I'll never understand how anyone could dislike Muse...the drama and dream-like quality of their compositions...truly magical and just takes my breath away

[@colbybeltz8836]

Shannon Swartz couldn’t have said it any better myself

[@colbybeltz8836]

MuseAbsolution 03 hey there friend, nice to see you again

[@pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii]

The latest Muse is absolutely awfull

[@colbybeltz8836]

pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ok

[@hyalinamusic18]

pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I mean it's not as good, but it's still good. No need to hate on something different. And besides you don't need to like it, but don't say it's awful, have you listened to any modern pop? I think Simulation Theory is better than a lot of pop music nowadays. Of course that's not my place to judge lol

[@DarkDisc1]

Matt Bellamy Is an amazing singer and guitar player..the band as a whole is awesome and invoke such enormous emotional reactions from their music

[@TheMarcodinico]

Its amazing musician 360°

[@Benjamin-bj6xj]

Dj DarkDisc don’t forget the piano

[@loganperez5238]

Benjamin nice I was just about to say that, you are a man of culture

[@buckfuttler2877]

Absolution is one of the most beautiful albums ever made.

[@LibertyDino]

also Origin and Black Holes. I don't want to rank either of those as number 1

[@IceSpoon]

I can understand why people love Plug in Baby, Hysteria and other songs that throw the entire stadium out of the window. But dang, Sing for Absolution is such an underrated gem.

[@kerembayar4780]

I think it's enough to deal with

[@evilcowboy]

That distortion you notice is when the sound guy actually turns the levels up on his mic, its so the mic itself creates that distortion because he is actually maxing out the volume level with him singing that close to it to cause a muffled type of distortion, he is pretty much using the mic as both a mic and an effect. He also does it by singing pretty far away from the mic sometimes and then just swallows the mic to get the effect. People always wonder why they can hear his breath so well, thats why he is super close to the mic with no wind sock on it because he uses every sound all his equipment can make. In other words Matt Bellamy is a musical genius and it very much shows, since he is literally inventing his way of singing and a lot of his techniques would make a person shy away from them, he is turning what most say are ugly sounds/ unwanted sounds into something beautiful. He is probably one of the most revolutionary musicians to date.

[@alexkenley1]

Muse changed my perspective on music and had a profound impact on my life. I still remember where I was when I fist heard this playing on the radio. (Triple J in Australia)

[@lukedmc]

muse impacted me too in the first listening, it was new born, I was like THE FUCK IS THIS?

Muse. So many complex, differently styled songs. Matt B's a musical genius and the band is so tight. A pleasure for the last 20 years or so. A band that has so many quality songs. No throw away songs from these guys. This is what I appreciate the most and similar in this way, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater, Rush, and many others. Greatness and consistency!

[@MaxRosewater]

You have a great taste in music. Steven Wilson and Dream Theater hell yeah

[@strayfreckles]

Matt Bellamy's voice never fails to give me chills, he's amazing.

[@TheMiataDriver]

I love this version of Sing for Absolution! So much power and emotion!

[@wingracer1614]

I'm not that big a fan of this song on the album (though it's one of my favorite albums) but for whatever reason, it works so much better live. Every live performance of it I have seen has been great.

[@wizard1370]

@@wingracer1614 how?

[@Deimos585]

I'm a big muse fan as well. There's just no one else who sounds like them.

[@dalianmoya]

but they sound like a lot of other artists, that’s for sure.

[@PedroMiguel-qd5mo]

@@dalianmoya Say other band that created similar songs to Space Dementia, Citizen Erased, Butterflies & Hurricanes, Showbiz 😀

[@dalianmoya]

Pedro Miguel of course they have songs that don’t sound like anyone else. if you weren’t so dense, you’d understand what heavy influences they have.

[@PedroMiguel-qd5mo]

@@dalianmoya They have so many good influences like Queen, a bit of Pink Floyd, Rage Against The Machine, Nirvana, Jeff Buckley or some classic composers too and all together in Muse. They're the only one modern band that still gives me goosbumps. And sorry If sound dense to you it was not my intention. ☺

[@travisfs7526]

Dalian Moya your first comment is meaninglessness if you are saying they sound like other bands due to influences.... every band has influences that’s how music is made.

[@pinkpolly88]

I never understood Muse - I thought they were just overproduced and trying too hard - until I (I'm ashamed to say) reluctantly went to see them live with my then-boyfriend. Suddenly it all made sense! I can't get enough of them now. Matt Bellamy is one of the best singers I've heard live. And they are all incredible musicians. I loved watching your reaction to this because it's exactly how I was reacting!

