MUSE - Knights of Cydonia. Add it to your list. Trust me.
yep, I recommended this one on another video.
Yeaaaaah
Seconded. Thirded. Fourthed. Fifthed, and Sixthed.
Yup, this one is the one
A modern day Rhapsody.
Quick story time about this song: I heard this song for the first time on the radio back in early 2004. I was around 11 years old and I was absolutely floored by this song. Back in the days before Shazam and the Internet not being what it is now, I had to wait till the end of the song and pray that the DJ would say it’s name so I could find it at the record store. The Dj never said it so I used my grandmas cell phone and called the station to ask what song it was. The phone was really muffled and I thought he said it was “the used” and not Muse. Went to the record store and gathered all “the used” albums, got into emo music lol, but still couldn’t find this song. Fast forward 3 years later one of my friends who was pretty well versed in music PLAYED THIS SONG one day and I started freaking out. I told him I’d been looking for the name of this song for years. THAT SAME DAY, I went to the record store and bought this CD. Sorry for the long story, but this is one of my favorite songs ever and I’m so so happy you covered it! Keep up the great work I love your videos! 🤘🏾
Nice story. Thanks for sharing
That is an awesome story! Finding Muse was fun for me as well, I remember hearing one of their songs on the radio and it was definitely hard to track them down and figure out what was playing, but eventually I met a friend who was into Muse and played me an entire album. We looked for concert tickets, but in America they weren't headlining their own tours yet and were on tour with My Chemical Romance as an opening act.
We went to Merriweather Post Pavilion in Maryland and saw them live, field tickets, and it started to downpour. There ended up being a small group of about 30 of us that gathered together and were just rocking out in the rain, dancing and enjoying ourselves while everyone else waited for My Chemical Romance to come on and play.
Their last song on that set was this one, Stockholm Syndrome, and ever since I saw that live performance I realized just how freaking talented Muse is and Matt Bellamy is just an insane frontman. Still one of my favorite performances of all time and he just captured us and the stage with such charisma and presence.
Actually, that concert might of been really awesome for you to see! LOL, little Muse, little EMO, all fun!
That was quite the ride!
When I was 15 I was round my friends house he was about 10 years older than me and I was listening to this album called absolution from start to finish and I had the same floored moment! Went out and bought the album straight away as well as showbiz and origin of symmetry and hullabaloo and have listened to them most weeks ever since! Can’t get enough of them. That day I always remember as the day I found music

The bassplayer was a drummer when they met. Now he is singen background lyrics, sometimes playing guitar, helping with drums, when in the studio and ofcourse he can play keys. I forgot, he plays the harmonica, in concerts, in the beginning of Knights of Cydonia..
Great musician!
Muses Hysteria bass playing throughout the whole song is nuts. check it out!
Hysteria would be a good one. Especially with the dynamics and the layering
The bass opening of hysteria is one of the best things ever.
My man gravitates to that low bass too. He'd love it no doubt!!
I prefer the bass line of futurism. Underrated?
100% agree - please do a reaction / breakdown of Hysteria for an amazing sonic bass experience!!!
"Citizen Erased" and "Microcuts" by Muse are probably their career highlight in terms of composition
definitely. maybe add on butterflies and hurricans and a few other tracks from absolution as well imo
Aaww yeah Citizen Erazed!
Microcuts is hauntingly beautiful.
I know you're intentionally skipping over Hysteria.....
Are you guys ignoring bliss?
I’ve always thought Matt Bellamy is a musical prodigy. I mean his vocals are completely next level, his guitar playing while not GOAT status is really unique, tight and melodic, and he’s a brilliant classically trained pianist.
He’s barely trained; he’s said he can’t read music in interviews. He learned piano primarily by listening, which makes it even more impressive in my opinion.
he’s a songwriting genius
He loses me most times with songwriting and occasionally some questionable taste. But when he gets it right it's amazing.
And completely soulless. Same as with most of their work.
