Muse - Hyper Music (Early Version)

[excelisinsane]

when he screamed, I fell off my chair. Fucking epic!

[blurred37]

I guess almost every band has to test out the Scremo waters at some point. Not their finest moment.

[Floorberry]

God Matt can scream too? What the hell can't he do?

Besides make bad music that is...

[PumpkinKyuubi]

aloha stratocaster =D

[dopejoel]

we hate on the resistance, but I bet that if something happens like they disband then EVERYONE will appreciate ALL Muse CD's

[chibishade]

How has Matt not destroyed his voice?!?!..... oh yeah, he's Matt Bellamy :)

[alphermail]

And here we see how muse are influenced by rage against the machine lol.

[mattbellamy17]

MUSE-UNTITLED

[epikoh]

Love this song! Check cover of Hyper Music at our profile, first video, covered by Mirza Zaza!

[j3s0n]

From when MUSE didn't churn out "1984: The Musical"

[Sumdude54]

Why isn't he doing the ohhhhh right that's my favorite part

[niaj4]

How does Matt Bellamy NOT have tinnitus :O ?!?

[musejames93]

what year was this? 2000?

[flo6473]

no it was 20000

[AltRockIsMyLife]

I think we should steal the foutain of youth from jack sparrow and give it to matt :P

[MsRissa13]

WOW!! Young Bellamy sure can scream! 0_0

[TheAllin1channel]

@kenzoi

no apocalypse please :D

[zcguitar]

i like the part were he said WHAAAA lol

[Minjo26]

I love Matt's improv riffs but anyone else like just bass and drums better for the part after the first verse like in the recorded version?

[spikypete]

@Minjo26 Yeah the second verse sounds really good when the guitar cuts out on the studio version and its just bass and drums and the vocals.

[viviqvable]

|o|

[krapticfool]

It's [V] not MTV

[thesmithman99]

o_o

[HyperMusic89]

this is EPIC.

[FuriousMuze]

Man. I wished they played this song live more :/

[myooooz]

Btw, 2:44 nice mic shot thar o.O

[myooooz]

Needs more awesome.

[WaitWhatPro]

Criss's hair lol

[marintaylor1]

anyone who thinks their a bunch of prog rock pussies because of the resistance needs to watch this ASAP. no hate meant, i fucking love the resistance it's bloody brilliant but some people are unaware that they can unleash this kind of emotion and raw angst like this.

[FR4ZZ3L]

@grandiaguy

You do know static means still?

[superfineclock]

this looks like an early chris and dom and a later matt

[Selena15Steve2007]

I Miss Old Muse....

whatta journey they made.....

and now Matt is gunna be a new Dad

for (whoreface-loving-leadsingers-­of-any-band-bitch) Kate hudson :'(

[callan122]

OMG i remember seeing this on channel [V] and saying to myself.......E-P-I-C!!!!

[ColtInterviews]

they said their next album would have a more personal feel unlike their newer one which is usually performed in an arena... so maybe more of an intense feeling instead of grand opera sorta thing the newer ones got going on?

[omo3tetia4]

F***ing Awesome !!! A pity that this epic song's only 3 minutes long

[bubule123456789]

@grandiaguy One thing you should know (if you don't indeed :) )

That when Matthew Bellamy sings like that on Hyper Music, he's just ruining his voice =/ specially at the chorus.

But I agree when you say they can make songs with a younger energy, more intensive.

[DaMaLoJo]

i like how the camera keeps trying to do a close-up on matt but misses him because he's already gone

crazy man, we love him so

[loliver3]

*jizzespants*

[viviianticona]

WOOOW!! Love this version, is so deep xD

[basscovers1]

muse could make justin bibier sound good...... yes they could achive the impossible ;D

[superhatch123]

Woah that was a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig scream XD

[KariinBlackKeys]

bass line *.*

[SuperLeafy]

woah. i wish he woud scream like that a little more often :/

[PinzquBall]

ePiC!!!!!

[XLittleMissTickleX]

thats raw

i love it

[ZatchShowbiz]

who new matt did screamo? o_O

[jamdcfc10eng]

mental. all i can say...

[09button]

Matt showing one of his idols was Kurt Cobain here with that corus :) Love this performance, of one of there best songs :) MUSE FOREVER!!!

