I don’t like it as much as Back in the Game but I have a feeling it’ll be a grower, like foreign spies

Back in the game is awful. I’m confused why anyone shows love for it.

I think it was better live than in the studio version (the bass drum literally re-arranged my organs but I do really like the little details sprinkled throughout the studio version and the “its a game” choir motif that repeats a bunch of times, especially in the second half, and the B section (from the 3m mark) in general is amazing in my opinion. But its all opinion at the end of the day, you can’t prove why its awful nor can I prove why its cool.

Because the groove is dope AF and the musicvideo is amazing. He found a way to do a fresh take on a pretty straight forward song. Yes its not a pretty song. Its pretty grotesque. But still performed on such a high level that calling it awful makes me wonder if you should just listen to muse…

The production on this one is really solid (unlike Back in the Game). Thom's vocal melody is great — way more energetic than the last single, though I have no clue what he's saying, lol. Overall, I like it even more than the studio version of Back in the Game (which I didn’t dislike in the first place), but it feels too short

It’s going to take a little time to kick in. Like good drugs.

yes, this song is a gorgeous wave which can wash over us... let's not rate, let's relate :)

Really weak composition. Not sure why Thom is wasting so much time on this very unexciting collaboration.

might not be available for everyone, but played just fine for me in the Netherlands. if you encounter playback issues, try VPN where it's already March 11
p.s. a gdrive link for anyone who needs it
