Music triviaįor the week starting 9 th July 2007, some members of and other fan-sites attempted to get Citizen Erased into the UK charts. According to Bellamy, these "phasing sounds" were removed from the remix because they prevailed over the piano, making it harder to hear. The remix also doesn't include the closing synth noises which transition into Micro Cuts, which are present on the original album track. The clean guitar during the second verse and outro is also less-filtered and sounds more clear. Flanger effects have been removed from the instruments during the outro, making the strings sound notably more present and less synthy sounding. The drums are also less boomy and tighter-sounding. The remix version contains noticeably more guitar and bass distortion, and less synth is present in the main riff. On May 19th, 2021, it was announced that Muse will be releasing a remixed and remastered version of Origin of Symmetry, titled "Origin of Symmetry (XX Anniversary RemiXX)", with Citizen Erased being the first song to be released as a single from the remixed album, on May 20th, 2021. More here Citizen Erased (XX Anniversary RemiXX) The song was played regularly during The Resistance Tour, made occasional appearances during the The 2nd Law Tour, and regularly during the Drones Tour. Matt owned both guitars at the time of recording, so it can't be said for sure which guitar(s) he used. Coincidentally, it is assumed a six-string was used to record this song, thought to be the Delorean, as a Fuzz Factory is featured in the solo, and early photos of said guitar show a bass string in place of the low E string, in order to accommodate drop A tuning. Additional drumming was added during this interlude on the aforementioned date.Ĭitizen Erased is the only song where the 7 String E Guitar is used. These returned partially by Paris-Bercy, 15 th December 2006, or possibly sometime prior on the late 2006 European tour. During the 2006 tour, the vocals of the instrumental between the final chorus and final verse were removed. The keyboard outro was introduced at least as early as the 12 th April 2001 - no recording exists between the first performance and then.Ī different riff replaced the guitar solo towards the middle of the song during the Absolution tour. The first live performance of Citizen Erased had the outro played on guitar rather than keyboard. When asked about The Globalist and Citizen Erased, Matt referred to them as "opposites": "I guess Citizen Erased is loosely about a person disappearing into nothing, declining to take control/power and choosing to fade from memory rather than embrace the chaos feeling trampled and bowing away." Live The song could also be a reference to Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four in which citizens are erased and lies control society. Because it was so heavy for so long we decided to add another song on to the end of it." I then applied the chord structure that I already had and it suddenly became a full-on metal track out of nowhere. It was written around a drum beat that Dominic Howard composed, matt said: "On Citizen Erased, Dom came in one day with this funky James Brown beat and Chris just started playing along. I don't really have the answers and I have to respond on the knowledge I have obtained so far, but the problem is that it gets printed, and something else has come along that's made you completely disagree with what you said". I spend more time than most people being asked about purpose, and it's a strange feeling. Matthew Bellamy: "It's an expression of what it feels like to be questioned.
