Mozza Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Dude it's 2010 now. 2010 is like windows vista, rushed and a step backwards from the previous upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calliope. Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Dude it's 2010 now. I'm not! He's promised us for years he was gonna do stage shows with UFOs landing on the crowd and him zooming all over the place in a rocket pack and it never happened. The guy's full of poo! He said he was doing that for wembley this year. Maybe not the jetpack, but we'll see if he keeps his word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarrieB Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Dude it's 2010 now. I'm not! He's promised us for years he was gonna do stage shows with UFOs landing on the crowd and him zooming all over the place in a rocket pack and it never happened. The guy's full of poo! He talked about having a UFO over the crowd at V but wasn't allowed because of health and safety issues. He had ideas for this tour such as acrobats which they had to drop because it didn't work and other things they had to modify as the original ideas were too expensive. Things don't always come to fruition. Would you rather he didn't share his ideas in case they don't work out? Personally I quite like to hear them. If they don't happen they don't. Such is life! And some are quite amusing like the idea of fans in cages. I doubt that will happen. I think that was probably a joke anyway! I think he's a bit of a wind up merchant! But they're not lies they're jokes and he makes me laugh. I don't mind being confused! And I wouldn't have him any other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozza Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 He said he was doing that for wembley this year. Maybe not the jetpack, but we'll see if he keeps his word He said it for 2007 too, he's ran out of new lies and is recycling old ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beibi Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Just out of interest... What's your fav song of the album? You got me there . Don't know, I don't think I have a favorite song on this album but if I have to pick one would be Unnatural Selecction, that song is a monster live.

Tunavi Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4jX_uJtngI This was the gig I went to in 2006. The first couple seconds sounds slightly like MK ultra. what do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first couple seconds sounds slightly like MK ultra. what do you guys think? Possibly completely unrelated but I reckon it could have been an early template or basis to how the MK Ultra riff evolved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escapist Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I'm actually not this song's #1 fan. I don't really know why... I really like the harder parts of it, and then the softer part right after (invisible to all, the mind becomes a wall...) but overall it's not my favorite from TR.

Mozza Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Can someone please explain it to me? MK Ultra is track 7 on Muse's 5th album titled 'The Resistance' The song essentially comprises of a synthesised riff, and a further heavier, more guitar oriented riff that bridges between the breakdown to the second part of the song and serves as the outro. The song lacks a traditional verse-chorus-verse-chorus structure, Many Muse fans regard this to be their favourite song from The Resistance, as it links back to the ever popular riff-based second album 'Origin of Symmetry' while it's focus on riffs and synthesised guitar show some linkage to the almost as popular third album 'Absolution' and is an absolute beast live. Unfortunately the band do not feel it fits as well in their new musical direction, preferring the simlarly riffy, but less intense 'Unnatural Selection' as the 'rock' song at their recent gigs, but it does still crop up around 50% of the time. The song takes its name from a CIA-led interrogration technique during the Cold War. MK Ultra, or 'Project Ultra' saw the American intelligence agency collaborate with the military to use drugs and a variety of torture methods to manipulate the brain functions of captors to obtain information. This is alledged and please don't take this as complete fact as I do not want to be sued. Matthew Bellamy's lyrics hint at the project but the link between scenario and song are not clear. How much this is due to Bellamy's notoriously under-par lyric skills or deliberate design is debateable. Good song though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was weird that they rarely play it live compared to other songs, and yet they gave us a Pro-shot MK ultra for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anxyous Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 In the 5.1 version, there's a synth playing along with the violins in the breakdown. This seems left out of the actual album version though.