@@freda6542 Agreed. In fact, this is perfectly put. I should like Muse much more than I do. I can enjoy their tracks and admire them, but there's no connection whatsoever... no feel, no heart, nothing to transcend mere good rock tracks.
For a band composed of three members, their sounds is always so rich. It's rare.
A lefty drummer, a super cool bass guitarist, and a multi tasking front man.
They never shy away from new stuff.
Is very cool but also important to note you basically need a 2nd guitarist and a keyboard player to do it like this. The more stripped back early live stuff is quite cool in its own right.
Why I love MUSE: passion in every note, excellence, shock, power, complexity, poignancy. I can't think of many more appropriate adjectives.
This track is insane live.
Muse is insane live period :D Even if there latest albums aren't that good, live Muse is always a experience
@@TheCivildecay to me their only real dud of late has been The 2nd Law. Everything else has its own flavor and greatness.
@@immaculatetoilet imo simulation theory is my least favorite album of them
@@TheCivildecay yeah I guess if you're not into the futuristic Synthwave craze, but imo they really nailed it while also adding their own style to it. "Thought Contagion" is great.
@@immaculatetoilet well I'm a big fan of synthwave, and artists like Carpenter Brut or Pertubator, and even like those synthpop inspired songs by the weeknd. But Muse's album felt a forced to follow the synth trend instead of a authentic synthrock album (which they already made with black holes and revelations).
Also their lyrics and musical ideas went really downhill after black holes and revelations IMO
Please do butterflies and hurricanes by Muse. It's my all time favorite by them
that's the one with Rachmaninoff in it.
All of the Absolution album is gold, Butterflies and Hurricanes is a cracking piece
Muse are INCREDIBLE I highly recommend songs like Plug in Baby, Micro Cuts and Showbiz if you want to see Matthew’s extremely high voice talent. Chris is very unique with the way he distorts his bass, as someone fondly put it he distorts his bass so far up the ass that he’s become the second guitar player LOL. Many get mistaken thinking the bass is getting covered up by Matt’s guitar but nope! It’s just Chris! Some songs I recommend for seeing Chris’ bass playing skills are hysteria, time is running out, hyper music. DOM is a FANTASTIC drummer and he keeps up with the other two. All three of them solidly hold their ground, which is what makes them such a great band. I recommend listening to assassin to properly listen to Dominic’s drum power. Also highly recommend listening to liquid state, which is a song that Chris, the bass player, sings! It’s fantastic! All with a fantastic bassline as well
I love all of you I dont know how all of my favorite unpopular songs keep getting reacted to but thank you all
They're more popular than you think. We're out there. I can't wait for him to find Queens of the Stone Age or Them Crooked Vultures.
Muse is literally huge lmao
@@jammamammaa he’s listened to a bit of QOTS!
I understand muse used to be a huge band. I'm talking about THIS song. This was never a radio song it slipped through the cracks of their discog, but its still my favorite song by muse.
I played with Muse when they were 16 or 17 at an unsigned band night in Cornwall with my band, can't remember what they were called then but it wasn't muse, they won obviously, had like 4 songs that went on to be on the first album and Matt was a fricking rock god even then hehe
Rocket baby dolls
@@miralex67 Gothic Plague. . .
Love to see more Muse. Hysteria would be my recommendation purely for one of the greatest base lines ever.
You actually need to check more of Muse stuff, Matt is a great composer!
I always think about Muse like it’s Radiohead in a parallel universe where they evolved into a heavier band instead of a more experimental.
I always think of Muse as a slightly heavier Queen
Funnily enough I first saw muse as quite a shitty band in my local pub and i described them as a shitty radiohead... they've clearly improved since then!
They are very experimental as well. Very diverse sound
LOL. When I first discovered Muse, I would tell people they were like radiohead...only on crack!
Matt Bellamy and Thom Yorke's huge vocal range's are considered to be tenors. Both covering between 3 & 1/2 and 4 octaves. And they sing a lot in a high falsetto.
