Fury was supposed to be on absolution but Chris and Dom outvoted Matt to put on Thoughts of a Dying Atheist instead.
haha really? those twats fury was badass. I konw they didnt put futurism on that(?) album coz it was too hard to play live (the only live recording does sound pretty bad) but that was awesome as well.
I'm not saying that as a hole black holes was a bad album, but some of the tracks, namely "Supermassive Black Hole" and "Assassin" are complete dregs of songs and both the new songs from the Resistance in my opinion blow some of the stronger material from that album out of the water, so I dunno.
i see what you mean, really, supermassive black hole should never have been a single, and songs like soldiers poem shuldn't evne be on a muse album. invincible's alright coz it gets massive at the end so yeah, the new singles are better than the bhar ones but there still quite a way behind the other singles.
and if you think about it noone expected them to follow up plug in baby with anything as good/better so hysteria was a massive shock and its not like they cant right amazing songs like that, if they've done it (at least) twice. knights of cydonia was not quite there, but as a live opener its amazing. i was just hoping for another like that and neither of the two do that for me. maybe the 3rd one will you never know
