With their 2013 album “Live at Rome Olympic stadium” behind them, English rock band Muse quickly began writing for what would be their 7th LP, “Drones”, the album that’s secured their fifth UK number 1. Muse focused on returning to their roots with “Drones”. Bellamy stated that “The album should be something that really strips away the additional things we’ve experimented on with the last two albums.” The orchestral and electronic sounds that were present in their 2009 album “The resistance” and “the 2nd Law” from 2012 are most definitely absent, apart from in songs such as “dead inside” and “mercy”.
Muse – Drones Review
Single Review – Muse – Psycho
The Devonshire alt-rock big hitters that are Muse have announced a new album Drones for June 8th and with it comes the release of an initial track from it entitled ‘Psycho’. It’s very much a slight departure from the more pristine and cleaner rock of the bands last material and is a more rough and loose affair with the pounding, fuzzy guitars with the marching beat of the drums. These are met with screams from Matt Bellamy or with the vocal harmonisation of the group over the heavy instrumentals. It’s not a ground breaking track from Muse in any sense, but will be welcomed by hardened Muse fans.