Muse - Knights of Cydonia. Amazing song.
If you're gonna do Muse, you HAVE to see them perform Knights of Cydonia live. It will blow your mind.
The light show was so crazy I had to sit down a minute, and I'm not epileptic or anything and I even work in the industry so I have A LOT of light shows to compare it to. It was nothing but a shit ton or PAR cans but boy did they ever program them well!
I can tell you, as someone who grew up with Muse in the change of millennia, and started learning bass so I could be in a band, _hellbent_ on finger plucking, and on learning ALL Muse songs on bass - that one was *NOT* easy 😂😂
The most technical difficult Muse track I learnt on bass before haitus was Knights of Cydonia. But then I think the part I learnt originally is a synth arpeggio, in retrospect. But never got to sure.
I learnt that I need longer fingers. LOL
Edit: You're entirely correct, this song is drop D for bassists!
As others have commented here, Knights of Cydonia is a killer song. Live from Rome Olympic stadium
What I love about Muse is their ability to make a 4 minute song seem like some epic prog masterpiece. They build so much drama and tension, can mix in synth and piano, are equally at home rocking out or playing beautiful, heart wrenching stuff. Matt is a legend but all three of them are amazing.
😡😡UGG!!! Sorry for the reload of this video - got a late block notice and had to "fix the issue". NOTE: I had said that I had done a previous review of MUSE and come to find I'm old as can be and didn't - like I always say "The older I get the better I was" - Awwwright!!
Totally understandable good sir! I think the song Hysteria would be a great adventure for ya, as it was their first major hit right before this one. Stay awesome bro. Awwwright!!!
Please react to "Globus - Orchard of Mines"
Haha, yeah you made me doubt myself with that and I searched your channel quickly. But anyway, glad you got round to Muse, they have a pretty diverse catalogue, I think you'll love them!
How do you go about “Fixing the issue” in instances like these?? Really curious to know!
@@RedCarRecords great question. All of my copyright strikes that caused me to have to re-upload always has to do with me playing their music video. So what I do is I go back in my system, remove the music video and place a piece of artwork and re-upload.
God I love this song. Takes me back to being 18, playing Morrowind. I had this album basically on repeat.
So glad to see you get round to muse. One of the few bands around these days that sound better live. i think he engineers it all himself in his own studio
They began producing after black holes and revelations iirc.
For more Muse, definitely Hysteria (as I could see you loved a good bass line) or Knights of Cydonia. I'd love to see more Radiohead as well, Motion Picture Soundtrack, Reckoner, Jigsaw Falling into Place, Present Tense, Paranoid Android, Climbing up the walls...
the first 3/4 Muse albums are amazing! You should definitely check something like New Born or Citizen Erased :)
3/4 love it... So true
definitely citizen erased. easily their best song
Drones was a decent return to form IMO. After the first 3 they started leaning too heavily into electronica and prog for me...
All their albums are incredible, let’s not lie here. Matthew is an utter genius writer. DOM knows how to keep up with Matthew’s batshit craziness on the drums and then there’s Chris who’s sitting here doing things in a bass no one has done before.
+1 for Citizen Erased.
I think you would like butterflies and hurricanes by muse
Hysteria-muse
Amazing sounds from a 3 piece band. How Matt manages to sing and play those riffs at the same time amazes me!
Producer: how many effects do you want on the-
Matt and the boys: YES.
I'm someone who loves radiohead and muse. Map of the Problematique and Ruled by Secrecy would be good tracks to dissect.
I love those songs so much!
Map and this jam are the only two that have stood the test of time, for me, anyways (from Muse). Great tunes though
Exogenesis part1,2,3 it was a piece written by Matt Bellamy and features a full orchestra..absolutely stunning piece you should dissect Geebz!
