Made mah day.

Would I know this Kirkhope from anywhere?

[MaestroUGC]

He's the composer of the Banjo-Kazooie games, as well as other stuff since then.

[Sebastian]

Aaaaaand Donkey Kong 64, Banjo-Tooie, and MUCH MORE.

[mikey]

Then no.  No I would not.

[Olimar12345]

speaking of them, which ones should I watch out for?

It's looking like sheik + the retail exclusives are the ones to look out for this wave.

[Nebbles]

I'd love to give David Wise a thank you for the music in Diddy Kong Racing, as it's one of my favorite N64 games. I still love the soundtrack greatly to this day.

New Muse album. Apparently they're stripping away all the silly electronics and symphonics they've grown rather fond of. Which is good since Absolution is my fav Muse album. Yay <3

I've heard this a couple of months ago and I'm so exciteeeeed
I think they're going for a more Origin of Symmetry- maybe even Showbiz-like sound, rather than Absolution. That album was more space rock with quite some electronic stuff. There's a whole speculation page about it somewhere

Well, it was much less electronic-reliant than anything following it(though it was very spacey, and I like that) and I wouldn't think they'd do a total 180 on the sound they've developed over the last 10 years.

But then again, it is Muse. They made dubstep with actual fucking instruments.

[Bloop]

I just read Matt said the album will sound more like Absolution and Black Hooes hm

orchestra rock dubstep best dubstep

FINALLY!

I loved their early stuff (Showbiz, Absolution and Origin of Symmetry) -- I DID NOT like the 2nd Law. Not one bit.

My group of friends in high school was obsessed with Knights of Cydonia when I was a junior. One of them was a metalhead.

A lot of good music is coming out this year!

[Bloop]

2nd Law wasn't that bad, it was just something different. I didn't like Madness, Survival and Big Freeze at first, but I've grown to like them

Those are the only ones I somewhat like.

I remember when I first got the album. I was with some of my residents in my car and then Unsustainable comes on and we just start laughing when the dubstep comes in.

I also really like half the songs from The Resistance and a few from Black Holes (I have the Resistance on Vinyl)

[FierceDeity]

Would I know this Kirkhope from anywhere?

I swear, sometimes I wonder if you're even aware of the existence of google

[Bloop]

There are just a few album songs I don't like. The only two that come to my head are Fillip and Guiding Light

Yea I felt the same about both Resistance and 2nd Law when they released.  I've grown to like most of Resistance, but only a few of 2nd Law.  Panic Station was immediately a favorite though since it just sounds like a Queen song :B  Animals and Supremacy are always fun as well.

I'm also a silly fanboy and have flac of every single and EP including the super old stuff like "Muse EP" that has earlier recordings of 3 of the Showbiz tracks.  There are some gem B-sides like The Groove, Fury, Eternally Missed, and Spiral Static that are some of my favorite Muse songs actually.


But yea, I've been looking forward to this album for a while
