Analysis and Explanation

Futurism was given its live debut at Reading Festival 2000 alongside Bliss, though unlike Bliss, Futurism was not performed at any further gigs during the Origin of Symmetry Tour, only appearing in the form of a by-request riff at the BBC Re:Covered broadcast in 2002. Matt was once quoted saying that it didn't make the album because it was a hard song to perform live.

A whole 13 years later, the song was given a surprise outing at the Tokyo Zepp 2013 gig and has continued to make regular appearances at rarity gigs. Though the song has been performed an incredibly few amount of times, it seems Muse are keen to play it live whenever given the opportunity to place rarities into the setlist, with the song appearing during the Psycho UK Tour in 2015, Montreux Jazz Festival in 2016 and at the 2017 Shepards Bush Empire by request show. The song was also a candidate at the 2018 Paris Cigale by request show though the fans voted to hear Fury instead.

The song will likely continue to make rare appearances for many years to come and it was played partially as part of the 'Houston Jam' during the Simulation Theory World Tour in 2019.
