That is an epic intro to a song
Although not even the best Muse intro. Hysteria, woman!

Matt Bellamy so wants to be Thom Yorke
but he just can't get there. Needs to apply pritt-stick to one eye.

Matt Bellamy's made it past three albums without making one that's completely unlistenable
which makes him better than Thom Yorke in my book. And he's boffing Goldie Hawn's daughter

It's called pushing the boundries maaaaaaan
technically Yorke did make it past 3 albums before making 1 unlistenable. Although the 4th, Kid A is actually pretty good if you're into that kind of music. He saved his best for last though, In Rainbows is a fucking belter.

I'm sorry but that Queen ripoff
that Muse did last was utter balls. I think Radiohead have just kept on getting better. OK Computer was immense as were Kid A and Amnesiac for completely different reasons. Hail and In Rainbows are also top quality too.

Have to agree
Radiohead are one of my most favourite bands. I think they are generally frowned upon around these parts though so I don't like to admit it out loud.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Thu 22 Jul 2010, 10:21, Reply)

Radiohead made one good album, The Bends, after that it's been mediocre with the occasional good track
Radiohead bore the shit out of me.

If Radiohead bore the shit out of you
it must've been a pretty grim 90's and 00's...

Radiohead made one good album, The Bends

It amazes me how some people manage to get dressed in the morning. Or are you sitting at your desk at work with your trousers covering your head and one arm?

The Bends is my favourite
It's perfect

Just because I didn't like it doesn't make me a window licker doest it? Relax dildo features it's just music.

I agree some things come down to personal taste
and I've been called a c*** on b3ta for claiming to be a Captain Beefheart fan who doesn't like Trout Mask Replica (bit harsh I thought). But while I don't personally like trilling R'n'B vocals, I can see that Kelly Clarkson has a great voice. Similarly, you might not like OK Computer, Kid A, In Rainbows but you've got to recognise musically they're impressive and varied.

yeah I do, I just don't like them. Captain Beefheart is ace!!!!

Muse's latest single sounds like the 'rawk' version of the Take the High Road theme
From the 90s
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 22 Jul 2010, 10:27, Reply)

yeah I'm seeing them in September and I'm hoping they don't just play all their new shit
it's annoying that they have to make every song an EPIC PIECE now
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Thu 22 Jul 2010, 10:33, Reply)

Muse haven't really changed what they do though
also Matt Bellamy is a massive girly flouncer, I know this from seeing them by chance before they became massive and he stormed off stage straight out of the fire exit at the end of the gig because everyone was there for the support band and left when Muse came on stage. He was sat head in hands by their tour bus being comforted by the two girls that had come to see them.

It's the Oasis school of thought
Make 1-2 albums in a particular style. Sell loads of records. Keep ploughing out the same old same old trying to reach the highs of the debuts. End up treading water, getting old, clinging on to credibility and becoming resented.

strangely enough
I think the best guitar riff ever is the ever so simplistic opening to Airbag by Radiohead.

I played a DJ night at a uni IndieSoc event
That was my closing song and when the slow, lofi US indie fan took over after me she stopped Just during the second long pause near the climax of the song. I was livid, I asked her what she was doing. "I thought the song had ended." Beeeeeee-hatch.
( djtrialprice, Thu 22 Jul 2010, 10:22, Reply)

Serves you right
You should have ended your set with something that clears the floor and is impossible for her to mix from. Nasenbluten are good for this.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Thu 22 Jul 2010, 10:25, Reply)

when I was in a club
they played Bohemian Raphsody as the last song but turned it off just as the heavy guitar bit kicked in, it was well annoying.

To be fair, I'm always falling over.
Even sober. There are often cries of "Wuuuuuuuurrr!" around the library as I feel myself going.

in that case, yes, definitely.
The way I understand it works is kind of like a spirit level. So if your balance juice is all shaken up that's why you fall over.

I really hope this answer upsets the scientists. Maybe Enzyme will come over and explain it to me in a sexy manner.
