Best Live Band In The Universe At Staples Center – Sep-26


Brian May of Queen said Muse is one of the greatest live acts of our time. He even thinks Muse are better than he was, though Muse told Brian May that Queen’s music was an influence. Having seen Muse at Coachella 2010, and hearing so many wonderful things about them, I knew it would be a great show. But now trying to describe their greatness live seems like an overwhelming task.

Muse live is like a neutron star collision, supermassive black hole, and starlight at warp speed…and that doesn’t even seem like enough. The intensity of their live act combined with the raised platforms and LED screens on the sides of the platforms gave everyone a great view. Their set towered imposingly on the stage during the opening act, ominous even though covered by screening. Humorously, bassist Wolstenholme’s screening got stuck and had to be torn down manually. Not only that, their stage set is dangerous. A fall from one of those platforms could…well, let’s not think about it.

They opened with “Uprising,” a surprising choice considering that it’s been a huge radio hit. It combines electronica with heavy-hitting guitars. But that song doesn’t come close to their most fabulous. They encouraged singing along by projecting the words on their LED screens for an audience choir of 20,000. Why not get the audience singing from the start?

For those who saw them at Coachella 2010, but this was even more amazing—even without the pyrotechnics they used then. Part of their visual interest, even for a distant audience, is that they perform in 360 fashion, seeming to visit every inch of stage at least once. Muse, particularly Matt Bellamy, could write a book on whole body performing. Even his backside is interesting to watch. The kings of grandiose physical gesture also tone it down beautifully to pull every eye to their smaller gestures. When they stood still, the audience focused every eye on them.

Not everyone viewed the concert in the same way, my seats were next to the stage and it was mindblowing to watch Dom Howard’s drumming without obstruction or depending on his image to be flashed across the screen as at Coachella. The ease and strength he possesses at the kit is an absolute wonder to behold, even from 200 feet away. Even though he spent most of his time on the kit, he used different drums for “Undisclosed Desires” which allowed him to stand close to the front of the stage. He also played orchestral timpani. He is one of the great drummers of our time for the way he rapidly alternates rhythms and styles with steady power and grace.

If he were a hip hop drummer, he would have started out with a bombastic nickname, but he’s truly earned a moniker by now: The Dominator. Find out more about The Dominator at a fan website, www.musedrums.co.uk which features drum tabs and videos. Check it out.

Longtime fans enjoyed hearing very old favorites like “Bliss,” “Plug In, Baby,” and the hard metallic drive of “Stockholm Syndrome.” There isn’t a bad song in the set. Muse can do everything musically. They cover nearly every style from the hip-hop informed beats of “Supermassive Black Hole” and funky grooving bass of “Undisclosed Desires” to space opera/ intergallactic western soundtrack material and heavy metal.

It’s pleasant to think of the band playing more intimate venues, as they once did. Even without all the bombast of their set, the show would still be amazing. But it would be sheer delight to watch Matt Bellamy play the piano and be able to see his fingers fly on the keys from a lot closer. The piano he uses in concert ranks far cooler than anything Elton John had. Under a clear top, lights change inside as he plays each note. Add Bellamy’s mirrored suit and Venetian blind sunglasses and he takes his place among the most fabulous of glam rockers.

Not everyone likes “Neutron Star Collision” because of its glamrock throwback style and connection to Twilight, though the song certainly sounds like them lyrically, vocally, and instrumentally. Muse fans ought to give Bellamy a break, he wrote it after a breakup with his longterm girlfriend in 2009. We already know he loves Queen and I’m guessing he secretly likes Leonard Cohen or Abba. The hardcore cosmonaut has often sung about his heart. Mixed in among “radio unfriendly” Stockholm syndromes, plug in babys and hard- driving supermassive black holes, they also hold the more delicate tones of “Absolution,” “Unintended” and the fragile “Soldier’s Poem” though they did not select those for this concert.

Happily, for devoted fans, Muse concerts have not become events awash with teeny-bopper Twi-hards as some may fear. Now, now Twi-hards. Before you go off in a huff, think of it differently. Longtime Muse fans want to keep Muse to themselves as much as you would like to keep Taylor Lautner (Jacob) or Robert Pattinson (Edward) to yourselves. But Matt Bella-my loves you, “Of course it doesn’t matter we have gained fans because of Twilight and that might seem to be uncool. That doesn’t bother me at all.” Honestly, just wait till you hear some of their really hard metallic-tinged stuff, the stuff that reminds us, as our parents did, that the younger generation is going to the dogs–but for real this time. (It’s also fairly certain Twi-hard moms will draw the line at Twilight soundtrack brother Cee-Lo Green’s Youtube sensation video, “F**k You!”)

