Description
'Supremacy' sees the band going to "absurd levels," according to Matt. Spiralling swamp blues of the track builds to a climax of orchestral hysteria as Matt orates a terrifying scene of mankind losing its supremacy over the Earth as "the seas have risen up" and energy shortages cause global desperation.[1]
According to a French magazine, Jeuxactu, the song has elements of "Kashmir" from Led Zeppelin in its guitar riff and orchestration.[2]
During the post-Madness debut interview on Radio One with Zane Lowe, Matt said the song had a "big 7-string riff."
Information
By error of Bellamy, Howard, Wolstenholme or Kirk, the name of the song was leaked by a photo on Twitter, until it was deleted.
On March 30th 2012, a rumour started on-line, spreading through most of the social networks like twitter and facebook and, naturally, most Muse forums and fan-pages. Apparently, an excerpt of Supremacy had been leaked, revealing roughly 30 seconds of the song. The vocal version can be found here [1]. On April 1st 2012, the leak was confirmed to be fake, an April Fool's Day joke organised by Facebook page Coro Happy B-Day M. [3]
Lyrics
Wake to see that true emancipation is a fantasy
The seas have risen up and overcome the brave
Greatness dies and sung and lost invisible to history Embedded spies brainwashing our children to be mean
You don't have long, I am on to you The time, it has come to destroy
Your supremacy Supremacy
Your supremacy Supremacy
Ooh Ooh
You don't have long, I am on to you The time, it has come to destroy
Your supremacy Your
Supremacy
Yeah yeah
