Muse - Super Massive Black Hole

Recommended Posts

Oh god. I just downloaded the new Muse song.

 

I want to like it but it just doesn't do it for me. It sounds way overcooked as if they let some Britney Spears producer add all these distortions to it.

 

This can't be happening........this is Muse for christ's sake, they can't ever be bad! EVER!

I own all their albums, and i have to say i really like this song. Its something new, it took a few listens but i really like it. I don't think the new album will be all in the same vein though.

Have you heard Knights of Cydonia? I only have a live recording but I absolutely love it. I'm one of the bigger Muse fans on this board as well [saw them live on December 21st 2004 at Earls Court, Final Absolution tour date] and I have to say that Supermassive Black Hole has really grown on me.

 

I'll get you a yousendit set up for Knights of Cydonia [Live] if you guys want it. It's truly immense, 6 minutes, mostly instrumental and Dom wailing like usual.

Super Massive Black Hole is pretty funky in my opinion. My girlfriend, who is a very big muse fan, also likes it a lot. I wouldn't try comparing it to any of their other stuff, as that's not really what Muse is about. Their stuff is pretty incomparable with each other. Each album has a different sound to the next/last. Fresh.

now that i listened sometimes to it, it sounds more like jamiroquai! i like jamiroquai ;)

yeah but i wanna know how they play it live? is guitar, bass and drums enough for that massive sound they're creating?

okay, it's the bass effect that's making the song so massive :o

ah yeah, i care :D

At first I thought "huh?", though I did think it was cool, but not that great. Now I think it's brilliant and really can't wait till the release of 'Black Holes and Revelations"! That song's been on my mp3 player since 8th May and I can't stop listening to it! I love the video too, it's so abstract and wierd. Proper Muse style.

I'm a huge Muse fan and deffo think that this is a step in the right direction for them. Although Matt Bellamy did say that this song is a one off on the album, they say it's more diverse blend of tracks. I really can't wait, this has to be my most anticipated album of this year!

I also have that live track, it sounds immense! It's just too bad about the sound quality of the recording, though from what I can hear it sounds like it's gonna be amazing. Starlight sounds quite brilliant too.

For some reason all these tracks remind me of 'Origin of Symmetry', which for me isn't a bad thing - it's my favouraite Muse album. ^^

Seen em twice and It's been mind blowing each time. those guys are seriously amazing musicians.

 

oh yeah, and matts guitar is super wierd which helps with the sound. it has built in effects boxes and all sorts. plus it shoots lasers.

Heard it in the shower, nothing amazing.

Now I think of it- I haven't really been blown away since Origin of Symetry.

 

By the way steer clear of Hullabuloo or whatever it is, it's just a bunch of B-sides and live shit, really nothing amazing, I probably will get it.. but wont love it.
