hyper_chondriac_muser Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 "I think i'm crap. I'm a crap guitar player. I'm really not very good. And i thought I was a good singer until I met Coldplay. That guy's got a real voice. He can sing ." I really hope matt was pissed or high or in some sort of a hyper-state or just being ridiculously sarcastic when he said that cos its absurd. Obviously we all know that matt bellamy is incapable of falling into the same category as anything that remotely resembles the notion of 'crap'. And coldplay? there's very little point opening up some meaningless debate of matt vs chris martin. its not worthy of discussion! Matt is one of the very few people in the world who is able to squeal like an exasperated chipmunk on coke that's been rocketed to space and make it sound fucking amazing. wouldn't you agree? hehe. i think I might be high.. so i'll stop now cos my rant has lost its initial meaning! oh wait i remember it now.. MATT ROX! =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MATT ROX! =] Matt and Chris Martin are apparently buddies or something- Bellamy drools over Martin's singing, Martin drools over Bellamy's piano playing. Awww, and I like me some Coldplay, too. Amazing live show. "What was the first song you learned to play? Matt: 'The theme tune from Dallas. When I was about three, my brother used to hold me in front of the TV, and then put me at the piano and make me work it out with one finger. Then he'd show his friends and say, look, he's a machine! I remember being picked up and carried from the TV to the piano.'" Oh my god, I swear my parents did that to me. Not the "machine" bit, but, "Hey sweetie, you can play this, I think!"

Cloud Cuckoo Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 "Do I believe in a secret government? I think it's quite possible. Matt [bellamy]'s reading a book about the trilateral commission, all these high-powered figures, just a handful of people from different countries, who do actually have the majority of control over decisions about the world. Politicians are almost puppets, just people who the public can relate to, who are percieved as slightly grounded. "I think it's on the edge when artists start preaching about politics. We're not really a politically-led band; it's not really what we sing about and it's not really what we like to sit around and talk about. We're not politicians, we didn't go to univeristy and study politics and we're not particularly educated in that field, there's a whole bunch of people out there who are, and they tend to work in politics. When artists or famous people start talking about politics it can kind of detract from people who actually know what they're talking about. People just look to the stars, to see what they've got to say, when maybe they should be looking to the people who know what they're talking about. It's fair enough to express your opinion, but I think it can give a bad name to protest." (Dom) See? They're definitely not a political band. Then again, Dom said that in the Absolution era... Q - do you compose on the sheet, when you're singing or when you're playing guitar?- is it only matt who has ideas for songs? Matt: no to both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Cuckoo Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Dom interview... (only a few parts) You guys started playing music at very impressionable ages, at a time when environment plays a big role in the shaping of personality. With that said, how do you think your music would sound had you all been raised in London instead of Devon during those Rocket Baby Dolls days? No [laughs] We probably wouldn't be sitting here right now! No? No, no. I think what was kind of good about Devon was the fact that there was no music scene at all. Nothing. During the time that we were starting music, 1994-95 there was the whole big Brit Pop thing that was cool at the time but we didn't particularly like it. It was a real kind of London, Camden thing. I think if we were living in London we probably would have liked it or been involved with it in some kind of way and that died a horrible death didn't it? [laughs] It did. All those British pop bands. Yeah, I think we probably wouldn't have been in this band. Well I'm sure we would have been in this band but would have sounded completely different. We would have split up by now or something like that. [We both laugh] Asides from forming this band with your friends... what's your fondest childhood memory? Fondest childhood memory? Ummm for some reason I'm thinking of my earliest childhood memory which is - I've got a memory of being a one year old on a beach in Spain, in an inflatable boat on the beach like a little dingy and it bursting... Oh no! ...and me sitting inside it and crying about it. Hence a fear of water? [laughs] No. I was only on the sand. It burst on the sand! Oh okay. I started crying umm that's a fond memory? [laughs] I mean, I remember lots of cool things like Devon had a real sense of strong friendship in the community. All the friends would hang around and go to each other's houses and play music, listen to music, discuss music in a sheltered way but in strong friendship situations. People always say that Dom is very calm and collected. Is that an accurate depiction of you? Ummm sometimes maybe? [Laughs] When was the last time that you lost it? Last night! Oh? I was being a bit stupid on the bus and trying to jump in the freezer. In the freezer? [Laughs] Yeah and getting in Chris' bunk with him and falling out of the top bunk. I don't know, everyone goes through periods when they kind of let go and lose it a little bit. It was one of those days. Everyone's happy to hear that Matthew's recovered from his little accident... Mmmm... [nodds] But I've heard some really crazy things such as one of your devotees wanting to catch some of Matthew's blood in his mouth. [There is a shocked look on his face] Oh right? Do things like that disturb you? Uh yeah! [We both laugh] Now that you mention it, yeah. After that night, after we finished the set, well...finished five songs, Matt went off to hospital but we ended up hanging around meeting some of the fans. They had the setlists with blood on them and stuff like that and they were going "sign this, sign this." But catching blood in the mouth, I dunno. That's a bit much yeah! That's crossing the line. Wanting to catch blood is definitely crossing the line. That's probably the sickest think I've ever heard! [Laughs] How would you describe the typical Muse fan? Asides from the one who... Asides from the psycho. Exactly. I dunno. It's hard to generalize really because I kind of feel like the people who come to see us play are a real mixed crowd age-wise. When we play in Europe, down the front, you might get the girls who think they fancy you, that kind of thing and a few rows back, you've got the people who just go mental and really kick off and then you've got those metallers with Slipknot t-shirts on. That kind of thing. As you get back, you can get the older people up to sixty or something. We've got a couple of sixty year old fans. They kinda like to see us for the classical element...that kind of thing. You've got people who come and see us for the rock side of things. It's fairly mixed but I think they've normally got the long-sleeved t-shirt on with like a short-sleeved t-shirt on top [Laughs] Dyed black hair and...uh dunno...a pair of fish net tights! [Laughs] I'm looking for one word answers. Say the first thing that comes to mind. Record labels [he looks over his shoulder to make sure there isn't a label rep around and we both laugh as he whispers] Overrated. Football Dull Butterflies Dreadful Hurricanes Chaotic George Bush Tosser Your friend Tom Our friend Tom? Good man! The Cure Surprising Why should the world give a damn about Muse? Because we're good. We're not about trying to be cool. It's all about being music purists, that's the most important thing to us. That's all we care about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephW Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Question: Matt, tell me something about yourself so I can stop having all those sex fantasies about you. Matt: "My feet absolutely stink and it's offensive for everyone to be around. On the rider I get a new pair of socks every day- and I throw away old socks every day and I spray in my shoes and wash my feet." Dom: "They really do stink." Matt:"Also, I am ridiculousy thin. And short." Lol. I don't think he has tried hard enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supermassive_Nerd Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Magazine: Chris, when are you going to cut your hair? Chris: "It's taking over the bus anyway. I might cut it off.
