Claudia O Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 Chris said in a recent interview in an german mag (written-down, no audio) that the album will be out at the end of this year, at the really-latest in spring '19. So I don't think Matt said an exact date.... https://www.musikexpress.de/muse-rock-im-park-neues-album-drones-1065449/ Ps: the interview was printed today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Little Animal Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Already confirmed they are. But... back in the day they also said Dead Star and In Your World would be on Absolution. So....... there's hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentsatellite Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Of course, we're comparing DD and TC to Dead Star and IYW... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lurkinglurkerlurksagain Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I doubt they'll take them off the album. Unless Matt had a stroke of inspiration and made a concept album where those don't make sense on it (although any concept album they'd do would fit perfectly with it because us vs them / resist) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Of course, we're comparing DD and TC to Dead Star and IYW... Huh? No, i’m Making a point about the credibility of Muse’s statements in a similar situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartianSpaghettiRider Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 From Matt's IG: I think it's quite safe to assume the next single will be The Dark Side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Or one of the many songs that they haven’t even told us about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 I think it’s safe to assume it’s NOT Algorithm which is the WRONG decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartianSpaghettiRider Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) I think it’s safe to assume it’s NOT Algorithm which is the WRONG decision Nah, it would be better to release the weakest songs to let the others shine like they would deserve. I'm saying that because I think Algorithm will probably be one if the best songs on LP8. They also said The Dark Side is their favourite from the whole bunch at the moment, though... So, it could be a The Handler II in terms of quality. Or one of the many songs that they haven’t even told us about. You could be right, too. It even might be the song they've recorded just a month ago, with tribal percussions and such. Although I wouldn't deem what we see in that video loop very fitting to a track like that.

forevermusic Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I'm willing to bet the next song will be one not previously discussed in the interviews for Dig Down or Thought Contagion. Just because. Not as often as explicitly as this time around. I see, but I don't recall reading anything suggesting it. Maybe I wasn't looking in the right places, I dunno.

EveryToilet Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Not to derail the conversation but, in terms of musical style, what direction does everyone want them to take? In my experience "back-to-basics" albums tend to lack the spark of the older material, hence I think Drones might be the best we can hope for. I would personally like a more lo-fi/glammy album. Muse with a Bowie/T. Rex vibe. I think a Josh Homme or Dan Auerbach produced album could be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 It's not gonna happen any time soon, but I want an album were Muse focus more on capturing a feeling rather than a sound. I'd love for them to work on something in the same vein as these riffs/jams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EveryToilet Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 It's not gonna happen any time soon, but I want an album were Muse focus more on capturing a feeling rather than a sound. That's actually a really good point. I think a lot of their lesser songs would be a lot better if they did it out of conviction rather than just experimentation. Dead Inside and Dig Down both lean towards electronic but DI works because Matt seemed invested emotionally in the song whereas DD seemed like he wanted to just wanted to see what electronic + gospel sounded like.

Hat Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Yep. Basically why I can't connect with most of what Muse have done for the past 3 albums. It feels like "let's try this genre now!" (Well Drones is different, there it's more like "let's take this song and make it about Drones") I get back to that point at least once a year though so...sorry.

Stars & Stripes jazz/trap cover confirmed. It might be a short musical piece like Interlude or Prelude that leads into a proper song. That's the initial thought in my mind for some reason, but I doubt it mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
