If someone were to ask me to give a modern example of a song which really showcases the talent of a guitar player I would find it hard to believe that I would not mention this song. There is just so much going on with the guitar part in this song, as there are in all of Muse's songs. The involved instrumentation in all of Muse's songs is really why I fell in love with their music. When I listen to a Muse song I am drawn first into the catchy melody, and the guitar tracks. Then I think of the detail of these guitar parts. There are always so many things at play in a Muse song. Whether it's the intricacy of the music itself or the bands use of effects which just elevate their music in my opinion to a very high level. When asked to give an example of intricate songwriting, and talented musicians, I would find it difficult to leave out a track by Muse, and I think "Knights of Cydonia" is the perfect introduction to this band. I woudl find it hard to believe an equation where a musician listens to "Knights of Cydonia," and is not impressed. So, check out "Knights of Cydonia." Even if you are not a fan of Muse's music it is undeniable that this band is incredibly talented.
