I believe the brand of guitars Matt Bellamy uses is called Manson guitars and he now owns the company.

He also has (basically) a pedal built into a lot of his guitars, which was pretty innovative. Some even have touch controls that change the pitch.

@@GT.Bugger probably the only major guitarist who never "sold out" and stuck his name on a signature guitar that people could buy I think recently Manson have started making mass produced guitars but they no where near match the Matt Belamy spec.

Radiohead were well established when Muse emerged (started out 10 years earlier). In the early days Matt Bellamy was sometimes accused of copying Thom Yorke’s vocal style. He didn’t.

if you can accuse him copying anyone (you cant really) then its Jeff Buckley, per his own words Edit: he didnt say he copied him, but was massively inspired by him, and he was who gave him courage to sing at all.

If I'm not mistaken, Muse formed in 1994. Nobody payed them any attention until 1999.

the link with Radiohead was they both had the same Producer in the early days.

chills upon my goosebumps. primal screaming over a melody that transcends genre. I love this Band dangerously. My heartbeat is never less than pounding listening to them.

The 7 String is a Manson E, flamed Sycamore body, Kent Armstrong pickups. Matt bought it 2nd hand. Manson then came out with the CE which is based on the original but with flamed Maple body, MBK Pickups, and the dot inlays a spaced further apart which Matt uses mostly out of the two versions.

Great reaction guys thanks You definitely get a progressive vibe with Muse, Matt is a genius! Personally I prefer their first 4 albums. Absolution and Origins of Symmetry are all killer no filler. Stockholm Syndrome from Glastonbury 2004 is incredible, as is Butterflies and Hurrucanes from Wembley. They always put on such an incredible show live for a 3 piece guys

Most of Matt Bellamy’s guitars are Mason brand.... including that 7 string. Chris(bassist) in that era used a lot of Rapture basses by a brand called Pedulla. He also used Fender pbass Excalibur, but hes fender go to is the jazz bass. In the early days of Knights of Cydonia he used a Rickenbacker 4001. From 2010 or something like that he started using Status basses( the ones with lights in the fretboard). Theres a variations of a Status that is a double neck, he uses that live for a song called Madness. The bass has a Status in the bottom and a Kitara digital pad in the upper. You should check the song live to see it in action.

This is when Muse were very innovative. One can say that it is basically a britpop / alternative rock band, but man, some of their songs have really hardcore riffs and they tended to play it heavy live too. I kinda credit Muse for inventing some parts of what has since become the new progressive metal scene, where pretty choruses and melodies mix with brutality and noise. The most brutal riff would be in Stockholm Syndrome. Suggest to check out Stockholm Syndrome from Glastonbury 2004. IMO their best show.

@@poodook its the perfect example of everything great about muse, prog rock mixed with classical, the heavy guitar riffs leading into more subtle moments that show the range in Matts voice snd then it ends with that piano solo, its always been my favourite and is top of most muse fans list

Muse filled the void when Radiohead went experimental electronic/guitar rock. Also Muse filled a prog rock void that was dying to be filled

Hullabaloo is the name of the live setlist album, the word Hullabaloo means uproar, or commotion.

I got to see Radiohead in a small pub in Brighton England 1992...been around a bit longer than Muse. Brian May from Queen really loves them and says they remind him of a latter day Queen that don’t take themselves to seriously! Great band, probably the best coming out of UK right now..Matt is a major shareholder in Manson Guitars, (not overall owner as some people think) and the best possible marketing tool for the brand. Fun fact, Dany from The Warning is sponsored by Manson and plays the MA Evo, in dry satin black. Loaded with an internal Fuzz Factory and Sustainiac system, it’s a beast of a guitar. Can be seen in action on their songs The End/Queen of The Murder Scene etc.

There's quite a bit of an evolution line from Queen to Radiohead to Muse, lol. You can see the influence from one to another, even if Radiohead are still going.

genius singing and play guitar at the same time so fucking hard amazing guy

Guitar is a Manson. It’s a small bespoke guitar maker in Devon England. All Matts guitars are Manson guitars. I think he even bought the company. They are all made custom for Matt. With unique built in things like a Kaoss Pad into the guitar body.

Matt Bellamy only plays custom made Manson Guitars, each one is hand made for him personally based on what he asks for (one he simply said I want it glittery). Interestingly when asked about it once he explained "When you pick up a fender you play like Hendrix, A les Paul you play like Jimmy Page, I always wanted to play like me so I had a guitar made for me.