Bellamy’s voice still sparkles like starlight, at times evoking a few tears in the audience. His voice has held out remarkably well for the amount of singing and performing (and partying) he’s doing on this tour. His voice cut out on him momentarily a handful of times on very top notes of songs, though that’s the peril of live singing. It’s completely excuseable. The scope, range, ambition, and virtuosity of these songs takes an intense amount of vocal power and skill, and vocal chords are really just two little folds of flesh which can bruise and blister. Using scintillating instrumentals, blues riff interludes while pianos are moved to platforms, or impromptu audience sing-alongs definitely helps pace the concert for him vocally while thrilling the audience. Fans wish Bellamy’s glorious voice to last as long as possible. Forever would be nice, if it’s not too much to ask of the universe.

One of the KROQ DJs (That was Ted Stryker, btw – Nat) riled up the crowd by asking before the show, “For how many of you is Muse your favorite band of all time?” That seems too small in scope. If the aliens are watching us, it’s because Muse is their favorite band of all time and eternity in the universe. Of course, alien rockers also enjoyed Queen’s Flash Gordon soundtrack, Depeche Mode’s Songs of the Universe and the Beastie Boys’ “Intergalactic..” But Muse catapulted themselves to intergallactic attention with atomic force because of The Resistance. Everything they do sprinkles stardust into our ears.

Muse Staples Center Fotos y Reseña













With U2 on tour hiatus until 2011, no other group looks more poised to take over its biggest-band-in-the-world status than Muse, and the British trio proved its mettle with a mighty performance Saturday at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Muse has unofficially received that blessing anyway, opening some of U2′s stadium dates last year. Right now, what other band can summon such epic prowess and passion? Coldplay? Perhaps, but that group enchants more than thunders. Muse’s greatest songs — from storm-the-heavens anthems to melodramatic ballads — are last chances, gambles with fate, challenges to the gods,

Muse always sounded bigger than the theater-size places it first played in the U.S. while already filling much larger venues in Europe. America started to catch on a few years ago, and now the band is huge not just in sound and but in appeal. This past week’s swing through Southern California included three arena dates — two weekend shows at Staples and one at the Honda Center in Anaheim — so the group could’ve just played a single stadium show and surely could’ve pulled that off as it did just weeks ago at Wembley in London.

Employing a battery of videos screens that at times looked like giant shards of glass, there were massive views of the band, provocative images that ranged from DNA helix to anti-war footage, Technicolor nature scenes and more surreal eye candy. The lighting, which included the use of lasers — almost a nostalgic nod to the ’70s — was equally dazzling.

But those visuals never trumped the music, which always came first, a barrage of art and progressive, glam, hard rock, even heavy metal.

The band played on the large expanse of stage and also above it on risers that seemed to bring the trio of frontman guitarist-keyboardist Matthew Bellamy, bassist-keyboardist Christopher Wolstenholme and drummer Dominic Howard even closer to the full house. This is a power trio, with power in bold face, assisted by longtime tour keyboardist Morgan Nicholls.

The set led off with a big-beat boom bounce of “Uprising,” followed by the racing defiance of the title track of the group’s current album “The Resistance,” its fifth studio set.

Bellamy’s Prince-like falsetto quivered over the metallic space funk of “Supermassive Black Hole,” and the group lashed one of several sonic storms for the whipping whirlwind of “Hysteria.”

With Bellamy at piano, the band played the eclectic Brit card covering (as it has for several years now) the slinky Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse number “Feeling Good,” dating to the 1964 musical “The Roar of the Greasepaint, the Smell of the Crowd,” a truthful slice of showbiz-success commentary, followed by the group’s own yearning power ballad “Guiding Light.”

Still Muse’s biggest hit across the board, the beaming throb of the cosmic “Starlight” brought the night’s loudest sing-along, especially for the refrain of “black holes and revelations” (which surely must have Professor Stephen Hawking smiling back at Cambridge).

The band followed with another winner in the snaking riff and rock ‘n’ roll abandon of “Plug In Baby,” then Bellamy strummed the recognizable opening for “House of the Rising Sun,” and the crowd spanning several generations started singing the lyrics as the tune gave way to the pulsing desperation and clutching, crying hope of “Time Is Running Out.”

