i would go so far as to say Muse is rock for clever people
'When we bleed,we bleed the same". get it right ya'll
been accumalating pictures of my favourite boys of the mo. well, mostly lead man Matt Bellamy lah. just cos he plays the guitar so bloody effortlessly..and he does it with such finesse, 'tude and um..controlled spunk!. he's like, i'm a bloody rockstar but i;m not like those mad fuckers, the stones. or actually babyshambles. whose brilliance is outshone by crack and weed and whatever else you can abuse in general.and i love the way his nose has so much character. but that is an insignificant detail that only silly me picks up on -_-
and while i'm at it, Black Holes and Revelations is a brilliant awesome fantastic mindblowing i cant say MAGNIFICENT enough album
i love how he takes the piss on the idea of democracy in City of Delusion, and faffs on about "Ooh baby i'm a fool for you" in supermassive black hole and how depeche mode, Map of the Problematique sounds. i love their Queen-esque rock opera falsettos in the climax of Knights of Cydonia. and the grimy, HEAVY bass and drum patterns on the anti-war Assassin. the anthemic, almsot stadium rock number, Invincible, with a sick guitar solo that sends arenas of people reeling with amazement. Take A Bow..a song that is as beautiful as it is cataclysmic. and at the end of it all, its just how matt is just a plain ole pretentious wank whom i adore anyways. matt is genius.
typical of a muse live gig. OTT lighting..strobe lights, lasers etc. and i just LOVE that belt that he's got on!! AAAAHHHH!! someone get me something similar for xmas!!
more lasers! i believe this was from their EMA performance of Starlight. notice that rectangular panel just behind the strings at the base of his Manson (guitar)? with the circular red light. he does weird ass Synth stuff with the contraption and the light changes colours and you can see the colour change cos they black out the lights on stage. its like, virtual air guitar-esque. too cool man
edit: its called a Kaoss pad
he got a blinging guitar and we all know it. the same silver one from above..mostly i love this pic cos it caught the light so well
hare krishna on his t-shirt. a pop art version at that. HOW MUCH MORE SODDING AWESOME COULD MATT BELLAMY GET!
rocking out in a white lab coat, thats how much! AYE to that, MATTY!
matt is languid...like orsino. with pink flamingoes..and the rest of the band. i'm sorry i'm so dismissive about them, but that doesnt mean i dont totally adore Chris's totally heavy bass rifts and Dom's wicked drumming that doesn't have as much flare as say..dave grohl... but good enough :)
i named this picture sighness: the chocolate leather, the suspenders, the stubbly beginnings of a goatie. all that's missing is a clear view of his absolutely piercing blue-gray eyes. i fail at being lyrical about him. but either way, i think i'm in love.
and the hair. *icantakethisanymore sigh*
and then you think, this bugger came up with the lyrics for something like "Take A Bow"?! or Hysteria or Stockholm Syndrome?
he looks like someone out of sigur ros dammit! um ok..not really. but what i meant was, he looks harmless. nothing as intense as what comes out in the pure insanity that is Muse's lyrics and riffs. but then again you see the subtlties in his piano interludes and in the fact that they have string arrangements on tracks. mindblowing stuff..gives me goosepimples.
muse: fire up the revolution!
p.s: to really see them taking the piss..out on slipknot, go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8nw672H-Dg matt's cackling.... :D and the sombrero. just watch it :P
