Ellmeister Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Going to Leeds Fest. Would rather eat shit then go to V :P Woah, calm yourself poppet. V is 20mins from me, wish I was working it! Having to work at the shop instead which is a bummer. Quite a few good acts, but mostly ones I've seen before.
Oxigen_Waste Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) This is awesome. Ah ah, so awesome! Also, Knights of Cydonia a capella also awesome. God, I had forgotten what an awesome song it is... Why can't muse just make this new album more like that track. Edited July 22, 2009 by Oxigen_Waste
Dyson Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Ah ah, so awesome! Also, Knights of Cydonia a capella also awesome. God, I had forgotten what an awesome song it is... Why can't muse just make this new album more like that track. Give it time. People had a very similar reaction to Supermassive Black Hole when it was released, but BHAR turned out to be a great album giving us many good tracks
Dyson Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Muse will break limits again I wish you wouldn't post shit like this, it just goes and makes me want to hate the band.
Roostophe Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I like Muse, but they won't 'break limits'. The fuck?
stuwii Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I like Muse, but they won't 'break limits'. The fuck? United states of eurasia is unusual trying new things etc
Oxigen_Waste Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Give it time. People had a very similar reaction to Supermassive Black Hole when it was released, but BHAR turned out to be a great album giving us many good tracks BHAR is a shard of what it could've been. Their worst album, if you ask me. And I'd expect this new one to not be that great either.
Paj! Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 United states of eurasia is unusual trying new things etc Breaking limits is doing a mediocre/decent (depending on your taste really) song heavily inspired/that is an homage to Queen, a band with one of the most well-known sounds ever?
CoolFunkMan Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I like Muse for thier experimentation, and whilst this track doesn't 'break the limits', there's certainly been Muse tracks that have. BHAR is a shard of what it could've been. Their worst album, if you ask me. And I'd expect this new one to not be that great either. I agree that BH&R could have been a lot more, I wouldn't call it a bad album though. It just felt too watered down and tame for Muse. I don't agree that 'The Resistance' won't be great though, they self-produced it for the sole purpose of being as ott as possible.
S.C.G Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 On its own merits BH&R isn't a bad album, it's a good album, with a handful of really good tracks and some not so great ones tbh... Now the problem is that when you compare it to Origin of Symmetry, that is when it becomes a bad album, because OOS was - and still is - an amazing album, with no weak tracks Imo and more importantly it flows... I think that's what it boils down to personally.
Goafer Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I'm loving the Rock'n'Rolla soundtrack at the minute. My personal favourites: The Sonics - Have Love Will Travel Audio The Clash - Bank Robber Audio The Subways - Rock n Roll Queen Audio Ex Sektor Gaza - Dopylsia Audio

Poppet? what the fuck? besides V is biggest piece of corporate shit ever. scamming bastards. i go to leeds every year and that no where no as bad as V. Edited July 23, 2009 by Davey_T

I think that's what it boils down to personally. This. And as for The Resistance, let's just say I'm keeping my hopes as low as they can go. If it's great, even better, but I'm prepared for it to suck hard.

I think that's what it boils down to personally. Hmmm, fair point. I do love all thier albums so far, but nothing has even come close to beating OoS, though I'd still rate all other Muse albums quite highly. I actually read that 'The Resistance' reminds them of OoS in a recent interview, in the sense that they've been able to let go and experiment for the first time in ages. It'll probably sound nothing like OoS, but how can I not have high hopes after hearing that?
stuwii Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 OOS was shit- half the songs were bad quality (new born) and the rest were plain crap (screenager, megalomania
Dyson Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 OOS was shit- half the songs were bad quality (new born) and the rest were plain crap (screenager, megalomania What the fuck? No seriously, what the fuck?
CoolFunkMan Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 OOS was shit- half the songs were bad quality (new born) and the rest were plain crap (screenager, megalomania Erm.... what? OoS is thier best album to date. But then I guess each to thier own.
S.C.G Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 OOS was shit- half the songs were bad quality (new born) and the rest were plain crap (screenager, megalomania Stuwii... the more you post about Muse the less of a fan you seem to actually be, if you were a real fan of the band then you'd recognise Origin of Symmetry for the excellence that it is and realise that Black Holes and Revelations is vastly inferior in comparison. But you're entitled to live in ignorance if you like...

OOS was shit- half the songs were bad quality (new born) and the rest were plain crap (screenager, megalomania I didn't think I'd ever see the day when a Muse "fan" called New Born "bad quality"
S.C.G Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 I didn't think I'd ever see the day when a Muse "fan" called New Born "bad quality" Exactly... I know it's just his opinion but it really could not be further from the more widely accepted 'truth' that it's one of the best introductory tracks to an album, ever. Newborn is a truly excellent track.
Roostophe Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 New Born is an awesome track. Why, 'twas what got one into Muse in the first place. :awesome:
stuwii Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 Exactly... I know it's just his opinion but it really could not be further from the more widely accepted 'truth' that it's one of the best introductory tracks to an album, ever. Newborn is a truly excellent track. I hate the sound quality but I love the song, I cannot hear the guitar too well same for CE
