Costey thought the instrumental jam was too long and monotone and needed some kind of a solo. It can be heard only in the chorus after the solo and can be heard clearly using good audio equipment, or on the vocals-only track included on the Supermassive Black Hole DVD single.Īccording to Rich Costey, the solo was recorded in the very last minute during the mixing phase. In the chorus just after the guitar solo, after "dead" is sung, a very faint voice says "d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d". This vocal is provided by Dom Howard, and is the only time Dom's vocals are used during a song while playing live.

The song can be heard in a little under ten minutes into the movie.

Matt revealed at New York's Webster Hall that this song was heavily based off of The Groove, likening The Groove to an early version of Supermassive Black Hole. 'Supermassive' made me want to sing in a silly high voice and dance around." Additional information We’ve mixed a lot of things in this track, with a bit of electronica it’s different, slow, quite funny."Īlso, Matt stated that the song makes him wanna dance: "When I hear certain pieces of music it conjures it out of me. The drumbeat isn’t rocky, with Rage Against The Machine riffs underneath. We’ve added a bit of Prince and Kanye West. These groups were the first to mix R&B rhythms with alternative guitar. We’ve had some Belgian influences: Millionaire, dEUS, Evil Superstars, Soulwax etc. What I’m trying to say in a roundabout way is, that’s what women are like." īellamy: "It’s the most different to anything we’ve ever done. it’s kind of comparing a woman to the centre of the galaxy, as this gigantic black hole that you powerlessly get sucked into.