The encore tunes included the overture from the group’s ambitious (and perhaps over-reaching) “Exogenesis: Symphony” and the more compact galloping fantasy “Knights of Cydonia,” which closed the evening.

Sure, it’s easy to play the band summit game with Muse: The Who meets Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix, melded with Queen and even Emerson, Lake and Palmer for a galactic quest. True, those touchstones and others can be found in the band, but it arrived at its own distinctive sound and style during the 2000s, and some of today’s newest bands have described using Muse as a reference point.

Muse has always been built to last, and its steady ascendancy to arena and stadium level has come through the years with shows that deliver much more then some pop flavor that’s here today and a footnote tomorrow. It’s a genuine concert experience.

At a time — again — when great rock doesn’t show up much in CHR/Top 40, Muse’s Staples performance was a reminder of how that potent that experience can be in concert, really more than any other: uplifting, sweeping and far greater than a hit of the season or trend of the year.

Matt Bellamy ,Profesor de Guitarra??


Ps eso parece ser; que nuestro excelente guitarrista ahora enseñara.Quien ha tenido la suerte de ser su pupilo? Pues ni más ni menos que el bueno de Kurt Russell.
Asi es el ''padrasto de Kate Hudson le pidio cordialmente a Matt unas clases de guitarra y el obviamente acepto :)

Quien haya visto a Muse en directo sabrá de lo que es capaz de hacer con una guitarra el genio de Matt Bellamy, su líder. Es de los pocos frontmans actuales capaces de dejarte con la boca abierta durante todo el tiempo que dura uno de sus shows. Su carisma, su talento, su técnica y su presencia escénica hacen que la atención durante un concierto de Muse no decaiga ni un solo instante.
Al parecer, la idea de que Matt ayude a repasar y reforzar las nociones de guitarra de Russell le resulta muy atractiva tanto al propio Kurt como a su novia Goldie. Por otra parte, la pareja está esperando tener un pequeño ‘descanso’ para tomarse un tiempo de relax en Hawaii. ¿Invitarán a Matt a la isla? ¿QUE LES PARECE EHH? Post: quien no quisiera que matt te enseñara personalmente a tocar guitarra =p

Muse en anuncio de Dior

Hace unos días se estrenó el nuevo anuncio/film de Christian Dior Perfumes llamado Un Rendez Vous, que estuvo dirigido por Guy Ritchie.

Entre los ingredientes británicos también podemos encontrar al actor Jude Law y la música de Muse. Este es el tercer anuncio que Law realiza para la firma francesa, y fue rodado en París junto a la bella modelo eslovaca Michaela Kocianova. Y como si fuera poca esta combinación de estilo, también se puede ver un Mercedes Benz 190, sí…

Este perfume ideal como fragancia nocturna masculina. Sus notas contienen lavanda, lo que la hace principalmente una nota floral y cumarina, con una faceta amaderada. Su esencia se extrae mediante destilación por vapor del agua de las flores recién cortadas. Su faceta misteriosa y sensual se realza en la nota superior de Eau Sauvage Extrême y de Dior Homme.

Gira otoñal por America


Tras unos días de descanso y después de poner fin a su gira europea en el mítico estadio de Wembley, Muse se prepara para subir de nuevo al escenario, en lo que será su segundo paso por tierras americanas este año. Esta mini gira empieza esta misma noche, 22 de septiembre, en San Diego y terminará el 31 de octubre en Nueva Orleans.

"Feeling Good" votada como el mejor cover


Esta fue la noticia que sacó mirror.co.uk:

Rock trio Muse have been lauded for the greatest cover version of all time, with their rendition of Feeling Good.

The band's cover of the track - originally made famous by Nina Simone - topped a poll of music fans, beating performances by the Clash, Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Buckley.

The survey for car maker Seat to promote new Channel 4 music show On Track With, which starts tonight, found the worst ever cover is Britney Spears's I Love Rock 'N' Roll.

The Muse track is currently being used in trails for BBC4's Mad Men and was the subject of a legal wrangle in 2003 when it was used for a Nescafe ad.

The band chose to record the song because it was a favourite of an ex-girlfriend and once modestly declared: "Our interpretation is quite different from the original, but nowhere near as good."


