^ agreed, it's actually pretty decent

there's also supposed to be a 10 minute song on the album, that'll be interesting

Or a complete mess

But they have a relatively good history with longer tracks, so let's hope.

Also, the song is great, but I think Reapers is the only true "refreshing" and genuinely interesting song they've released so far. "Refreshing" might be quite a bold word to use considering the overuse of synth arpeggios and the bland, heavy riffing finale yet again. Let's just say those are trademarks I guess

This is fucking Muse right here.

I like it, this has potential to be a fun album.

their best song since BH&R

Yeah this is pretty good.

Most bearable new song. Well done!

Great, but Dead Inside is still better

At last, there's not a single pointless hating comment! Song is awesome.

to be fair most of the other songs deserved the hateful comments lol

I've been on reddit, facebook, pitchfork, absolutepunk, you name it. Sputnik has given all the previous songs the most hate by a long long way.

^^^^ That's pretty much it.

Muse has always been a one trick pony to me. Absolution is a solid album though.

Decent song IMO

See I haven't enjoyed anything they've put out since like 2006 or whatever
So I am very unaMUSED by this
I'll see myself out

mmm this was okay.

Finally a song to shut up all the people bitching for absolution. This could hands down fit on that album.

Wow, a good song. Thats a first out of the 4 they've already premiered.

Where there ever more news articles for a new album boys?

This is decent (and I like it) but still feels a little staggered. I'm actually feeling a little hopeful now; the last two minutes of Dead Inside were killer.

whooaaaa, I'm impressed. I noped out as soon as the drums came in.

Surprisingly good! This and the other recent song make me more hopeful for the album.

"their best song since BH&R"

mk ultra? unnatural selection?

but yeah its really great. i feel a comeback coming up, since every song so far was good

"because the fans there are idiots?"

Why, because they don't worship black/progressive metal over all else? Come on man, the earlier songs released from this album aren't shockingly terrible like this site would have you believe.

If you like old muse and don't like this song then I don't even know what to say.

First good song released. Hopefully others like it on the album to possibly save it.

'the four worst sites to read about music because the fans there are idiots?'

yup everyone on facebook, which has a userbase of basically everyone in the world, is an idiot and doesn't know how to music

'yup everyone on facebook, which has a userbase of basically everyone in the world, is an idiot and doesn't know how to music'

yuppp

well most of fans on facebook are just there to show their support most of the times. Unless bands fuck up tremendously, that is. Then it's a clash between haters and idolisers which is good just if you have some popcorns ready and twenty minutes to waste reading useless comments

"Great, but Dead Inside is still better"
are you retarded?

Ok this was actually pretty good

wakeupsheeple-core/10

dead inside was the worst thing ive heard in a while yeah but comments are making me interestd in this song

Sweet.

yeah best one that came out. The other one that came out yesterday was one of the worst tunes I've heard this year. Psycho is painfully average as well

It's always fun to read the comments on a band which is, for whatever reason, considered 'cool to hate'.

Because they have just released sub par albums for a decade now?

@Sowing I was expecting a 1 review/rating from you, now I'm expecting a 1.5 ;-)

obligatory quote with 'lol' comment so people know i have nothing to contribute

"dead inside was the worst thing ive heard in a while yeah but comments are making me interestd in this song"

Trippin' bro. Dead Inside was good.

I hated that song at first but it really grew on me

there's worse out there tbh

They were awesome in the day.

And they might make shit albums these days, but they put on a hellova live show.

their older stuff hasn't clicked with me yet. I don't know why, I'm just not really into the whole cardboard-cutout Radiohead style they had back then.

Matt's vocals are very Thom-esque.

hey this is pretty nice

showbiz is the only album of theirs that sounds like Radiohead, and some of OoS. Absolution is where they found their niche

OOS has quite a bit of Radiohead influence imo. But agreed, Absolution they found their own stride.

Now this is the Muse I used to know and love.

lol Origin sounds nothing like Radiohead, apart from maybe Screenager, if anything Absolution has more Radiohead influence on it.

As for The Handler I'm really digging it. Chris's Bass work has been quite good over the past few songs.

if anything Absolution has more Radiohead influence on it.

Think you need to lay off the crack, dude.

Damn, this artwork is so good.

"When bae thinks she's good at political commentary"

Really like this, especially the build up/ending

Album leaked and it's meh.

No way it gets above a 3 average on here.

Haven't listened yet... any better than their last couple?

Yeah, definitely. I predict a 3.1 avg, though.

Better than The 2nd Law, maybe just barely better than the Resistance. Everything after Defector is just average pop-rock.

revolt might be the most generic song theyve ever done

still, i was expecting to hate this but its alright. better than their last two for sure

also the globalist being a sequel to citizen erased my fuckin ass

The Globalist was disappointing as fuck. The album just dies after Defector imo.

So rest got leaked Boys?

apparently

anyway. Will get that in my Mail soon anyway. Till then I still have to do some livealtering things

I'll just wait until it's on Spotify

Revolt is definitely top 5 for worst Muse songs.

I still can't find a stream. Maybe later today.

"I've been on reddit, facebook, pitchfork, absolutepunk, you name it. Sputnik has given all the previous songs the most hate by a long long way."

This is true about every artist talked about in Sputnik. We are realists here

Except for Brand New, Deftones, Thrice...etc ahah

"Realists? Bullshit, as long as they're a post hardcore band Sputnik gargles all on them balls."

Don't forget black metal and Kanye West

Post BHAR is poo though.... Plus Pitchfolk is a fucking joke.

Album is sure to at least be better than the last two. All of the new songs have at least been decent, this being one of the better ones.

Not hard dude. really not hard.

loved this song on first listen. my muse love seems to be rekindled

this is the best song on a garbage album. for whatever thats worth

album is exactly what Muse needed to make

a few weak spots, but I am not disappointed

it's not so much of a comeback, it's more like a necessary turn for the better.

[2]

not holding my breath on the album being good though.

aha! found a stream! Goldenmp3 saves(?) us again

http://www.goldenmp3.ru/muse/drones

Gonna wait til release

and of course the "officially" stream another song.

at this point I think it's worthless to make another news post

probably sucks will never listen
