Anyone heard the new muse single yet? If you havn't, you'll be surprised. Its got a dance techno vibe to it, not the mention the falsetto verse and robotic chorus. Here's a link.

Supermassive black hole

Trust me, if you're thinking, 'WTF' after the first listen, listen again. It's a definite grower. And everyone expecting Absolution2, dont worry, the rest of the album is supposed to be different. Tell me what you think. Enjoy.

It reminds me of Eagles of Death Metal, if they weren't intentionally sparse. It also bears a resemblance to Blur's "Crazy Beat." I think it's okay.

You have to listen to it a few times to get a feel for it. Put it this way, the only thing thats changed is the beat. They still have their distorted guitars and falsetto vocals. And if you listen carefully, I dont think any syntisisers or computers were used. It seems to be old Muse to a new groove. And perhaps this is what they wanted to achieve, a lot of commotion and free publicity for their new cd. Clever move. Wink

But Pitchfork doesn't. I wonder if they listen to albums and songs more than once before reviewing them.
