United States of Eurasia

[Davidmon]

I'm not blown away by the new single...but I'm still optimistic that the new album will be great!

If the new album has as much new sound and groove as the first few seconds of Uprising it will be. As long as they bring back some of the passion of Dead Star etc.

[DownAndOut]

Love it.

Hi everybody

I find USoE a great song, really, so many different rhythms n different feelings in it... I just find the "queen" part a bit too much "we are the champions" n i don't really like the "asiatic" guitar part... That's y at first I was a bit sceptical... Then, "collateral damage" arrived... it moved me... I play piano n my favourite composer is Chopin, n well, a dream of me has always been to listen to Matt performing a Chopin's nocturne, n here it came... It's not the entire nocturne n Matt changed few notes, but i find the laughters on the background at first, then the archs n the voice, n at the end the missiles simply amazing... It's as if Muse wanted to tell us at first what the world would have to be, then in what we are turning it, and this story is told on one of the most sad and moving nocturne I've ever listened to... so... I'm in love with this song, really, but I'm expecting something different from Muse... let's wait for the new album!!!

[.:muse:.]

anybody else think that parts of usoe sound just a bit like queen? its a great song all the same but just a bit odd compared to some others.

[Clunge]

No, I think it sounds like Radiohead.

[crazy_chocobo]

That's funny because I thought it sounded liek the Jonas Brothers... how bizarre

 

One is in before the lock, Oh what a silly thread.

[Obi]

It sounds like my Great Aunt Fanny.

I'm not sure if that's good or not...

[Trippynet]

When I first heard the song, I quite liked it. Then after more listens, it's grown on me and I now love it.

 

I love the beautiful piano intro, I love the blast into the Queen-esque start of the main portion of the song, I love the next verse and just how punchy and catchy the drums are, I then love how it ends and the lovely Collateral Damage ending to it. Either way, it's quickly become one of my favourite Muse songs and I prefer it to Uprising to be honest.

 

Roll on the rest of the album!

[Supermassive Butterfly]

I absolutley love "United States of Eurasia"! I liked the way they put Chopin in there, it happens to be one of my favorite pieces by him!

[Kibelle]

Watch any epic war movie like Lawrence of Arabia, Apocalypse Now, The Pianist etc. etc. and the song will get even more beautiful. Love it!

[Clunge]

Surprisingly, it's still growing on me, a lot.

 

The middle verses are beautifully done . The swelling strings, heavy, pounding, New Born-esque bass, tinkling piano and solid drumming - all sound fantastic and uncluttered, something that was so lacking in the muddy dirge of BH&R.