[@wingracer1614]

They are one of those very rare bands that are often actually better live than in the studio.

[@ExarchGaming]

Frankly, Matt Bellamy is one of the greatest vocalists in the world, and one of the best of this century.

[@Bmused247]

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has noticed this, but I love how in the song "Time is Running out", Matt takes a deep inhale after every line. He's such a strong vocalist

[@Eclecktro]

It's pretty much in every song - at a certain point I couldn't unhear them anymore 😅

[@brandonb.5304]

It perfectly fits that particular song because the lyrics talk about feeling asphyxiated.

[@dianaoh8316]

Matt's voice has accompanied me in the best and worst moments of my life. He is simply amazing. Thank you for this

[@parkerkenney6113]

It’s crazy how the crowd is just as loud as Matt during the chorus. I can only imagine the feeling of standing on stage and hearing a giant crowd sing the lyrics back to you.

[@MrSammotube]

I feel like Matt Bellamy can do many genres, pop, rock, opera - his voice is so versatile.

[@_Muser23]

Aaahh yes! I love love love Muse!!!

[@sunfan007]

I hear muse everyday and they give beautiful music in simplicity. Each instrument in the band doesnt complicate its parts rather than keep them simple and put this kind of divine harmony between each single note. I love them with their music they will never die.

[@LeeMaitland]

You would love Muse - the handler, live at roskilde, unreal.

[@SubwaySweden]

aaaah Muse, that takes me back. Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry was on repeat for over a year :-)

[@johnnyj2d3]

Muse... the name it's so perfect for this band... my favorite band, the singer that made me love music and go ahead with singing and learning guitar... and then piano... it's thanks to them

[@Skedaddlemahgaggle]

I've listened to a couple of your vocal evaluations of Muse. I LOVE hearing you break it down. I subscribed because of this video. You bring the songs to life in a way I never heard. Wonderful.

[@meghanmonroe]

Matt Bellamy is such a powerhouse. I'm always blown away when he opens his mouth.

[@stevenhodges9680]

As usual, this was a wonderful start to my day. Your enthusiasm is infectious!

[@anthonyzuppa2189]

This very makes me so happy. The way you get so excited is so adorable. The analysis almost makes me cry because the way Muse first hit me was captivating. You were dead on the way he produces this “ dream like” state with everything incorporated into one to resonate with each other. More simply put, Muse is the band that plays in the background of life and makes everyone stop what they’re doing to listen. The world sat still when I first listened to Muse as if it were a spell cast on my ears. Many comparisons to Buckley and Mercury and Yorke but Matt Bellamy truly is his own breed and Muse are their own kind.

[@anthonyzuppa2189]

This video * not very

[@baAarong1938]

Matt is brill for that talk box distortion.. The end of the song muscle museum has a vocal solo that sounds like a guitar but its just his voice through guitar affects.. Its so cool

[@wingracer1614]

Muscle Museum is my favorite song from them. So freakin bizarre, I love it.

[@nadogrl]

Matt Bellamy has such a distinct and wonderful voice that fits the music perfectly. Another brilliant vocalist I haven't seen mentioned is Mike Patton. His discography and range is incredible. Faith No More, Mr Bungle, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, Fantomas, Mondo Cane are just some of his bands.

[@RolandDeschain1]

Bellamy is wonderful but I wouldn't call him unique. He's basically Jeff Buckley and Thom Yorke.

[@premiers1]

And recently, Mike Patton in "DEAD CROSS"

[@CarlosMartinez-xs2bn]

All I could hear is pure magic!

[@EnterTheNameHere_Bohemian]

"He sounded like he had a distortion on the end there" - that's because there is a distortion on the vocal input kicking right at that moment up till the end of the song. One thing which only few people are aware of is Muse is 3 guys band (4 now) but some of their songs have more instruments than 3 (4) - How do they do it? Backing tracks? Meeeh, what about programming some midi devices instead, some arpeggios for example or maybe percussion here and there or couple of strings? Get some timer, so everyone is in sync and... let the show begin! Muse use effects and technology to enrich their performance like getting orchestra or other things you might not notice, but would immediately feel are missing if they weren't there... That's magic too...

[@bobarina]

Honestly one of their best

[@SebHaarfagre]

I don't understand how he can play such complex stuff on the guitar *AND* sing with such complexity at the same time. I've never understood that. lol Edit: Let me rephrase that. *IMPROVISE* such complex stuff (even).