[nocturnezero]

They should rerelease Hyper Music with this chorus.

[KesObsessed]

Two words: Fucking Epic.

[11geosno]

That was bloody mental!

[YouSWETube]

haha the crowd was totally silent after the song!

[mattbellamylover06]

my god, i dont no how someone can scream like that and then also have that amazing voice! Matt Bellamy has to be one hell of a brilliant singer ;) no one has to tell me that though, go muse!!

[MrHenrick1]

If The Resistance was released first they probably wouldn't have been as loved as they are now. Just as well it wasn't!...this shows you just what Matt Bellamy is capable of.

[Limpahi5]

This song is so fucking great

[MrBassGuy201]

i liek it

[killerkite333]

fuckin' epic. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BlakeIsOWNAGE]

1:46 = hilarious

they try to show Matt again but he's gone cause he's gone crazy lol

[jkcheese]

Best version of Hyper Music. Why didn't they keep the angry screams in? Pure awesomeness and great raw energy and drama used.

[Norce555]

@jkcheese Because he would never be able to do it live several times every week ofc...

[DanishPastryy]

@jkcheese I think there are some pretty gnarly screams in the final version.. More controlled screams, but not angry? Doubt it :)

[jkcheese]

@DanishPastryy Actually, i come back here and after the release of Origin of Symmetry and in the actual OoS tour, they DID play Hyper Music with crazy, angry screaming. Just look at Hyper Music at Montreux Jazz Festival 2002. It's rather epic :P

[DanishPastryy]

@jkcheese Yeah, i just meant that they were more melodic, than just plain screams :) No doubt, the epicness is in fact present in so many muse songs.

We are on the page my internet friend ;)

[jkcheese]

@DanishPastryy Aha, yep. :)

[MrMattMuse]

Screams Matt

[thecitizenme]

love seeing dom just waiting to hit the hi-hat XD

[owtinoz]

@thecitizenme same here xD

[thecitizenme]

@owtinoz lol XD

[Roystonsmum101]

I love chris in these videos (and all the rest of the time, of course) purely seeing as he always looks stoned XD

[ikomplex]

so freakin sick!

why can't they still be like this

[flyingmonkeycrap]

i love chris' floppy hair :D

[MixatoFreeKill]

lol matt had a stratocaster xD

[HoodedSword]

Awesome! I wish Matt would scream like that more.

[Mkamalid]

fuzz factory all over the place :D

[drumchris92]

screaming is better than in any other version. fact.

[kinga2938]

the most frightening song about love in music history.

[MaulSlasher]

@kinga2938 If you think that the song is about love,that's frightening xD

[MistaRowland]

@kenzoi Oh sorry I didn't mean to be rude. And I'm gonna have to disagree with that statement. But they're still cranking out good tunes and that's all that matters really.

[MistaRowland]

@kenzoi *evolving.

And I'll compare whatever I want, thanks. They are, after all, both albums by the same group of people. Why wouldn't I compare them? I can still enjoy both albums if I do.

[bobek3x]

theres nothing strange about this version..its exactly the same as the studio one

[ApogyX]

that screaming is so cool

[punkpunkkid]

this is rare too see matt play a strat, anybody know where he got it, i mean that guitar, not a strat becouse i know how to get a strat:P maybe som pictures of him with it??

[ironmaidenrule81]

lol at chris' long hair

[hazman725]

I love at 2:45 how the camera goes to film Matt at the mic but he's not even there!

[DieToFeelAlive]

this is mindblowing, god they´re so great! I love how they WERE back then and I love them equally as much as they ARE now!

People change and music change, thats just how it is...only narrow-minded folks get stuck in the past.

[YeahPaulDay]

@DieToFeelAlive good man! :D

[manufan1999]

I reckon that this performance was shortly before recording of OOS, as Matt has his shiny Manson

[guitarf666]

@manufan1999

That's not a Manson. It's a Fender Strat...

[Chemie89]

agreed

[daem0nclaw]

you blind boy?

[manufan1999]

Sorry if my guitar recognition skills aren't as good as yours. No need for all the super-negative comments. The basic shape of Matt's Mansons is similar to that of a Fender Strat, so, as I own neither of the two, how was I to know the difference?

