not enough musing

If they do this whole dubstep shit, I will not be happy.

Isn't this a good thing though? At least if the album is bad, it will be hilariously bad rather than just boring bad.

Lol I loved the last album though

I love everything they put out

But this looks like bullshit

This has to be some stupid ploy to get people talking about the album (please god)

Muse used to be my favorite band, but all hope for them just wubbed right out the fucking window

wow that was bad

imagine matt bellamy singing over it.

This HAS to be a joke....

"Clearly not dubstep. You can tell it's made using Matt's utter genius with his Kaaos pad and his new toy the Misa Kitara! Just imagine this as an opening to an utterly insane stage in a live show! This is going to be F*cking epic, MIND BLOWN!!"

I hate Muse fans.

Nice to see they toned down the drama. :facepalm:

I hate Muse fans. [2]
I hate Muse [2]

apparently everything you hear on the trailer was instrumental.

Next thing you know they'll be doing a remix with Skrillex for Call me Maybe

ONCE AGAIN:

this trailer was made by Tom Kirk, king of trolls

HE HAS NEVER MADE A SERIOUS VIDEO BEFORE

so my hunch is that we're getting trolled hard, chill the fuck out people

If this is a joke I will laugh so hard. Not because it was funny, but because all the Muse fans backing this 'new direction' will look like total idiots.

This is just a way to get attention and have everyone speculating about the new album.





























Or perhaps not

Digging: The Computers - Love Triangles Hate Squares

I fail to remember when it was a muse trademark to troll fans.

Hasn't every Muse album to date been a troll?

And @ Tyraelxy: Why would Muse hire a troll to make a fake video so they could post worldwide? Only one man has been a dedicated troll that big, and that was Joaquin Phoenix. And his was funny.

I thought this was actually legit, and that they'd totally lost the plot, then the dub step kicked in and I thought "oh, I get it!"

Lets just pretend that this is some big joke: is it really a smart idea (regardless of how big a band you may be) to all of a sudden come out and say, "oh no, we were just joking!"?

@Michael, Joaquin Phoenix is a god amongst trolls. he fooled
everyone in the media, his friends, and his fans then profited.

Exactly, Joaquin Phoenix is the epitome of how to do a public troll en masse. Muse just releasing a 2 minute video with some Brostep then saying, "Lol, jokes on you guys, you tried to pass it off as artistic direction" would be completely stupid and wouldn't benefit them in any way.

I mean, I even saw a fan on that Youtube video defend them saying, "Muse are geniuses, they're taking what's popular and incorporating it into their music, that's what makes them so good."

Some people boggle me.

I mean I find it kinda cool they mimicked dubstep through the use
of their instruments but it still sounds like shit and it is not funny.

Don't worry guys. Matt Bellamy is the guitarist of our generation. If anyone can make this work, its him.

lol

I love it haha! the first 1.30 are pure strings and epicness then leading in to so called "dubstep" It isn't dubstep really is it! All this dubstep going around is madce by pressing a button on a computer! Matt Bellamy is playing it on a fucking guitar! PURE GENIUS! But for pwoper Muse fans, I wouldn't worry, the entire album wouldn't be dubstep hehe Muse know what they are doing and therefore I am very excited!

Bellamy is a genius at making a catchy guitar lick and sticking to it during whatever song is in question. He's not a "genius" in regards to the guitar, just a mildy clever guy. Also, I'm not sure that they know what they are doing. Did you even listen to the Resistance? It was fucking awful so as much as I love old Muse, this would not come as a shock to me.

Yeah wow do you know anything about resource managment at all? Prices WILL go up to that level (and I expect it to happen very soon too) as drilling for oil becomes harder and harder, it's the natural development of things and a side effect of the gay illusion of the 'free market'.

it's a fucking trailer of course it's going to be over the top, you also missed the point completely, here let me help you:

Eli, look at the top comment on the video and you'll understand ;]

I actually didn't hate the Resistance, though - I enjoyed it a fair amount, although it was riddled with filler.

muse warned us! we have no one to blame but ourselves now.

"What the fuck? This is amazing. Muse are constantly pushing the boundaries of music, and they change up with every single album they've made. Seriously, Muse were always going to go for the unexpected. This is just that: completely unexpected, yet awesome. I mean, shit. Muse are the most creative musicians around right now, I'm a proud fan who's loved this band for so many years. This is a new route for them, but they will do it amazingly. Muse are awesome. Case closed."


I want to kill myself.

Muse fans are insufferable

I bet he's never even touched showbiz or origin of symmetry.

I even saw one Muse fan referring to Muse as 'we'. Like when you talk about a football team you support.

'I bet he's never even touched showbiz or origin of symmetry.'

don't forget absolution

Am I the only one who hates Muse through and through? Listening to them makes me want to kick small children. Especially Origin of Symmetry.

I hate Muse. They seem really stuck up too. Like they are doing something special with every new album.

I hate Matt Bellamy with an undying passion. I never get worked up over bands I don't like. Unless it's Muse. I want to kick Matt Bellamy right in his smug fucking face. He's such a toss. And Plug In Baby got voted 13th best riff of all time and Matt Bellamy's all like, "Oh yeah, I was so high on shrooms when I wrote that riff".

ALL MY RAGE.

