    “‘Kill Or Be Killed’ is Muse at their heaviest! We wanted to update our hard rock sound on this album and with KOBK we found a modern metal sound featuring double bass drum action and even a death growl. Lyrically the song takes influence from my favourite Paul McCartney song “Live and Let Die”, a dark take on how life’s adversity can sometimes bring out the worst human instincts to survival at any costs.” - Matt

    Dominic Howard is a killer drummer yet so underrated.
    I won't be surprised if their next album is a full metal album. But whatever you want, Muse. Even if it's a jazz album, I'll be happy... won't take it for granted.

      @@kirizute I won't spend much time complaining about my faves after my most fave musician died years ago. It's really devastating even to date because he had to deal with health problem and mass bullying for years and years. The later led to his death as a broken soul. He also didn't release many albums. It took him around 4-6 years to release one. So I feel lucky Muse have released 9 albums so far. They have their ups and downs just like other human being but seeing them still making whatever music they want with original line up, healthy and enjoy performing live, anything else is not worth to be complained about. Not all bands/solo artists on this planet could survive this long like them.

      bless you buddy.. I used to dislike some of their albums too and wish they make music like their old songs. and then I came across a comment that has similar connotation to yours. since then I changed my mind. the fact that muse has been together more than 20 years and also actively make music, we should appreciate them at this point. I had similar experience to yours when my fave disband, members left etc. all I want is new music but that didn't happen often 😢

    “KILL OR BE KILLED”
    Cornered, I’m exhausted with fear
    Our love and compassion dissolved
    And demons, have materialised in me
    Can’t fight them, they’re taking control
    And we’ve tried, oh we’ve tried so hard to be good
    But the world rewards us when we’re bad
    Fate, is driving me insane
    It’s forcing me to face
    I must kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed
    They’ve driven a stake right through my heart
    I’m growing so cold and detached
    And I’ve tried, oh I’ve tried so hard to spread love
    But she prefers it when I assert control
    Fate has brought us here to face
    Our hopes and dreams erased
    Either kill or be killed
    Yah, Yah Yah Yah, Yah Yahweh Yah Yahweh Yah Yah Yah
    Yah Yah Yah
    Ah Eh Yah Yah
    Yah Yah Yah
    Kill or be killed
    War
    Kill or be killed
    Yaaahhh
    Yah Yah Yah Yah Yah Yah
    Either kill or be killed
    Fate, is driving me insane
    It’s forcing me to face
    I must kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed

      - The Handler for the intro
      - Hyper Music for the main riff
      - Reapers (the scream on "kill or be killed lyrics reminds me a lot of "Here come the drones" lyrics)
      - Map Of The Problematique / Resistance on the pre-chorus (drums, background atmosphere)
      - Blockades for the chorus (vocals)
      - Mercy / Stockholm Syndrome (synth)
      - Break It To Me (phrygian rythm before the solo)
      - Psycho for the break ( it's remind me the loud guitar)
      - New Born (solo)
      Yeah, probably the best Muse song.

    I was a huge Muse fan in 00's as a teen, then somehow I forgot about their music for years I really have no idea why! And then this year randomly I thought about my favourite Muse's songs and get lost in their music once again. It feels like coming back home to a good ol' friend. Good to be back musers! I love the new album.

    LYRICS:
    Kill or be killed
    Cornered, I'm exhausted with fear
    Our love and compassion dissolve
    Demons have materialised in me
    Can't fight them, they're taking control
    Tried, oh, I've tried, so hard to be good
    But the world rewards us when we’re bad
    Fate
    Is driving me insane
    Is forcing me to face
    I must kill or be killed
    Driven a stake right through my heart
    I'm growing so cold and detached
    Tried, oh, I've tried, so hard to spread love
    But she prefers it when I assert control
    Fate
    Has brought us here to face
    Our hopes and dreams erased
    Either kill or be killed
    Either kill or be killed
    Fate
    Is driving me insane
    Is forcing me to face
    I must kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed
    Kill or be killed

    Matt in one of his latest interviews said that he wanted to go more into Heavy Metal so in that song or in Won't Stand down he entered the double bass drum like in Heavy Metal or Core Metal bands. He continued and said that everyday he come to rhe studio he pussed Dominic (an outstanding drummer for me , and I'm a Dream Theater fan) to work double bass lines because until then he was a very good single bass drum player.
    Matt is a TRUE leader . He puss in every album the band to its limits. And he even pussed himself with this PHENOMENAL ARPEGGIO TAPPING SOLO .😱 Kill or be killed could be without any doubt a HIT of any Metal Band !

    Ive been on youtube for years and never commented on anything. Muse were my first obsession, they were my first ever gig, when i was 10 at a bar in wolverhampton just before showbiz was released. From then on i was obsessed, muse were the band that got me through family suicides, social isolation and everything else that came with growing up. I was an obsessive, when they hit it big it felt like a part of me was there with them, i couldnt have been prouder of matt, dom and chris (i even tried to fake back stage passes to their earls cort show when i was 14, but lost my nerve to use them!).
    In time i fell away from them. But this track has just ignited something. Its hit a nerve and im officially back on the wagon. I feel 17 again. Thank you.

    This has to be one of the best in years! Love the work with the whammy pedal. Sounds like a lot of their classics combined. 🤘

      Same, at the end of the movie High Tension, New Born played and I had to find out who the heck created such a haunting sound. Been a fan ever since.

    It's totally the drums that do it for me in this song. Drums and vocals.
