SO I wasn't too impressed at first when I heard the album for the firs time but after spinning it 3 times it's already starting to grow on me. Definitely better than Simulation Theory and you can hear they are having a blast. For the moment, Ghost is the weakest track for me and I don't think that will change. WAFF is really refreshing and it really reminds of the older Muse; I think there's really something for everyone in this album, "The Will of the People" makes sense as people got what they wanted. I'm excited to spend hours with this album and see how it grows.

Nothing on youtube, nothing on twitter, nothing on Reddit, nothing on discord and no new activity on last.fm for the new tracks. But to be honest, if I had the chance to get my hands on an early copy myself, I don't even know how I would leak it: I don't have a cd player anymore and my record player doesn't have a usb port to copy music in mp3 format.

Some shops in the US have already sold some copies but some don't want to sell them or say they are already out of stock. It can leak any time now...

I totally agree with you; he doesn't use his voice as before and that's a real shame. Last time I was here was 10 years ago I think, I must say I'm quite excited by the new album and that makes me want to connect with the Muse community again. It's nice to be experiencing the excitement for an upcoming album, I haven't felt this for ages! I'm not expecting to hear the old Muse that I completely adored but I'm hoping for some good vibes with this new album; so far I'm liking the new songs 🙂