I wish I could go back to when I first got into Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry and Muse wasn't really that popular. Their fanboys now are off the charts, the youtube comments are just ridiculous

His and Lars Ulrich are the worst people in music.

him*

Muse fans are worse than Dream Theater fans. And Avenged Sevenfold fans. That's saying something.

Muse fans are the worst fans. No contest. They even swarm onto any pole for best guitarist, bassist, drummer etc... and always vote for the Muse members.

I remember seeing a pole where Hysteria got voted the best bass line of all time. And another where Christopher Wolstenholme got voted best bassist of the last 20 years.

good most people I know never even remotely cared about this band.

"And another where Christopher Wolstenholme got voted best bassist of the last 20 years."
What the fucking shit, there are probably a shitload of "regional" and "lesser known" bands with a lot better ones.

I love muse, but everyone, except for my dad, I know hates muse

I have a few friends excited about this crap, a few that are worried, and some that don't care anymore

You know what bassist I don't see get enough love? Simon Gallup.

Muse had their equipment wrecked by a hurricane, coincidentally minutes before the Hurricane Festival in Germany. We can only wish them all the best at next year's World Aids Day gig.

Bwahahah.. talk about irony.

I once told a Muse fan that I didn't like Muse and they said I might as well have said, "I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT MUSIC"

Seriously, do people get off on these statements?

You obviously don't get Muse's deep hidden messages in their songs.

That has to be it. They're just too deep for me.

Idk, I think such things are pretty hilarious.

Some kind of pseudo "neo-conservative" dude once tried to tell me the there hasn't been technically demanding music since the classical period. I laughed so hard I couldn't answer.

I hope you answered 'have you even heard BtBaM' after you stopped laughing

"Some kind of pseudo "neo-conservative" dude once tried to tell me the there hasn't been technically demanding music since the classical period. I laughed so hard I couldn't answer."

Guy has obviously never heard any Muse songs.

A lot of modern bands are filled with scruffy young teens who just want to wank their instruments as much as possible. Some bands can pull of technicality well, some just write shitty wank fests. It annoys me.

Ew.. no.

I said Bela Bartok.

"A lot of modern bands are filled with scruffy young teens who just want to wank their instruments as much as possible. Some bands can pull of technicality well, some just write shitty wank fests. It annoys me."
True indeed, but there have, are and definitely will be bands that are/were and will have the ability to pull of technically demanding stuff. Also, considering there were composers like Bela Bartok and thngs like Jazz not too long after the classical period that statement was just incredibly retarded.

I would have said any drum track from any White Stripes song. Meg White is crazy technical.

Jazz is da craziest. And I accidentally wrote 'of' instead of 'off' before. My bad.

you know you can edit your comments?

Simple can be good too though.

You know I really can't be fucked?

In the end, I don't care how technical or simple music is played, I just want it to sound good. I mean, Dax Riggs is one of my favourite musicians and all his music is basic drum beats with some nice guitar and bass. Then his sexy, sexy voice.

michaelsnoxall: dude you just don't know

^ Dream Theater and Muse fan.

You guys complaining about how obnoxious Muse and their fans are and yada yada is waaaaaay more
obnoxious than they could ever be

so stop it

I used to love Muse. Sums up my feelings about this pretty well.

as I've stated before I think kate hudson is the yoko ono of muse.

wow a sensible comment

thank you andcas

I detect sarcasm.

I'm gonna step in and say... if one band could have occasional spouts of dubstep in their music, pull it off, and it actually be enjoyable, it'd be Muse. He's a pretty incredible song writer.

I personally am unopposed to this. Sue me.

I like the trailer, actually. The dubstep sounds like it could have fit onto Origin of Symmetry without much trouble, and the orchestra music through the beginning and middle of the video? Yes please.

Calm down lads, wait until the actual album comes out.

"I'm gonna step in and say... if one band could have occasional spouts of dubstep in their music, pull it off, and it actually be enjoyable, it'd be Muse. He's a pretty incredible song writer. "

"He's a pretty incredible song writer."

"He's"

You know, there are two other guys in the band.

He does the primary songwriting. Thanks for the heads up though, I'll keep an eye out for the other two.

"The dubstep sounds like it could have fit onto Origin of Symmetry without much trouble"

Oh you cheeky troll

'I detect sarcasm.'

I rarely ever make jokes

and if I do they're really bad and never sarcastic

I detect sarcasm.

"Oh you cheeky troll"

...

Considering Origin of Symmetry was half filled with screwing around on guitar (including the screeching noises and slides heard in the dubstep portion of the trailer), I don't quite think I'm trolling.

Why all the hate? Muse are a consistantly good band who play and write all their own stuff. So they are scening a bit with dubstep, I'm ok with that as long as it sounds good. Very excited about this.

go back to youtube.

You're the idiot if you think polls actually matter. If it's a poll, it's based on public opinion, so it will almost always have terrible results...

Digging: Bibio - Silver Wilkinson

I'm not dissapointed by the band in general, so I'll trust them on this one.

But if they are going to incorporate Dubstep in their music they better not go like "Look, Dubstep! wub wub wub blub blub blub! It's great!" and make it relevant, make actual music with it.

I can still see this as a total Muse thing to do, it's challenging as well which is fine, but it'd better be worth it.

it's not that it's dubstep, it's just...really shitty-sounding dubstep.