[funfunfunfunfun1]

matts mansons were loosely based on the tele, its just streched/sharpened horns

[manufan1999]

@funfunfunfunfun1 As I said, I am no guitar expert.

[teazy94]

@manufan1999 I'd say they are more similiar to a Les Paul.

[halofreak117222]

I DONT WANT U!!! AND I NEVER WILL!! lolz he screaming so aWESOMELY!!

[cvbandgeek7]

haha matt used to be one crazy motherfucker

[Kueller917J]

Who says he's not now? He just acts more calmed in performances now

[manufan1999]

In the Osaka performance of Supermassive Blackhole earlier this year, he licked the Kaoss pad for the solo. I'd say that that is some "crazy motherfucker" like behaviour.

[JoeEllis1026]

why do they never play this song anymore... I think it's one of their strongest songs in terms atmosphere and power topped with a great bassline and a kickass guitar bit before the chorus, and discordancy used at just the right level to produce the intense effect... much better than the over-rated TIRO or SMBH

[michiemouse2]

@JoeEllis1026

his voice gets absolute fucked during this song tho. so it would need 2 be an ending song but it just doesnt fit

[museticalsuburbia]

sometimes I harp back to this raw Muse era. Matt's vocal chords would be shot by now if he'd continued like this. I love it though!

[ihatescreamobands]

they look so different =0 matt's using a strat, chris looks like he needs a workout and a haircut and dom looks about the same except he has shorter hair

[CiaraistheWalrus]

haha you have to love the screams

[Raiden2370]

Yes, quite a lot of screaming. I love it!

[ToiletZacke]

Why the fuck are you talking about fruits!? :S

[museLP24]

yes, murder your guitar, we love it!!!

[Calusa92]

love this bass line, and the long hair on chris :D

[K33hl]

matt's sreams were too crazy...aha...

[72EllieC]

oh no do we have to have a disscusion about what album we prefer? how about it's like comparing apples to oranges- they are both fruit but taste very different! does anyone get were i'm going with this?

[D1bUjan]

lol diffeerent people like different fruits, but that doesn't mean that just cuz one person doesn't like apples doesn't mean they like fruits in general. I get it haha.

[72EllieC]

thank you!

I like apples

[anelovesmusic]

think his scream is very crazyy^^

[AnyaSama]

Hyper Musiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiic <3 My favourite song ever!! WHAA SDJHSBDJHSD So pretty *-*

[SamCurran41]

hhahaha :D

this is muse, not the fuckin resistance :o

[MistaRowland]

The Resistance is a great record. Much better than their last few. That said, it will never hold a candle to Origin.

[AnyaSama]

I liked the Resistance better than Origin C:

[SamCurran41]

you must be american

[MistaRowland]

Fair enough. I love The Resistance but it doesn't have the raw power, fire and ultimately brilliant angst of Origin of Symmetry.

[AnyaSama]

I agree on that XD Origin sounds much more aggressive than The Resistance C: But love the revolutionary lyrics(and 1984 inspired ones haha)! <3

[PvtZ]

@MistaRowland Long live Origin of Symmetry xD

[YouSWETube]

@MistaRowland Yeah, The Resistance almost suck in comparison to this!

[AnyaSama]

huhh? D:

[rociomorlan]

ajúa!!!

[MrShowbiz9]

If only he screams like that in their live now ... awsome =)

[SamCurran41]

well hes got a keytar now, no screeaming now... which is amazingly shit :(

[lilsweetiexx]

wow. that is AMAZING! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

[Mommafia]

I want to know how Hyper Chondriac Music mutated into this song.

[anonymouse1018]

Other way round.

[Mommafia]

Thanks for the clarification. The Hullaballoo version is an almost perfect song to me. Must be evolution.

[kinglol999]

MATT SCREAM MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HecticVirus334]

It's rare for Matt to scream like THAT, damn...

I DON'T WANT YOU!!! AAAGGHHH!!

XD

[realtoyz13]

@HecticVirus334 it does fit the lyrics :P

[HecticVirus334]

@realtoyz13 Haha, You're right XD

[MingoFrenzy]

@HecticVirus334 it was epic.

[lelacocou]

Matt estaba enojado ese dia che! jaja

[Mouthpart1]

One of my favourite bass riff's everrrrrr...

