Revolt (Muse song)

"Revolt" is a song by the English rock band Muse from their seventh studio album, Drones (2015). It was released as the third single from the album on 4 November 2015.

Song description

In his review of the album, Gigwise's Andrew Trendell called the song a "squelchy synth-fuelled call to arms and power ballad for the space-age, somewhere between Bryan Adams, Journey and Eurovision". The NME's Mark Beaumont described the song as "a two-speed storm built on monumental riffs".

Music video

The "theatrical" video features the band "performing against a backdrop of dystopian warfare between man and drone". Shot in Prague, the band "wanted the video in black and white only using color to represent revolution". The video was made available on Apple Music, while a 'Virtual Reality' version can be viewed on vrse.com.

Reception

Reaction to the song was mixed. While NME's Mark Beaumont ranked "Revolt" among the band's "most creative songs",Consequence of Sound's Collin Brennan likened it to the "overblown theatrics of Queen". Calling it "a catchy, occasionally rousing song with a couple of neat tricks up its sleeve", he concludes that the song ultimately fails to be the "convincing call to action" it seemingly intends to be.

Revolt (TV network)

Revolt (stylized as "REVOLT") is an American music-oriented digital cable television network that is owned by Sean "Diddy" Combs. It launched on October 21, 2013.

History

As part of its arrangement to acquire a minority interest in NBCUniversal, Comcast Corporation committed to carry several minority-owned networks. The arrangement followed pressure led by Maxine Waters in congressional hearings. In April 2011, Comcast solicited proposals for minority owned networks. In February 2012, Comcast announced distribution arrangements for four networks, including Revolt. The four announced networks and six forthcoming stations are being chosen from among in excess of 100 proposals to begin airing by 2020.

Business plan

The network intends to deliver music videos, live performances, news and interviews. In a statement, Combs described the network as "the first channel created entirely from the ground up in this new era of social media." He also stated "We're building this platform for artists to reach an extraordinary number of people in a completely different way. Revolt will be live, like all great moments in television history." Combs' YouTube announcement of the network presented plans to create a network for the artists by the artists: "It's your channel to do what you want to do, how you want to do it." He further stated his intention for artists to "show your art the way you want to show your art -- uncut, raw, uncensored -- not destined by the charts and who's pop." The network is to be influenced by the dynamic interests of social networking websites. Combs' intended level of visibility on the network is unclear. Combs will partner with MTV veteran Andy Schuon.

Muse is a wearable brain sensing headband that can measure the wearers level of calm. The device measures brain activity via a series of EEG sensors, the level of activity is fed back to the user via headphones. Brain waves that correspond to a more relaxed state are represented by tweeting birds, those corresponding to higher amounts of brain activity are represented by storm sounds. Muse is worn over the ears and connects to a companion mobile app via bluetooth. The goal of Muse is to use biofeedback to train your brain, differing from a device like Thync that claims to actually alter brainwaves by wearing it.

Muse is the subject of various scientific studies, one of those at the Mayo Clinic, to understand its usefulness in supporting patients who have undergone breast cancer surgery.

Trivia and media

On the cover of the EP is a distorted and rearranged image of the band's drummer, Dominic Howard.

A slightly different image appears in the American film 12 Monkeys. Bruce Willis is seen tearing down Muse posters in Philadelphia in 1996, revealing the titular symbol spraypainted in red on the building's wall; however, the Vortex (the location of the show on the poster) is a club in London.

Song

A song is a single (and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by the human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and silence and a variety of forms that often include the repetition of sections. Written words created specifically for music or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs in a simple style that are learned informally are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers for concert performances. Songs are performed live and recorded. Songs may also appear in plays, musical theatre, stage shows of any form, and within operas.
