No thanks.

So far this album is making even the 2nd Law look good by comparison

I think it's not bad . I think that in this song Muse going back to the roots ,while using almost only guitars , with minimalist electronic sound. Still dig Dead Inside the most though

Song is alright, but could have done without the vocal layering in the chorus.

It's pretty decent, but not very memorable.

ugh, the downward spiral continues.

Ugh

you all need to take a deep breath and calm down [2]

you all need to take a deep breath and calm down [3] Hating just for the sake of it, goddamn.

still a really cheesy song. matt's vocals are becoming the worst part of the band

Maybe the lyrics, but I believe that Matt's vocal melodies add a lot to most of their songs.

hes great at writing melodies but i hate these arena shout choruses. its been done on uprising and madness already, it just sounds lazy now

Matt's vox have always been the worst part of the band...

I'm giving this album the benefit of the doubt. I believe that they are doing what Linkin Park did with their latest album; they are releasing the most radio friendly material first. It seemed like the album was going to be a huge letdown, and it turned out to be pretty good at the end. Hopefully, the same thing will happen with this album.

Ugh [n+1]

Why are people saying ugh? This is way better than the other crap they been putting out.

It actually has a guitar in it!

Reapers > Psycho >> Dead Inside >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mercy

This is easily the worst Muse song I've ever heard

survival still holds that title.

This group is horrendously bad

ins is perfectly right
Survival is actually one of the worst songs I've ever heard

This sounds straight out of Black Holes and Revelations to be honest. I don't know what everyone is getting so worked up about.

I heard this before...

This group is horrendously bad

Much better than anything off of he 2nd Law.

sounds like muse covering viva la vida

awful.

Catchy but awful. The worst kind of song.

I like it. Hoping I like the album more than I liked the 2nd Law.

I like that one muse song that's about anti government

A bit slow/soft for for me, might be better in context though who knows.

its basically the starlight of the album

show him some mercy you guys

1 out of 3 official songs released so far that don't suck. Not looking good for the new album, but you never know.

Pretty forgettable, but by no means terrible. The new Muse album is kinda shaping out to be that way honestly.

Not bad, but definitely not great. The only bit I liked was the second time he said mercy before each chorus.
Is it just me or does the piano sound over-compressed.

Survival is actually one of the worst songs I've ever heard [62]

[63]

Sounds like the killers covering starlight

Survival at least had a shred of originality, Jacky's hit the nail on the head here ^

Not really.

I like Psycho and Dead Inside but unfortunately this just sounds listless and by the numbers.

You liked Psycho, Tuna? Surprised. I agreed, Dead Inside was really good.

Yeah I feel like I'm one of the only ones haha. I know it's not technically a good song but I still like it either way. Dead Inside is the best of the three so far without a doubt.

100% agreed there man. Reaper or whatever it's called, though not a studio recording yet, sounds really promising.

Lyrics were pretty bad but the song was alright.

Just gonna jam Origin and remember them for the stellar band they once were

Dead Inside was actually a pretty good song, retrospectively. In fact, even Psycho was a tolerable first single. This midly bland song is really the first one that is exactly as I would have expected quality-wise.

Just jam Origins through to Black Holes.

Could Matt please put down his copy of 1984 and remove his anonymous mask. He has been crapping on about this shit in his lyrics for too long now.

His vocals are starting get annoying as fuck.

Matt sounds wankier than ever...

Sounds like terrible version of "Starlight" (now with 200% more cock-rock guitars) which wasn't really good to begin with.

Still good, still better than anything from their last 2 albums (and tbf there is some good stuff I enjoy there. Animals, Exogenesis, Liquid State) and listening to all the songs together, musically I reckon it'll be better than those 2 and probably a bit better than Black Holes & Revelations (which tbf I really like). I just wish they had their Drones playlist in the right order! :P

lol

These guys died after Black Holes

Pretty uninspired stuff here. 'Mercy from the powers that be' to the tune of some mid tempo plodding guitars? Really? Really really?

Wooooow these guys have fallen off.

This isn't absolutely terrible. Which is also the most positive thing I've said about Muse in years.

And that was disappointing as hell too.

2nd Law was unforgivable, even if the new stuff would be good (which it isn't).

2nd Law was slightly better than Resistance imo.

I've got the song on iTunes and the Youtube compression is fucked up (as usual).