You will love exogenesis symphony parts 1, 2 and 3 by muse. It is considered as their masterpiece. Make sure you listen to all three parts in one go
I just commented the same thing. You can't choose just one, you need to listen to all three! Strings, dynamics, composition, it's definitely one he should check out!
yeah he's gotta listen to those as a single track
This song is a literal gem. One of their best. Every time I hear it I get chills and adrenaline. So damn good
One of Muse's best tracks, easy. I dropped off of them just after their fourth album but really dug their early stuff; Origin of Symmetry in particular goes hard with some great tracks in Plug In Baby, New Born and Hyper Music (and a great cover of Feelin' Good for something a bit different).
I went off them for a while as well. But I really love their 2018 album Simulation Theory. Its still very different to their earlier stuff, going to a sort of 80s eletro style i guess. But just some really great tunes. I recommend. I think despite how much their sound has changed over the years, they are still top tier musicians.
SUNBURN!!
@@paulstoliker3303 SHOWBIZ!
(Muscle Museum, Hysteria and Map of the Problematique also some other faves )
@@OmegaSoypreme Yeah even though they weren't for me anymore, can't deny how incredibly talented they are. I might check out something recent out of curiousity.
Butterflies and Hurricanes is a really fun Muse track!
I've never really listened to radio, not a fan of pop music and commercials make me want to scoop out my sensory organs with a rusty spoon, but around 2005 my cd player stopped working and on one late night drive to get some food, I tuned to the local rock station and this song came on. By the first chorus I had pulled over and was just blown away by what I was listening to and after it was over I turned around foodless and headed home to get on the radio stations website to see what the hell just happened.
Been a huge Muse fan ever since.
I've been listening to Stockholm Syndrome more than 19 years, almost every day, and I'm always amazed.
You are going to have a great time with this band. They are ridiculously talented. This is coming from a Tool fan, and you know we're all geniuses. 😁
I agree whole heartedly. I discovered both Tool and Muse in the last 2 years and became absolutely obsessed over them. They became 2 of my all-time favorites *instantly*.
I got to see Muse in concert just before the Covid shutdown. That was so awesome.
Now "Nightwish" is my latest find I am deep diving on.
Not pick of the day: Muse formed in 1994. Mars Volta begin in 2001. So Mars Volta SOUNDS LIKE Muse. Not the other way around.
Not pick of the day: It's *nitpick*
He just said Matt's voice reminds him of the singer from Mars Volta. This is a Muse review and he is using the other singer's voice as a point of reference so it is completely ok for him to say it that way.
Muse makes me feel like my next breath could be snatched from me at any time. Love how they build a tension that emphasises the subject matter and tone, to the point that one grimaces and experiences a physical intensity that is hard to contain.
Man, there's SO MUCH to talk about Muse productionwise! Please keep diving into their older material. Also, biggest Gojira fan here, keep those coming too ;)
Muse is my favorite band of all time and they have been since I was 6, so I’m heavily influenced by them musically. This track’s also from my favorite album of all time. I’m happy you did a breakdown of this song, it means a lot to me! I’d recommend Butterflies & hurricanes, Assassin, and Knights of Cydonia for future videos! Thanks :)
Assassin is so underrated.
So why u prefer using ghost bc pfp?
Matt Bellamy is an amazing composer! Not sure it would work in this format, but their 3 part Space Opera, Exogenis: Symphony, is mind blowing!
Agreed. I think Geebz would appreciate that more than most people.
This is my absolute favorite track from Muse, so thanks for reacting to it and explaining what you heard...You should have a fun checking “The Globalist” out, that one is a MASTERPIECE.
Let's goo, one of my favorite muse songs
When you paused it right before the hook I was about to lose my damn mind. I was so relieved when you said you'd go back a second.
Muse are one of the best live bands I ever saw. I'm not even a big fan (except the first couple of albums) but live they were absolutely amazing. Especially for a 3 piece. How do they get such a massive, fat sound?
