Muse – Knights Of Cydonia
“Knights Of Cydonia” is one of Muse’s crowning achievement. It is a six minute plus epic monster. The intro is about two minutes long with a horn section and a gigantor, violent, nasty, dirty riff that is almost to big to handle. Some might see this song as to big and bloated for its own good. Lyrically, its not all there but they don’t try and give you to much. They repeat the key lines over and over and just hit you over the head with that riff. This is the third single off “Black Holes and Revelations” and it represents an interesting point for the band. They hit a peak and what happens after this will be fun to see.
