My Muse

Vaikka brittiläisen, pikkuklubeilta stadioneille nousseen rock-suuruus Musen edellinen albumi jättikin lopulta hieman innottomaksi, en malta odottaa, mitä kolmikko saa aikaan seuraavalle pitkäsoitolleen. Marraskuussa Bellamy tweettasi menevänsä studioon ja musiikillisen suunnan olevan "christian gangsta rap jazz odyssey, with some ambient rebellious dubstep and face melting metal flamenco cowboy psychedelia". Huhh. Mutta ei kai pojilta voi muuta odottaakaan?

Levyä saanemme vielä odottaa, mutta koska minulla on tällä hetkellä vaihteeksi lauluinnostus menossa, palataan hetkeksi vanhaan. Stockholm Syndrome on Muse TOP30 -listani ykkönen, ja syystä. Se leikittelee, räjähtelee ja tarjoaa taustabiitit niin laulamiselle kuin angstiselle ja/tai iloluontoiselle riehumisellekin. Ja on yksi maailman parhaista keikkabiiseistä.

During the years Muse has gone from playing at small clubs to a stadion-sized rock phenomenon. Although their last album was a bit too uninspiring (compared to the previous ones, that is), I can't wait what the trio will come up with in the future. Last November Bellamy tweeted about hitting the studio and told that their new musical direction will be "christian gangsta rap jazz odyssey, with some ambient rebellious dubstep and face melting metal flamenco cowboy psychedelia". Phew. But then again, that's just what you might expect from the guys.

For a couple of days I've been feeling like I'd want to sing all the time. So as we still have to wait for the new Muse album for a while, let's get back the good old stuff. Stockholm Syndrome is number one on my Muse TOP30 list and for a reason. It's playful, exploding, raging and offers a great background for singing and both angsty and cheerful rampaging. And is one of the best live songs ever!