God I miss this era Muse
Me too, I love the first 4 albums so much (Resistance is a 50/50 for me)
HYSTERIA HYSTERIA HYSTERIA HYSTERIA for BASS!!!!!!!!
Blew my mind live. Sydney. Big day out.
MUSE!! First three albums are SO freakin amazing. You never disappoint, Geebz. I enjoy your channel so much! Thanks!
As a composer, I’d love to hear your reaction to Muse’s Exogenesis Symphony.
Muse has been one of my favourite bands since I started listening to them in like 2003/4. It's fun to hear you break down the songs elements from your composer perspective, you've picked out a few details which I've never noticed which was super cool!
This is easily my top 3 songs from Muse. DEFINITELY need to check out New Born by them. That's off the album before this one called Origin of Symmetry. Panic station would also be a great pick to show some of their growth and change. They played around with more electronic sounds gor a while starting in 2006? With Black Holes and Revelations.
Plug In Baby! Hook Heavy!
Awwwwwright! I'm glad you're getting into muse! I really love their discography. Their evolution as a band is really interesting. I got into them when i first heard "knights of cydonia"... and was like, "I've never heard anything quite like that!"... Lots of electronic sound on their newer stuff like "madness" or " dig down" on tracks that i love, that i wouldn't typically be drawn to...but they make it work, and well! I love this band!!
aaaaah holy shizzle I was a fan of Muse from their first album and when I bought Absolution this song blew my nuts off! Glad to see you doing it dude!
edit: a memory I have from uni is a flatmate getting the music book/tab list for Muse's second album and sitting in his room going "WHAT! What are you doing? This isn't a chord!"
•••Not bad for a 3 pc eh? I only learned of Muse myself when I moved to London 7 yrs ago and they quickly knocked Queen and Foo Fighters from my #1 top spots as my all time favs (seen Queen 3x before “the end” and FF’s a dozen times + and still going). Seen Muse only twice since pandemic hit but can’t wait for more!!! Bass is awesome. Drummer has an interesting backstory. Matt (writer / guitarist / crazy singer and scale) his “thing” that caught my attention is allot of his lyrics don’t rhythm and drop sin harmonies that are mind blowing. Plays 7 string guitar but now owns Mansion guitars too! (just as some background info) 👍🏻
BB
PS; just to show exactly how spot on you are from listening to that one track - you mentioned their engineer? Check this bonus video out. LOVE this behind the scenes making of 2nd law. Covers every point you made about texture, layers, bassist and drummer (getting it and sometimes not not getting it) plus how Muse is NOT a “3 chord bog standard rock band”. Matt writes all these sections and back pieces and is a true 2000’s prodigy. This is why bubble gum rock of today doesn’t stand up to classics of yesterday and today! (IMHO) b.b.

Thanks for getting around to Muse! Definitely one of my favorites. I tried to comment on the first upload but just missed it haha. If you end up getting back around to them, I bet you'd dig the strings arrangements in Exogenesis Symphony 1, 2, and 3. Knights of Cydonia is also crazy, and the song Hysteria has one of the best rock bass riffs of all time.
I love how much you're vibing to the outro!
I recommend Hysteria too, awesome song
Butterflies and hurricanes is a beautiful piece of music by Muse! Have a great day, thank you for the video
Just one of the most amazing three piece bands ever... so much creativity and a wealth of amazing compositions.
This is my favourite Muse song, as well as citizen erased. Musically, muse are literally genius. They are so special to me ❤️
Hysteria. Hysteria is what you need. Please God react to Hysteria. You’re going to lose your mind jamming to that bass line.
Man that bass line still melts my brain. Chris’ poor fingers every time 😆
Man, you timed that first pause to the micro second before the chorus began, and that really threw me off for a bit.
Citizen Erased next please!
Strapping young Lad - Almost Again Please react to this you will love it. some amazing guitar work, an unbelievable vocal performance from Devin Townsend and some of the best metal drumming there is and my favourite groove of all time!
