Another new song from the album leaked yesterday after they played it on some MTV show in Italy. It's called Map of the Problematique..quite electronic with some nice vocal harmonies in the choruses. They also seem to have a fourth member for live performances now. Let's just hope that Matt still plays the keyboard parts in B&H, New Born, etc when they play live. This guy only seems to be around for parts of the new album where guitar and keyboards are playing at the same time, because Matt obviously can't do both at once!

You've heard 4 songs?

I've only heard "SMBH", "Knights..." and "Starlight" live (on the Radio 1 broadcast of 13th May), and the promo studio mix of "SMBH" that I got from Muse's site when they offered it for free download - what's the other song that's been "leaked"?

(I've also seen a video for SMBH, in which Matt looks like Jarvis Cocker in a "Sergeant Pepper" jacket...).

BTW, anyone looking in that hasn't heard "SMBH" can hear it at Muse's MySpace, or by clicking on my flashing logo below, and then clicking on the image of Matt/Muse that appears in my "Friends" list.

I'll dig out the URL of the video - it's on YouTube.

That's why they're great :)
 
I was worried that they might put out a worse version of Absolution OOS or Showbiz. I'm glad they have avoided that, and done something new with their sound.
 
And of the four songs we have heard off the album, I love them all.  Knights of Cydonia is prog in my ears, though the other three are still pop with prog elements. Prog or not, I love everything I'm hearing, and I think the new album will blow me away for sure.

"Supermassive Black Hole" is wierd.

I HATED it the first time I heard it - I thought it sounded like Prince until the vocal harmonies in the chorus kicked in.

Now I find it almost unbearably infectious - I don't like it as much as "Knights...", but it is really different to what they did before or what anyone else is currently doing - you gotta give Muse credit for that.

I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.

I listened to Super Massive Black Hole... please tell me this album is better than that one song.


EDIT:

Just heard Knights of Cydonia. That was awesome. A live version. Diminshed 6ths. hah.

The reviews for the album are all very positive. Knights of Cydonia IS incredible, and many of the other songs will be. I'm sure it'll top Absolution, and OOS.

I don't think that it is going to be proggier than Absolution, judging by what I've heard so far...Supermassive Black Hole is far from prog, although it's not like Time Is Running Out was a prog song either. I dunno if they'll be able to peak Absolution - they couldn't peak Origin of Symmetry!

Knights of Cydonia is a 6 minute prog epic, though!

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

w00t!!!!

Thanks for the heads up!

I'm going to see them at Reading Festival, so I'm definitely buying the new album.

    /edit: linkage to more live Muse stuff than you can throw a guitar at, including some of the new stuff. The acoustic material near the bottom of the page is highly recommended.

I cannot wait for this new album. I love all of the new songs, especially Knights of Cydonia. Supermassive Black Hole is an odd one, though..

Judging by the reviews of the album so far, it's going to have a lot more variation than all of the earlier albums.

I apologize if a thread has been done on this topic before....I conducted a search, and I don't believe I saw any similiar topics. If I am mistaken, delete this thread.

Anyways:
 
New MUSE ALBUM JULY 3RD!
 
I absolutely adore each of the new songs I've heard, and all of the reviews of the album have been highly positive. So:
 
Who's excited!?