More than 15,000 music fans took part in the poll, which placed Twist And Shout by The Beatles in second place and Johnny Cash's cover of Nine Inch Nails song Hurt at three.

Luke Lewis, deputy editor of NME.com, said: "The cover versions we love are generally the ones that radically overhaul the original."

The new show, sponsored by Seat, will see artists such as Foals, Ellie Goulding and The Coral performing covers alongside their own songs.

The covers will then be given away to 10,000 fans at www.club-SEAT.co.uk.

- Top 10 best cover versions: 1. Muse - Feeling Good. 2. The Beatles - Twist and Shout. 3. Johnny Cash - Hurt. 4. Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe. 5. Nirvana - Where Did You Sleep Last Night. 6. The Clash - I Fought The Law. 7. Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah. 8. Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower. 9. Marvin Gaye - I Heard It Through The Grapevine. 10. The White Stripes - I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself.

- Top 10 worst cover versions: 1. Britney Spears - I Love Rock 'N' Roll. 2. Ronan Keating - Fairytale Of New York. 3. Celine Dion - You Shook Me All Night Long. 4. Take That - Smells Like Teen Spirit. 5. M People - Itchycoo Park. 6. Robbie Williams - Song 2. 7. Will Young - Light My Fire. 8. Madonna - American Pie. 9. Limp Bizkit - Faith. 10. Mark Ronson - No One Knows.



NOTICIA COMPLETA

Interview: Muse – Paranoid, Glam and Supermassive


Maybe I hadn’t been paying enough attention. It was only at last year’s Children In Need concert, broadcast on prime time which featured the great and the good of British pop that it finally sunk in just how huge Muse have become – they were there appearing with Sir Paul McCartney, Take That, Leona Lewis and Paulo Nutini. Weren’t Muse the alternative Radiohead-lite band from Devon who sing politically loaded and enjoyably paranoid lyrics against the system and all it stands for? In fact, Muse, while managing to retain something of their outsider status, were evidently bigger – at least, for now – than any of the other acts.

They sell stadiums out faster than Coldplay, their last album Resistance went to the top of the charts in 20 countries and even got to Number 3 in the States, and they are playing massive venues on their current tour (see theartsdesk’s review of their Wembley Stadium gig a couple of weeks ago: “awesome, dazzling, dizzying”) not to mention planning a ground-breaking tour of Eurasia, playing countries like Tajikistan that bands usually don’t get to play.

‘We are aware that at any point we are one step away from a Spinal Tap moment, especially if you have a complicated stage show like ours.’

Seeing them on their last tour at a sell-out stadium to 25,000 people in Antwerp on their current European tour, they definitely give the impression of a band whose trajectory is rapidly upwardly mobile “We want to be the biggest band in the world – we’re not ashamed to say that,” says bassist Chris Wolstenholme, who I met before the Antwerp gig. “We’ve always been a very ambitious band,” said drummer Dom Howard, “we always had big ideas beyond our abilities.” Whereas with some bands the feeling is of a front man and songwriter and a backing band, Muse have a strong band ethos fused over ten years and five albums “through plenty of bad times as well as good”.

Wolstenhome is still based in Teignmouth, Devon where the band formed and developed and seems to be the most down-to-earth member of the band, while Howard lives in London and singer Matt Bellamy is based in Lake Como, living in the house that used to belong to the composer Bellini and where they have their own studio (which was where they self-produced Resistance). The band had recently returned from touring with U2 in the States. As Chris put it, “what blew me away and was totally inspiring was the way that they’ve been together for so long and still enjoy playing music.”

The utter confidence of the band was palpable, kicking off the show with their single “Uprising” and playing over half their new album, only just released at the time, which most of the audience already knew the lyrics to, and having the nerve of doing the 16-minute “Exogenesis Symphony” as part of the encore. The show was as spectacular as any rock gig you’re likely to see with rising walls of massive video projections suggesting a dystopian cityscape. It’s by turns, absurd, inspiring, funny and at times moving, and it was not surprising that the band have picked up assorted best live act in the world awards such as at the Q Awards.

But it is precisely this level of showmanship and ambitiousness that has caused the most resistance among some of the more serious-minded rock critics, who prize the virtue of authenticity above all others. Muse are the other end of the spectrum to the likes of Bruce Springsteen or Manu Chao. Veteran rock critic Jon Pareles of the New York Times complained that the band “overdecorated its troubled songs with the virtuosic guitar, keyboard and vocal excesses of Matt Bellamy, including a quasi-classical piano interlude worthy of Liberace. Mr Bellamy was the most conventionally gifted singer on the bill, and the most insufferable one.”

