As fans wait eagerly for Muse’s latest record “Drones” to hit stores on June 9th;\u00a0 vocalist Matt Bellamy and his band-mates have been doing the rounds as of late, unveiling precious details involving the band’s eagerly awaited new album.<\/p>\n
In a recent interview with Q Magazine <\/a>about the band’s latest single ‘Dead Inside’, Bellamy revealed that songs found within “Drones” will be very personal, and that there is not a lot of love to be found on the new record:<\/p>\n \u201cI went very internal, very into my paranoias, weird feelings and life experiences. It\u2019s quite personal,\u201d<\/em> Matt explained, while describing the lyrics to Dead Inside<\/strong> as being about “a relationship ending and a person becoming dead inside themselves”.<\/em><\/p>\n Bellamy has gone on in the past to explain that the album’s title is not a direct political commentary on the modern issue of Drone warfare, but instead a metaphor on the current state of human empathy. Speaking to Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1 last month<\/a>, he described the album as “a modern metaphor for what it is to lose empathy.” He continued: “I think that through modern technology, and obviously through drone warfare in particular, it\u2019s possible to actually do quite horrific things by remote control, at a great distance, without actually feeling any of the consequences, or even feeling responsible in some way.”<\/p>\n “The next step in drones is gonna be autonomous drones, which actually make \u2018kill\u2019 decisions themselves, where no humans are involved.”<\/p>\n Listen to ‘Dead Inside’<\/strong> Below:<\/p>\n
