Comments on: Mute Math Moves Mountains….. http://www.kingsofar.com/2007/09/21/mute-math-moves-mountains/ Fri, 05 Dec 2008 10:22:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: Lindsey http://www.kingsofar.com/2007/09/21/mute-math-moves-mountains/#comment-79654 Lindsey Tue, 25 Sep 2007 19:03:16 +0000 http://www.kingsofar.com/2007/09/21/mute-math-moves-mountains/#comment-79654 In response to Jalan's post above... they actually already performed this song live on Jimmy Kimmel in the normal performance style. For their second appearance they decided to switch it up and do something that's never been done before. They didn't NEED to lip sync, they really can do it all :) I really hope this band breaks... one of the best live bands I've seen in a long time. Here is the video of their first performance on Kimmel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCJUokCtiqE Make sure you watch until the end when they break the lights and subsequently the keytar...

As KOAR often suggests, we need rock stars! If you're a rock band taping before a live audience, then captivate the audience with a genuine, energetic LIVE performance. Isn't that the point of going on these sort of shows? From what I've seen and heard, MM has an incredible live show, so instead of actually tearing it up in front of an audience of millions, you lip-synch through your music video? Give that same performance LIVE, not in reverse, and you've impressed a whole helluva lot more people, IMHO. It was a great idea for their video, but not so much for their 'live' performance. Just my two cents...

They've been building an underground fanbase for years. They have worked hard and it's good that people are starting to recognize them. They have also been playing sold out club dates for years, now.

Although, I've heard it far too many times from playing the videogame ATV Offroad Fury 4 for PS2. Yes their music is already in a videogame. Their other songs are pretty good. You think they would've taken the audio from a concert or studio performance for the kimmel "performance" to go with all the hard work in the choreography? Nope just some dubbed audience noise.

Its about time a new band pushes the envelope. Music is beat today, but I am going to pick up this record. Thanks for introducing me to this band. Now this is creative.

It comes down to personal preference. And Yes, both bands have room for growth. I love them both. .......Amanda I agree Dave, i think Muse and Mute Math are completely different.

Different style but they could have the same career. Neither band are at their peak yet. I wouldn’t say they’re a lot better than Muse. Different style but they could have the same career.