The lyrical excesses of Matt Bellamy, often full of references to an only vaguely defined powerful elite who are controlling the world, have also alienated some critics. But, as Bellamy said to me in Antwerp, when I suggested they were walking a very fine line between seriousness and preposterousness, people don’t always get the humour of the band. “We had more fun making Resistance than at any time since before the first album. We often would crack up in the studio. But even the most serious-minded people, and we are that, can’t be serious all of the time.”

Bellamy sees Muse as part of a tradition of bands like Genesis, Queen and Depeche Mode, all of whom have been highly successful globally if not always critically acclaimed at home. “People really appreciate that slightly mad, eccentric English tradition around the world. Bands in the 90s seem to forget the entertainment aspect of rock music.” He adds that he has been thinking of appearing on stage in a bird costume. Bellamy is only too conscious of the inherent ridiculousness of rock stardom “We are aware that at any point we are one step away from a Spinal Tap moment, especially if you have a complicated stage show like ours.”

One of the strengths of the band, he believes – although others see it as a weakness – is the massive range of musical influences on the band. Resistance quotes, not always in a fully digested manner, from Chopin, Saint-Saëns, Blondie and, more than anything, Queen. “I never understood bands who were only influenced by a narrow era of say five years of music. I think younger bands like us listen to more diverse music than previously, because it’s so easily accessible.” In spite of that he thinks that “Muse have one of the strongest identities of any band around now. But it’s more of an emotional identity than anything else.”

‘The world has been engineered around corporate thinking – maybe there’s some good things about that, but very bad for a lot of other things.’

While London bands, Bellamy feels “are more concerned with what is cool, it’s never been the most important thing for us”, citing his love of Prog Rock. “I think we have a lot in common with classical composers of the 19th century, although I’m not claiming to have their intelligence. They wanted to create a musical explosion, to blow the crowd away. Opera can be exceptionally moving, but can also be pompous.”

Bellamy’s father was a member of The Tornadoes, whose biggest hit was the futuristic Telstar, produced by the visionary producer Joe Meek, so “thinking big musically has been part of my upbringing.” The lyrics, says Bellamy, “have to match the epic nature of the music.” For the single “Uprising”, a glorious mix of the Dr Who theme tune, Blondie’s “Call Me” and Glam Rock, he sings “Paranoia is in bloom” and talks of “drugs to keep us all dumbed down”, with a glorious sing-along chorus line of “They will not control us, We will be victorious.”

The previous night the tour was in Berlin. We ended up talking about how Hitler, with his lighting designer Albert Speer, was the first amplified rock star. How Barack Obama ran, at least in part, as a rock star with stadium gigs (and that’s opened the door to the likes of Sarah Palin to do the same). Bellamy is aware of the crowd energy and how it can transmute into hysteria. “In the early albums I used to write as ‘I’ – now I notice I’m using ‘we’ a lot more.” Their sense of the ludicrous is their saving grace, though, at the same time played with all the conviction and intensity they can muster. When I say that the band is actually a kind of safety valve for the kind of crowd hysteria dictators in particular and politicians in general exploit, he agrees, sort of: “We are engaging the people, there’s a place to do it without being risky or damaging.”

Muse plug into a vaguely disquieting sense we all have, especially in the UK where there are more CCTV cameras than anywhere in the world, that we are being constantly monitored. Every call or purchase can be traced. So who is out to get us, exactly? “The world has been engineered around corporate thinking – maybe there’s some good things about that, but very bad for a lot of other things. Some people are rejecting that.”

Bellamy says the album’s key image was of the love story in Orwell’s 1984. While he has been “reserved” about being specific about his politics – “I’m a musician, not a speech-writer” – when pressed, he says things like how he thinks “the entire tax system should be overhauled in favour of a land value tax”, that corporations shouldn’t own nature or the forests, and that he believes that “We are on the brink of something as spectacular as the 60s. Because of things like climate change, the collapse of the economy and corrupt politicians, we will have a dramatic reaction against the older generation. It might be wishful thinking, though.”

