Knights of Cydonia

"Knights Of Cydonia" by Muse is an awesome song with an awesome music video.

I heard it live a couple of years ago. My bones were pulverised by the awesomeness.

Boring. I'm disappoint. The music only starts at around 4:15, everything before that is boredom and also boredom. Song's shitty too.

any song from absolution is just way better than this.

No arguing about matters of taste, as the Romans put it. However....

I don't know about you, but I listen to the music, rather than the album it's placed on.

Listen, no one MAKES you admit the obvious, but you may at least not play around with the meaning of words to look smug.

Okay, you are clearly insane.

Man, if you think the first 4 minutes aren't even music, then it's a good thing you don't post in the Music subforum. Half the stuff people listen to over there make this sound like Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Apparently, when someone isn't singing, it isn't music.

I'll go tell Beethoven that, shall I?

Joe Satriani must be a really sucky artist then.

You can't even write racist abuse in excrement on somebody's car without the politically correct brigade jumping down your throat!

Everything off of Origin of Symmetry was better.

I misread it as Knights Of Xentar.

Keeper of The Celestial Flame

I thought it would be about the manga. Which I've never read.

People aren't as awful as the internet makes them out to be.

There's a manga called Knights of Cydonia?

Yep, by Tsutomu Nihei. But as I said, I never read it. I just saw it a few times when I went to a book shop or the manga/anime shop, I often visit.

Knights Of Sidonia, FYI. And there's no similarity, though it's not bad in itself.

I walked into this thread to find a really weird conversation going on.

Anyway, I feel like "Knights of Cydonia" might just be one of the most badass songs of all time.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

Great video that invokes West World for its theme and its a good movie, too.

I believe Film.West World also inspired Literature.Jurassic Park
