Muse are considering making a tour documentary, bassist Chris Wolstenholme has revealed.

Speaking to Australian radio station Triple J, Wolstenholme said that the Teignmouth trio are looking to Nirvana’s 1994 film ‘Live! Tonight! Sold Out!!’ for inspiration.

“We’d like to something a little bit more along the lines of a touring documentary as opposed to just a live gig this time.

“Something a little bit more like Nirvana’s ‘Live! Tonight! Sold Out!!’ I think that was one of the best tour documentaries I’ve ever watched; just life on the road and what it’s like, with obviously a bit of music here and there, and other loads of other random stuff as well.”

Muse have already released two live DVDs: 2005’s ‘Absolution Tour’ and ‘H.A.A.R.P’ in 2008.

Hadouken! singer James Smith has said that he can no longer listen to the band’s debut album.

Smith told the NME that ‘Music For An Accelerated Culture’ has been improved upon dramatically on new release ‘For The Masses’.

“I can’t listen to our first album. Partially because there’s no dynamics on it. I did listen to that album and thought we could improve so much, we could be a much better band.”

‘For The Masses’ is darker than fans may expect too, with Smith adding: “This is a radio unfriendly record maybe in the way that Leftfield’s ‘Rhythm And Stealth’ is.

“Or something like ‘Poison’ by The Prodigy. It’s a dark record, but they break through because the song is so strong. Your mum’s not going to like this record, basically.”

Finally, Roberto Mancini has quoted Oasis as he looks for inspiration ahead of Manchester City’s Carling Cup semi final second leg with rivals United.

When asked if he has a message for his team ahead of the match, Maninci said: “‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’!

“It’s a fantastic Oasis song. That is the message. It’s important that we stay calm.”

City go into the match at Old Trafford 2-1 up from the first leg.
