Dead Flower Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Anyone heard it? Seems to have divided a lot of Muse fans. Some think the band is selling out and now making pop tunes, while others think it's very cool and different.I reckon it's great. Has a bit of a Prince influence going on, with it's really funky beat and Matt embracing the high pitched falsetto even more so than usual. It's also a bit more upbeat and groovy than the stuff from 'Absolution' (one of my all time favourite albums) which is nice to see .But, with all that said, I kinda hope Matt gives the guitar a bit more of a workout in some of the other tracks from the new album. I don't want them to move completely away from what made them great in the first place.Awesome band. They've had a hell of a run so far: .. ..

ScottRose Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 It's great. I know that some people bitch coz they think the band is trying to get commercial success, but I personally love the slightly different sound. It's upbeat, while still being classic Muse. And besides, Time is running out is a much more commercial song than SBH. They both rock, though.Now, I haven't heard anything else from the album, and probably won't either, I want the record to surprise me on July 3. Can't wait.

Nightrain_Kid Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Never really liked their singles when i was younger but i wouldnt mind checking out an album of theirs, whats the best one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Flower Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 They are all good. Absolution is my personal favourite, but Showbiz would probably be the best to start off with.But, then again, Origin of Symmetry has the completely wonderful Citizen Erased ... like I say, it's all good.

The Sandman Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 I don't care for their sound.Snap, I didn't like them before TIRO (single on TOTP), and then liked that song and wasted just under a quid on that album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Flower Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 I think I've listened to Stockholm Syndrome nearly every day since I first bought Absolution. How can a band sound so heavy, yet so soft and melodic, all at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchiefjr Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 The new single is...different, thats for sure, but i like it. They have another song that they performed live that i've heard, and it was better. AMAZING band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard it (want to wait for the album) but apparently it's more of a rocker. So that's good news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
