what Matt said...and he really feels pressure. But I think that the song is not really about that, even if he feels pressure on his music. IMO the song is more deep than problems with fans... How explain the lyric "I see your corruption" ? Fans are corrupted ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say that it’s deeper but at the same time try to apply a very shallow interpretation of how corruption would apply to fans.

Hat Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Social media corrupts people’s behaviour by disconnecting ones actions from the reactions. People say things they would never say in real life, and echo chambers are quite easily created. Not to mention that social media amplifies bad sides in people because they see support from others. Flat earth theory never would have gotten as big as it is today if it wasn’t for the internet. Misogyny wouldn’t have gotten to the extreme point that it has reached on the internet on mainstream social media like twitter, Facebook and YouTube especially. Or that line could simply be about the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hat Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 No further explanation on that? All the quotes you gave "I need you out of my head", "Get out of my face, out of my mind" work very well with the idea of fans and the media pressuring Matt.

Spectrum IV Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I get the feeling Matt included a few awkward lines to make it clear he’s NOT whinging about Muse fans, or the media. I suspect he’s complaining about some restrictive recording contract we’re unaware of, likely with NDAs involved, that has influenced their recent musical output. That, or we’re still in the era of vague sincerity cloaked in metaphors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 What musical output would that be? Drones? Dig Down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum IV Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Well if Musewiki is to be trusted, there was a good decline in single charting power between BH&R and TR. That might explain the general forgettableness of T2L. Maybe “Muse goes dubstep” was their version of telling the record label to fuck off. I’m only partly joking.
