Pressure (single)

Wait holy shit the main riff is almost exactly the same as Blue Orchid by The White Stripes, especially the chorus of Blue Orchid. Actually the singing in the verses is even really similar.

 

Edit: Also I know it would've been really short, but I think this should've ended at 3:10. Feels weird and takes a little life out going from the multiple riffs back into the chorus then back to the same riffs for the fourth or fifth time.

I'm kind of conflicted.

 

It's catchy and I'm glad it has prominent guitar.

 

But it's the kind of song that if someone asks who my favorite band is I'm embarrassed to say Muse if this is all they've heard.

 

Edit: that damn bass riff in the chorus though. That's the diamond in this song for sure imo.

 

Agreed about the bass riff, it's perfect.

 

Don't agree about the other bit though. I'm personally more embarrassed by something like Aftermath. Pressure is a good fun song that I think will be great live.

Do you think they'll play pressure? Didn't they play follow me before it was released?

 

Almost definitely. It's the lead single off a new album on a show they're doing for promo.

Aftermath wasn't a single though. This is going to be THE radio song for this album. Think about how Uprising and Madness are still played on the radio when there isn't new Muse around. At least that's how it is in America.

I guess I just don't find anything in it that really sounds bad to my ears. But then again I love Revolt so what do I know? :p

That explains it lol. It's the backing vocals in the chorus for me. If that melody was a synth I'd probably like the whole song. But as with alot of Muse songs something really tiny ruins the tone of the entire song for me.

 

Same with TC, if the whoa-oh vocals in the chorus were replaced with the synth version of the same melody in the intro of the song I'd enjoy the song a lot more.
