As We Die Alone - Thunderstorm

Advantages: using cello with guitar,calm,blue.....
Disadvantages: it's sometimes too blue!

..., imagine how nice the cello with acoustic guitar can be…. The song stops… it seems like the end…no…the drums hits fast, low and gets louder it seems like distortion is coming….. no!….back to cello…!nice move!! With "Coming closer every day, forever autumn" the song ends. 4- Pagan Wish This time faster and harder, with distorted chords a clean guitar with a nice effect plays along the main note of the chords. Then with a little bit high pitch and a strong will, mixed with some evil "Daniel" sings: "Wish I could split the night in two I wish I could what I would do to you" Even though the song is somehow hard, but the flute appears in the chorus: "I'll be the cyclone how it strays I'll be the moon escaping there I'll be your cancer now, the sun that eats away" Then distortion stops and clean guitar stays alone: "We used to climb the highest...

Advantages: solid heavy metal, exhibiting the rough charme of a debut album w/ rather low-fi production
Disadvantages: approximately 38 minutes constitute a rather short spell of time

...on a stormy night.

...band, you may expect something totally different. No matter, the album itself is just great. It seems a tad like a concept album, but is not. Speaking of concepts, with Muse's obvious affinity to prog. rock, a concept album could be on the cards next. Could be very good. As for this offering, Muse have taken a less 'abrasive' route here. Some tracks are soft and astounding, others are a bit too commercial for my tastes. I never thought Bellamy would write cliched lyrics, but they crop up once or twice here, especially on 'Time is running out'. The album is the first to credit all of the band with writing the music, although Bellamy still writes lyrics alone. The artwork portrays a suited man/casual woman staring up at the sky in awe. Shadows of what appear to be flying people are cast on the concrete below. 1) Intro. We open... Read review
