Hopix Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Lets just say MK ultra kicks up a bigger storm in a shorter amount of time and doesn't re-use old riffs either. MK Ultra rules. It doesn't re-use old riffs but the riff itself is not exactly original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozza Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 It's that whole 'mainstream' thing... some people seem to be oblivious to the fact that Muse have been very mainstream for the majority of their career. They've been popular for years, not just since BH&R came out. Plug In Baby charted at number 11, ffs! And that was 8 years ago . I know. Muse have been mainstream their whole career. Just took a while for the media to catch on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbo Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Just getting back at this You say MK's got no 2nd verse? So what do yoú think the part after the first riff is?("invisible to all" etc.) It's got the same melody as the first verse, so why would this suddenly be 'another bridge'? I wouldn't call that a verse as it's far too short, I'd call it more of a part of the middle-bridge. The transition to the chorus isn't a part of the verse, it's a bridge.

Namey Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I love this song, and I usually couldn't care less about lyrics but I think they're worth discussing! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_MKULTRA On another note, the bass from this track made it 3rd sexiest Muse song ever:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbo Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Yeah, but a bridge usually connects, or bridges, a verse and a chorus right? Usually, but it doesn't mean it has to be. It can be chorus to verse as well, but the part where Matt does his "oooo" in the verse seems alot more like a bridge, atleast to me. If it isn't, then the second verse is horribly short. It still doesn't change its albeit unorthodoxiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astronoma Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I actually like those little mess ups I can get over the odd guitar mistakes but not singing 'all of history deleted with one stroke' is a bit off putting for me when I listen back and it was when hearing it live too lol.

Riveon Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I have finally discovered the awesomeness of this song. I though it wasn't that good, and that it was overrated. But I was learning it on drums, and I just appreciate the song so much more now. I prefer MK Ultra to US now, and the reason I prefer it has already been stated: it feels so unorthodox compared to US. I loved US on first listen, and it was my favourite on the cd, and while I still think it's a great song, it's appeal has worn a bit. It doesn't seem to have the depth that MK Ultra has. Edit: Wow, it's amazing live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
