Song with best rhythmical composition

[dekza]

Muse are known for having unique rhythmical compositions in their songs (not only the drum part). Which song do you think is the best and most thought through from this point of view? My personal tip is DEAD STAR. The rhythmical line in this song is very unique. My other tips would probably be CE, Starlight, Apocalyspe Please, Uprising or Eternally Missed.

I created a poll so feel free to vote and discuss. I couldn't fit all the songs I wanted so this is my personal 30 of the best rhythmical songs.

[Don'tPostThePear]

their 4/4 kick-snare-kick-snare disco songs.

 

oh wait, that will be the next album.

 

until then, the outro of knoc, that is quite kick-snare like with some added stuff.

[arod77]

i don't like polls. they don't really encourage natural discussion

[Gareeh]

easily

[musedan]

It's easily.... map of the problematique, or map of your head

I think that Dead Star is a great example of Dom's and Chris's perfect drum and bass "cooperation".

[Jyrgen]

Dead Star. Micro Cuts is another one that instantly came to my mind.

or how about Rush

[Bluefish]

Dead Star is pretty good, but I'll go with Micro Cuts.

 

Also, not fully understanding what you mean by rhythmical composition (and I'm a musician), I googled it and this thread is already second. That made me smile.

Don't understand the question at all but I answered 'Stockholm Syndrome'

[dekza]

I'm not an english native so I can't really explain myself clearly, but I mean the way the bass and drum work together in songs and create the specific rhythm...

[dekza]

or how about Rush

 

Of course I know Tool and Rush but isn't this a Muse forum?

[Plex]

Where we are doesn't change the fact that their "rhythmical compositions" aren't unique.

I know, but why did we start talking about them in the first place? I'm just saying that Muse's songs are quite unique in their rhythms and which I think is the best. I don't why you guys are upset.

I don't know why you think we are upset. All we are saying is that it isn't unique, and instead gave you examples of some bands that HAVE unique rhythmical compositions.

Recess for the bass groove and how it interacts with everything else.

[Hat]

To answer the question. Nature_1, Citizen Erased or Shrinking Universe.

[Frakkles]

Guiding Light.

[Aussie Muser]

Butterflies and Hurricanes has a pretty awesome rhythm.
