Share your controversial Muse opinions II - More Radiohead talk

[shadowkay]

I want to know what would happen if this guy:

 

 

Spoke to this guy:

 

 

After hearing the new song, I have decided enough is enough

[seregon]

I can hear:

Guiding Light drums

Resistance (love is forever/our resistance)

Starlight is a bit like the chorus

Knights of Cydonia drumming when it kicks in

Guitar sounds a bit like Take A Bow's just before it kicks in

Unnatural Selection with the 'ocean' bit

A United States of Eurasia Queen-style bit nearer the end

I Belong To You at the end

Bliss synths but higher pitch in the backgroud at some point

 

More than 4 songs then I agree though. It's mind boggling

[TrebleRose689]

Sunburn > Cave > Falling Down > Filip.

 

Map of The Problematique is what makes the first half of BH&R.

 

[Knightofcydonia]

I'd rather they were still called Radiohead rip-offs. At least you could argue the toss for that, whereas now you couldn't rightfully say Muse were the best rock band in the world with shit like some of Resistance and now NSC.

[WutDaFucksy]

It meant theres 4 different parts to the song and throughout it it has these in

He'd probably be incredibly amused.

 

 

and enough is enough?

I don't care about them any more, and I'm definitely not seeing them at Glastonbury

 

Man it feels good to be free

That's a bit sad, but thats your decision I guess.

-Falling Down is a better song than MK Ultra.

-TSP is an overly underrated song.(Has been stated before but it is true.)

YES. Falling Down is awesome. And TSP isn't

I used to be one of those Twilight haters who couldn't stand those annoying fangirls, and the fact they only liked Muse because their songs were featured on Twilight.

 

Now after witnessing all the endless moaning about NSC. I'm starting to side more with the average Twilight fangirl, rather than the disgruntled hardcore Muse fan who expects every single Muse song to sound like an Origin of Symmetry song, and can't stop bitching when a new song comes along and it's not another "Citizen Erased".

 

....oh and here's another controversial opinion with some Radiohead. KidA SUCKS! I give the guys kudos for being so ballsy on putting out something so fuckin' weird, but personally I don't get all the artsy-fartsy BS.

The bitching of the fans here has turned me off from Muse.

 

Good job.

It's more turned me off from this forum than anything. Ive learned to accept that most Muse fans are a bit moody.

[MattXXI]

I enjoy Adagio Sostenuto at the end of NSC more than Nocturne Op.9 No.2 at the end of USoE.

[xbroken_ideals]

I learnt to live like this..The bitching, I adapted to. But I admit, I still can't listen to some songs without seeing some particular person's avatar in my head...*Cough* Hoodoo *cough* gigapoodle *cough*

I coudn't agree more!

This is so true!

^I'm pretty pissed at people regarding me as someone like that, just because I am obsesed with CE. I understand that they're not going back; They're never going back. But I still love them all the same.

[Riveon]

That strange bass part that Chris plays in Sunburn when they perform it live really annoys me. I don't get the point of it.

[jack259]

Collateral Damage is pointless.

Would've worked better as a B-side had USoE got a physical release.

It's good, don't get me wrong, a nice take on Chopin, with perhaps a polical message in the war noises, but I think it disrupts the flow of the already atrocious flow of TR.

I challenge you to find five posts that corroborate this.

....oh and here's another controversial opinion with some Radiohead. KidA SUCKS! I give the guys kudos for being so ballsy on putting out something so fuckin' weird, but personally I don't get all the artsy-fartsy BS.

How is any way is Kid A 'weird' or more so, 'artsy-fartsy BS'? It's just Radiohead using different instruments... . The ethos of the music is basically no different to what they were already working with on OKC.

 

But that's another argument for another place.

[Riveon]

My four favorites:

 

Sunburn > Muscle Museum > Cave > Showbiz

 

Those four standout. Hate This & I'll Love You, Falling Down, Escape are good tracks. Unintended and Uno are average. And Fillip, Sober, and Overdue are extremely poor.

Sunburn > Muscle Museum > Showbiz > Uno

Unintended, and Cave are not quite up to their level.

Spiral Static, Falling Down are good. HT&ILY and Escape are kind of good, but a bit average.

And agreed on the last point.

UD is one of the best songs on Resistance

(Although I overplayed it)

What? people don't necessarily want another Citizen Erased or OOS. They want something new that's actually GOOD. It hasn't got anything to do with the past albums.

Yeah, Kid A is far from "weird", might seem so if you only ever listen to what's on the radio, but what influenced that album... Kid A seems commercial in comparison.

 

Mr Jingles, you seem to be misunderstanding the OOS thing, people who do mention it are often just going "Muse used to be this good and now they aren't this good"

Is that good or bad?

[Wingardium LevioSIA]

The bitching of the fans here has turned me off from Muse.

 

Good job.

I kinda feel like this. Not to such an extreme extent, but some fans make me feel embarassed to count myself as one of them.

 

Mr Jingles, you seem to be misunderstanding the OOS thing, people who do mention it are often just going "Muse used to be this good and now they aren't this good"

To be fair, in the last few days, people have actually been asking for OoS 2 in the album six threads.