He’s intrigued by all the talk of 2012 as a watershed year, the end of the Mayan calendar, and fancies playing New Zealand to see the fateful year in first. The soundtrack to the Revolution will be part metal, part Prog Rock, part classical but it will be, if Muse have anything to do with it, somewhat paranoid but hugely entertaining. A glam-rock, metal uprising.

HAPPY B-DAY ''THE RESISTANCE''


Hoy estamos de celebracion porque hoy se cumple 1 año de la produccion del quinto album de nuestro gran grupo MUSE;recordemos que fue producido por matt bellamy, dominic howard y chris Wolstenholme en Lake Como, Italy. Recordemos un poco mas de este buen Album: The resistance (La resistencia) es el título del quinto álbum de Muse. Se anuncia como un disco que "contiene canciones que reivindican el personal e inimitable sonido de Muse junto con temas que supondrán una sorpresa para los seguidores del grupo inglés. En el álbum se puede encontrar una rica variedad de influencias que van de Queen, el Glam rock, Chopin, Depeche Mode, Timbaland a '1984' la novela de George Orwell o el control mundial de Estados Unidos". Grabado en los estudios que Matt Bellamy posee en el norte de Italia, cerca del lago Cuomo. Producido por el propio grupo. Mezclado por Mark "Spike" Stent (Oasis, Depeche Mode). Incluye el tema United States of Euroasia. Y como primer single Uprising, anunciada como "una canción de rock bailable fresca, innovadora, un rompe pistas de rock del siglo XXI". Matt Bellamy declaró a la revista británica Mojo "Hay canciones que realmente están influenciadas por el R&B contemporáneo, particularmente por el productor Timbaland; beats fuertes, sincopados, muy melódicos, con voces rítmicas...Dom (Howard, batería) ha hecho todas las programaciones. Al final del disco, el álbum es casi música clásica. No es el tipo de orquestación que se espera habitualmente de un grupo de rock, y nosotros hemos hecho todos los arreglos. Hemos estado en Milán haciendo las grabaciones orquestales con 40 músicos, un grupo de grandes intérpretes y con ganas de experimentar". Matt se refiere a Exogenesis, una ambiciosa sinfonía dividida en tres partes. Hay momentos delicados como I belong to you donde Bellamy canta "Viajé por medio mundo simplemente para decirte que te pertenezco". Matt comenta "Undisclosed desires es la primera canción que hemos escrito en la que no toco guitarra ni piano". Además en esta canción nos encontramos un slap bass de Chris Wolstenholme, algo muy poco habitual en Muse.

Quizás sea en el contenido de las letras donde "The resistance" tenga mas similitud con los dos discos anteriores. MK Ultra habla de temas ya introducidos en canciones como "Ruled by screcy" (Absolution) como los programas de control mental de la CIA de los años 50. "United States of Euroasia" esta influida por la obra de Zbigniew Brzezinski, escritor polaco y consejero del antiguo presidente de Estados Unidos Jimmy Carter. "En su libro 'The grand chessboard', Brzenzinski piensa que las regiones de Eurasia (Europa, Asia y el Oriente Medio) tienen que ser controladas por America para asegurar el suministro de petróleo", comenta Matt. "El habla de manera muy clara de su vision del mundo como un tablero de ajedrez. Esto combinado con la obvia referencia orwelliana al estado de Eurasia en '1984' inspiró la letra de esa canción". La peculiar violencia de la era moderna, expresada en canciones como "Assasin" (Black holes…) o el hit single "Time is running out" (Absolution), vuelve en "Uprising". "Se supone que son hooligans de fútbol cantando contra la situación bancaria mundial!" dice Matt.
"The resistance" es la primera incursión de Muse en la auto-producción. "Como no teníamos un productor, tuvimos que resolver todas las discusiones sobre la música nosotros mismos", aseguró Dom al NME. "Así que si dos personas estaban teniendo una discusión , dependía de la tercera persona el resolver ese tema!". Además el grupo trabajó sin ninguna presión por entregar el disco. "Teníamos tiempo ilimitado para trabajar, lo que fue muy bueno para nosotros". A pesar de todo hizo falta algo de paciencia y fé entre los tres amigos de la infancia para que "Exogenesis" viera la luz. "Tuve que conseguir que los otros dos confiaran en mi con esta canción, pero creo que al final quedó genial!". El álbum se lanza en 4 formatos: CD; CD + DVD (con el making of del disco de 44 minutos); descarga digital (MP3 256); y box-set de lujo en edición limitada de 5 mil copias, con extras.