More more more more more MUSE.
Please.
This is a top 5 Muse song for me. One of the greatest trios of all time. Better live than on recording. More Muse reactions please. Maybe Muscle Museum, Newborn, or Knights of Cydonia. I also have an off the wall request. Portished - Wandering Star.
Thanks for doing my recommendation!!!
20 years later it still gives me chills.
I love your breakdowns on such a broad swath of music Geebz. Keep it up!!
Loved this reaction! You're awesome. It was great to get a composers perspective on one of my favourite songs!
love your analysis of this song and I feel like in terms of production this band will seriously impress you the further you look into them. would love to see more!
Thanks again Geebs! I really enjoy your breakdowns and explanations of sonic nuances, especially when it’s artists I’ve listened to frequently but didn’t know how to describe what I was hearing. Cheers.
Love how you talked about how the bass changed the feel of the bridge, something I've always loved when he changes it!
So happy you did this song!! One of my request, epic song and the whole album is a masterpiece. Thanks 🙏
I was able to watch the earlier video, but feel like I gotta watch it again...because it was such an excellent breakdown of one of my favorite songs!! Thanks again, Geebz!! This made my day! 💕
You finally did "Muse"!! That makes me very happy.
They have so many fantastic songs, you could really go down a huge rabbit hole on this group, trust me. Matt's vocal range is ridiculous. such a wonderful falsetto. He is a master guitarist AND pianist as well. See "Butterflies and Hurricanes" and the incomparable epic "Exogenesis Symphony" (all 3 parts). If you do not go crazy over those, I will eat your surfboard.
"Madness", "Uprising", "Supermassive Black Hole" and "Knights of Cydonia" are some big highlights, but I could list 2 dozen easily.
Just watch their "Live at Rome Olympic stadium" concert. One of the best concert videos ever.
Love these guys, my favourite band of all time. Would love to see more reactions
It's so fun and educating hearing all this insight from someone with experience on the subject.
THX for make this video!!!
i recomend you another ones
Muse-Exogenesis symphony
Such a great breakdown of muse. Like how you picked up on so many nuances. Enjoy the channel.
great song!
Finally Muse!! Would love to see you do Butterflies & Hurricanes
Loving the channel. One I'd love to see you examine is Civil Twilight's Letter's from the Sky
amazing reaction, as always! would love to see some more muse, as well as some more queens of the stone age or them crooked vultures. take care!
Note: Those are not sequenced in the chorus. Those are Mr. Bellamy's outstanding classical piano skills at work. Nice vid!
Those chorus arpeggios are indeed sequenced. Watch the making-of documentary. You can see them mapping the midi
Thank you.... Great Reaction. Love Muse, seen em live and are better live than recorded. Hope to see more..
This is my favourite from them always has been always will be, ty for this, your reaction is great. Never heard it broken down like this, I really appreciate. My sister is the Muse fan in our family, and this one just stuck with me. Hugs from Sweden ( and Stockholm, lol )
Love Muse, this was the first song I ever heard from them and fell in love. The first single off this album. Then I had the pleasure of seeing perform live, fucking blew my mind how good they are live. Glad to see you picking up on them.
Do more Muse! Especially their old songs. Love your breakdowns
Great song- thanks for doing it!!! Glad you enjoyed it! That riff at the end is insane and the bass is savage! Aloha🤙🏻
AWESOME finally some Muse :D I've started playing guitar loving their riffs and being able to learn them even as a beginner.
Yes! More MUSE please! One of my favorite bands.
This is one of the very first Muse songs I listened to way back in the day. Been a fan ever since.
I know this is one of their radio-friendly songs, but 'Madness' by them I highly recommend.
Also Aviations - Outliers (Retrospect) 🤘
I find Madness has a beautiful fuzziness that really goes against the lyrics.
Symphony X - The Odyssey. It's pretty long, but all worth it
Absolutely love Muse, happy to see them here. This song is absolutely incredible live.
