A New Album From Muse!

So I went on youtube a few days ago and searched Muse. So looking for one of the songs which i usually listen to like, Knights Of Cydonia, Hysteria, New Born and Supermassive Black Hole (of course i listen to their live performences, which are, way-way better than the original versions) and I suddenly found a few new videos posted up there, Muse - Uprising and Muse - United States Of Eurasia (+Collateral Damage). So I tough about it and went to the band's web page, muse.mu, it appears that the band is releassing a new album on the 14th of September this year(I'm surely gonna buy it)

So, I decided to listen to these two songs, starting of first with Upsrising.

MUSE - UPRISING
I was totally taken by suprise by this song, it sounded so-so different from their other songs, this song was much more electric and had a distinct rhytm, it sounds more like a singalong at a huge Muse concert (which i would love to go to), where everyone would be singing along to the rhytm of the chorus saying "come on!". Yeah some people are thinking " Hey?! What the hell happened to the old Muse?! This sounds like a shit-load of bull-crap!" But on the contrary I think that muse have evolved their sound, again!

MUSE - UNITED STATES OF EURASIA(+COLLATERAL DAMAGE)
And again! This song totally blew me away! With the slow start at the begining of the song with the pieano and the bass with amazing vocals from Bellamey, and suddenly it goes into an outburst with an amazing sounding orchestra! Surely in this song Bellamey's great tallent for composing amazing rhytms and melodies wows me again. The collateral damage is actually a piano solo, where Bellamey plays with an orchestra accompaniying him. Just by listening one can actually here a distinct Queen influenced song, with the lyrics and the melody. But with the music itself, Bellamey really has been influenced by great composers such as Chopin and Rachamininoff, where you can hear the distinct sound of Chopin's nocturne op.9 no.2 but you can feel the soul of Russia.

with all of these factors taken into place, I have concluded that this album will be a very-very awe-som-eh album.

*legend*
awe-som-eh - it's like saying awesome with an emphasised eh at the back, where it exagerates awesome, in other words it's better than awesome, it's awe-som-eh.
