Fallen London Travel Guide:

Sisterhood’s Convent on Abbey Rock

A black spit of an island, far from anywhere anyone would want to go. And that's how the Sisterhood likes it. Here stands their fortress-convent. There are bear-traps that look friendlier than this.

Muse at Abbey Road Studios

I went to Abbey Road to see the famous Abbey Road studios today. Yes, I walked the Beatles crosswalk too ;) But read on!

I found a bit of Muse history there, for those interested!

Part of Origin of Symmetry was recorded down at Abbey Road, after all! Specifically in Studio 2.

Muse started writing the album whilst on tour for Showbiz in 2000, recording parts of it (high on mushrooms) with Dave Bottrill at Ridge Farm Studios in Surrey. These ended up almost becoming demos, as when the band began mixing them with John Cornfield after the tour was over, they weren’t satisfied with the mixes and ended up having to lay them down them again.

That’s when the group trouped down to London to rerecord the few songs they had at the time, New Born, Plug In Baby, Bliss and Darkshines. They also wrote and recorded the rest of the album, in Studio 2, which is Abbey Road’s most famous recording room. It wasn’t Muse’s first time at Abbey Road: they’d done a filmed live set there in 1999.

The album was rerecorded at Abbey Road in full in 2000 with John Leckie, who worked with Muse on Showbiz as well.

Muse at Abbey Road Studios for Origin of Symmetry in 2000.

Muse of course revisited the studio and master mixes of Origin of Symmetry in 2021 for the 20th anniversary RemiXXes, and would go on to do two more sessions there: a second in June 2001, and the more famous 2008 sessions for Channel 4 in the UK.

2008.

2021: remiXXed, revisited, reminisced on.

Muse also tracked drums for songs on Will Of The People at Abbey Road in Studio 3, and here is Matt and his Manson sitting on the doorstep outside the studios.

They have a little badge honouring Muse as one of the famous artists to have recorded at Abbey Road. Made my little Muser heart swell with pride to see it :’) ❤️
