Which Muse song or riff makes your head stand on end whenever you hear it?

[GSMU7]

The dead star outro from v festival :-)

[samanthrax]

falling down &showbiz.

[Iivis]

MotP does it every time. Especially at the beginning when the drums, synth and bass kick in and at the part(s) right after Matt sings "since I met you".

 

Another one is the guitar in Sing for Absolution at 3:30. Hrrr. <3 And then there are Bliss, New Born, Exogenesis (parts I-III) and B&H.

I had most of these in my post and the ones that I didn't have I just forgot.

[Noobcake]

The main bass-riff from Hysteria. I came when I saw and heard it live at Koengen three days ago.

[PwoperFisch]

* When the bassline in Hyper Music kicks in

* The last verse in Take A Bow, starting with: "Yeah BURN! You will BURN!"

* In MOTP, the sound right after Matt sings "Since I met you" after the first chorus

* The beginning of SMBH (live), when Matt starts dancing around with his guitar.

* Stockholm Syndrome, just as it is, especially from '04

* Uprising, after waiting 10 hours in the sun. Unbelieveble feeling.

* Knights Of Cydonia, "No one's gonna take me aliiive!" and the riff after that when everyone goes nuts (ofc) I heard in an interview that if there's one song/riff they wanna be remembered for, it's that one

 

There's a lot more aswell..
