"Animals", a fanmade video from a competition the band held in late 2012.The very first thing you'll hear in Will of the People is the title sung by a choir.
Drones appears in the lyrics of many songs throughout the album.The Resistance appears in the title and lyrics of "Resistance".Absolution appears in the title and lyrics of "Sing for Absolution".Black Holes and Revelations is a lyric in the song "Starlight".It's similar to the message of "Exogenesis", but far more cynical in its presentation. A comparison with the second law of thermodynamics is made, where Earth is an isolated system and the entropy of that system is only increasing because of humanity's self-indulgent apathy. The entire Aesop of The 2nd Law is that the rich, greedy and short-sighted elite are dooming the species to self-destruction.There can't be redemption without that commitment to do better. A major part of redemption is recognizing that yes you've done the wrong thing, but also that you can still change before it's too late. There's a lot of hope in the third part, which is titled 'Redemption'.Too bad that by the third part, mankind realizes that the reason they left Earth and they're all together in this mess is that they botched it in the first place, so chances are it'll all become a cycle unless mankind changes its disruptive ways. Good idea at first, one can think, and that's how it's believed throughout the first two parts. An Aesop: Their fifth album, The Resistance, has a three-part symphony at the end of the album entitled "Exogenesis" which speaks of mankind abandoning a post-apocalyptic, dystopian Earth in order to re-populate and spread their kind across other planets in the universe in order to keep their species alive.Live from Rome Olympic Stadium (2013, third live album).Hullabaloo Soundtrack (2002, a combination live album and B-sides collection).Origin of Symmetry (2001, though not released in the United States until 2005, see the trivia page)."Survival," a song from The 2nd Law, was adopted as the official song of the 2012 Olympics, and "Isolated System" was adopted as the theme for World War Z. Puts a whole new context to "Plug In Baby", doesn't it? Their music video for " Knights of Cydonia" has its own page, which should tell you something.įun fact: the band was originally called the Rocket Baby Dolls after a Hentai. They have been nominated for the Grammy Awards four times, and have won twice - the first being for The Resistance in 2011 and the second for Drones in 2016. They also managed a #37 hit on the Hot 100 pop chart with "Uprising", something they achieved without the help of pop radio. With regard to singles, the band has been successful in both their home country - where they've had 17 Top 40 singles - and American alternative radio, where they have ten Top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot Alternative Tracks (formerly Hot Modern Rock Tracks) chart. They have released nine studio albums thus far, with Will of the People the most recent on August 26th, 2022. This is all tied off with a penchant for the darkly theatrical, which reveals itself especially in their rather hyperoperatic live performances.
They are well-regarded for their genre-busting hybrid of musical styles, which is characterised by the incorporation of strong elements of classical music, art rock, electronic music, metal, jazz and flamenco, with a defiantly-experimental bent.
Muse is an English alternative/ progressive rock band formed in 1994 by vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Matthew Bellamy, bassist Christopher Wolstenholme, and drummer Dominic Howard.