[AilzBabes]

classic.

he should scream more, its awesome.

[HarrisonQ]

haha i like the screams. but i also like that he toned it down for later performances.

and i like when he finds a crazy medium of the two >:)

[rozkrokokrok]

:O ?!

[nanerpants]

This is why I hate ampeg, too burpy and compressed

[KingAdrock909]

i like this one

but in my opnion the one from montreux or hullabaloo is much better and more energy

[SamCurran41]

it saays muse untitled at the bottom haha :D

best hypermusic ever :D

[ryann2795]

basically i love muse, but i also like songs with a lot of screaming. this was certainly an interesting an interesting compromise... :)

[hellonoyesyoko]

the aloha strat. iv heard of it but iv never seen matt playin it

[nuttyboy13]

He plays it on the Hullabaloo DVD on one song (Can't remember which) because I was confused when I saw it aswell.

[Rix1111]

2 songs:

Sunburn and Unintended

[tyger131313]

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnice screams

[WildDog542]

there was once a day when i would of considered this kinda stuff shit.....i was delusional

[Radhazardman]

I couldn't imagine what would happen to his voice if he still screamed like that every time it was played.

Then again, it's Matt Bellamy.

Considering events such as the Bizzare Music Festival, I doubt having his vocal chords removed could cause him to lose his voice.

[MusicalMinority]

Bizarre Festival... I don't even how that can be humanly explained.

[inferneko]

Wow, now that was really loud, then it really was HYPER music

Amazing, I love it.

[BellamysGirl]

LOVE the screams <3

[nightshot999]

The screams actually sound damn good. I hope they have some crazy screams in the new album :D

[ZRoy626]

Matt's screams are too awesome.

[hyperdrummingskater]

you can really hear the drums and bass its so awesome. that bass makes me cum.

[attershja]

Am I the only one thinking that this is one of the most adorable things ever to have been recorded?

Matt...screaming? XD

Still, one hell of a good version

[pinje]

it's meant to be raw reality you idiot thats the way muse play

[wibwib1]

he screams for the atmosphere, not part of the song, he isnt a screamer btw. he just does it coz he wants to, nothing to laugh about unless your thinking "haha, thats Matt Bellamy for ya, always improvising" hes awesome, and if you go see muse, and then again, the set list wud be the same, but it wud be a completly different show, everytime

[iBeMuseFan]

"I DON'T WANT YOU, AND I NEVER WILL."

Law, kickass screams Matt.

[0redthunder0]

1:38 screamo!!!!! Woah :|

[fullnelsongrip]

the lyrics are slightly different

[Hysteriaman147]

In this song he is using his Fender Aloha Stratocaster.

Even during their early years they still were musically talented beyond most bands!!! Go Muse!!!

[floccimina]

Awesome version of HM.

Still want to hear this one live myself.

[muszkamethyst]

floccimina:

as do i.

as. do. i.

[bebaslepas]

did he use a fender stratocaster??

really my fave guitar!

[RealityFly76]

No where near as good as his Manson line though...

[X3MUSEWOOO]

When starts shouting XD

Great!

[JordanSorensen]

Everything about this performance makes me happy.

[talatsmum]

mmmmm :) thats niiice..

[dottoysm]

If you wanted to know when this was recorded:

If you look behind Matt you can see a banner that says "AUSTRALIAN PARALYMPICS..." Sydney held the Olympics (and the Paralympics) in 2000. So this must be from 2000 (October or thereabouts), which is before the release of Origin of Symmetry (2001)

[XMuseXObsessiveX]

Hyper Music should have always been that way.. Omg, I love it.. I mean, I've ALWAYS loved Hyper Music, it being one of my favourite tracks, and i love Hyper Chondriac Music but this is fucking immense!

And Youtube thinks I've spelt 'favourite' wrong.. Gay Youtube..

[MuseMatt]

definately American vs. British English

[XMuseXObsessiveX]

Most certainly.. Britain all the way!! PAEDIATRIC SHOULD BE SPELT WITH AN A!!

[dragonball5000]

YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!! of fuck that was the wildes thing ever!

[ragamuffing]

this is excelent!

[TheDevilWearsPradaa]

im pretty sure chris never messes up playing bass...