Cool video! You really should react to Knights of Cydonia and Time is Running Out (both live).

jb is right i was always tinking about tom yorke when i hear matt sing and radiohead was ninetees band muse came ten years later

You two are absolutely bloody fantastic reactioners.you have new fans in Britain 👍🇬🇧🤗💎💎💎💎

This was an early Manson guitar, so it would likely have had a pair of Bare Knuckle 'Nail bomber' pickups and a Zvex fuzz factory built in, think he used to use Orange amps but not sure for this era. I also think Muse were once a Radiohead tribute band? But don't mention it to the purer of Muse fans 😂. Both great bands, but Muse have definitely differentiated themselves since.

Some suggestions for you: Stockholm Syndrome either Wembley 2007 or glastonbury 2004 Showbiz le Zenith 2001 Knights of Cydonia Royal Albert Hall 2008 The small print Earls Court 2004 Take a Bow Wembley 2007 Bliss Le zenith 2001 Futurism Tokyo zepp 2013 Fury Wiltern theatre 2004

Each one of Muse's albums has a theme that represent different ways the world will end. "Citizen Erased" is about the making of a future dictator. Fast forward to 2015 and "The Globalist" is the sequel to "Citizen Erased" and it's about the dictator finishing her domination of Earth. Check out " The Globalist", Live at Glastonbury 2016. Let me know what ya think. Love the channel, guys. Peace.

Ow Yeah, MICRO CUTS

Early 2000’s muse will remain undefeated

Matt was born with a small larrynx. That might be why they were so popular in Italy.

React to Stockholm Syndrome please!

Check out Stockholm Syndrome, and Assassin live at Mayan 2015! :)

I saw Muse a few yrs ago in NC. A big thunderstorm came thru after 30 secs to mars opened, delayed the show, like 75% of the crowd left. We stayed and jumped the fence to the good GA spots. They kill it live

Don't mention the R.. word haha they were influenced a little by Radiohead but more Rage and Smashing Pumpkins.. Muse did come a little later, forming in school in 96' first album came out in 2000. This show which was released on DVD and I'm pretty sure you can still get it, and was filmed in the Zenith a club in France, Muse are adored in France, no surprise really with their eclectic sound.

Madness a great Muse track you will both love it

watch Supremacy, The Handler, Reapers, Psycho, Defector, Darkshines, Supermassive Black Hole, Knight of Cydonia, Hysteria, Plug In Baby, New Born, Bliss, Unintended (for slow listening)

Micro Cuts is what I put on when I want to show people how weird and wild Muse can get.

Some people just can't stop talking. The most inane reactionary dross on youtube right here folks.

Nice videos! Glad you picked this, the era when they were so wild and full of energy, and matt voice is in his prime. Next should be: Stockholm syndrom, hysteria, new born (any of 2004).

Poor LVT, she couldn't see Matt's eyeballs because his nostrils were too big. 😒

Been a fan of Muse since 1999...but "Hullabaloo" was their first live CD/DVD collection from around 2003-4 if my !@#%ing memory serves correct,and its worth watching the whole thing. But Matt Bellamy really should be ranked up there with some of the so-called guitar greats,he's pretty much a virtuoso on guitar and piano,plus I don't need to mention his vocal histrionics. Great call on the Radiohead comparison,but I give the edge to Muse any day. Most of the music from this "Hullabaloo" offering was from their first 2 albums,and singles,which is possibly why it feels like it has a more progressive harder edge,and a smaller venue makes it a bit more personal. Again, not digging the flopped videos,but you guys gotta do what ya gotta do,just to stay one step ahead of !@#%ing You Tube or record labels. I'm glad it wasn't only The Warning videos that were getting this treatment (though I would've thought they'd would be one of the few acts you could get away with). Anyhoo more Muse and word soup... !@#% yes !

Micro Cuts in particular fucking destroyed Matt's vocal chords. He really can't hit the high notes he used to be able to, and when you watch performances like this, it's little wonder why. And Citizen Erased is often considered Muse's best song. While I disagree on it being the #1 song they've ever made, it's pretty much a masterpiece.

PLEASE REACT TO SHOWBIZ!!!!

you don’t talk u JUST DONT when Matt screamed in the second part waste of my time clicking the video and writing this down

Good reaction video but I feel there was too much talking...especially during end of Citizen Erased. You lost the vibe.

Too much talking!😉

You ruined the video with too much talking, if your wanting to ask us questions about which instruments their using ok, we'll give you the answers but only if we can have the opportunity to hear the MUSE record first!
