Description
NME described 'Supremacy' as spiralling swamp blues building up to a climax of orchestral hysteria as Matt "orates a terrifying scene of mankind losing it's supremacy over the Earth and the energy shortages causing global desperation".
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. [1]
A picture of the Supremacy sheet paper leaked and was played by "DarnuTube" on YouTube.[2] It appears that the notes are the same that in the first part on the 2nd law trailer. So, we can suppose that the first part of the trailer is actually Supremacy. See also Supremacy (tablature) for the tab of this part. [2].
