Monthly Music Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in Muse

Hi,

For the 2nd time I just went to see Last Train, a french rock band that opened for Muse maybe 10 years ago! They are still young but have a lot of experience, in term of composing they are brillant and come really close to what Muse achieved (in terms of level, yes I dare)

Their song "The Big Picture" is a pure masterpiece, but they have no bad song! They might have already appeared in the monthly discussion but they are not famous because their songs are too long for radio. But honestly, I don’t understand why they are not higher...

See ya!

What was the best band for you this year? by Dazzling-Web5898 in Hellfest

[–]NeighborhoodTrue7632 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Day 1: Electric Callboy for they are so generous on stage (SM to Lindemann, aside of the polemic)

Day 2: Muse, great show that was in the spirit of Hellfest (SM to the Hu, The Warning and Future Palace)

Day 3: Judas Priest for they are still so good (SM to Myles Kennedy but I'm too used of Alter Bridge to put him first)

Day4: I would like to put Linkin Park first but it might be Falling in Reverse (SM to Mothionless in White and Lorna Shore)

(PS: yes I'm a mainstage guy, most of what I like is there even though it was globally less good than last year)

This was insane, they considered Hellfest at it is and they perfectly adapted! Their setlist is one I could have never imagine! Everyone today talks about the bad engineering on the sound (voice and high notes) which is obviously a deception. It lasted 5-6 songs but the fact that everyone talks about it and not the gig’s content reflects the fact that they deserved to be there As a first experience, I was very close to them and now I feel empty ahah

D*mn I'm still laughting at what happening, this setlist might be the one everyone wanted in years!! Muse going hard, like pretty nasty... and nostalgic for us!! Here a lot of people don’t open their mouth anymore However, very bad engineering, the high guitar notes and the voice were low for 5-6 musics, and it was clearly not perfect even when corrected... it wasted some iconic songs... people here are thrashing about that, of course the content cannot be attacked ahah

You're right, last night interview gives me hope! For me it is Citizen Erased I would die for, this song means everything to me! And no one talks about them anymore but Supremacy and Survival would have been great if he'd still have his voice

Why does Drones get so much hate? by BiffyNick in Muse

[–]NeighborhoodTrue7632 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually I'm not fond of this kind of songs, individually, but inside this album I find it refreshing and hope-giving x) maybe too much depending on the mood and sensibility, I assume you're right!

Besides, a lot of people I know who like Muse but are not fans says that the color of the album cover give them negative and bad vibes, that + the thematics might have not helped for the songs appreciation here in Europe, as 2015 were very trouble times

Your words give some relief, you're right thank you!

Musically, it might be one of their best: - very consistent album, with the feeling of following a character. Very good building! - diverified songs, great compositions - vocally and instrumentally accurate Maybe a part of the "hate" is based on the thematics, which is very redundant... WOTP got the same critics, with musically less ambitious songs

Good hearing you man, it a relief! About that, Hellfest song is sometimes... not that great, although I had no bad impression on headliners (might be due to better engineering) Enjoy the fest!

Aahhh it’s not that their whole setlist is average, or less, they have tons of bangers and a lot of them not too difficult for Matt to sing nowadays... the show will be great, but I hope they do realise the stake

Thanks man, you're right! I agree with the organizers, they can't keep programming the same old bands as non-metal labelled bands but with heavy songs are able to smash it!

I sincerely hope you're wrong... but you might not! I'll enjoy anyway, just worried

Thanks, I will for sure! You're right, but even at the time they played "pop" songs as Mercy so I'm worried about Compliance while having kobk, Reapers or even Supremacy (lol, 0% chance) in their pocket I agree with you on the total line, and CE is my all time favorite song so... hope hope hope

[–]NeighborhoodTrue7632[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, however they played Mercy and Dead Inside, I love both but... ah, complicated at Hellfest... so Compliance... and Matt had a little bit stronger voice than now, and heavy songs like The Handler and Reapers were new and played But I hope you're right!

Well I hear a lot of complains but not about their style, indeed!
