Description
Trumpets inflating like lifeboats and Exorcist piano pulses tinkling goodbye to the globe. "It's the noise of humanity on a tiny planet in the middle of nothing," says Matt. "Hanging around space would be so peaceful and quiet and suddenly you come to this little blip that's f-----g chaos! I see it as drifting away from the planet and going into the peacefulness of what actually is gonna happen at the end of it all, which is nothingness."[1]
The song includes no vocals, the main part is the piano and it ends with the voice of a woman in a loop. [2]
Information
The song's name was unknown until the 13th July 2012, the day that Muse tweeted the same picture with Dom and the leaked names, but with the working titles replaced by the new album tracking list. It was unknown if the song was related to one of the titles on the old, unedited image, but in the "The 2nd Law - Making Of", the score board reveals that "Isolated System" was recorded under the name "The Unknown".
On 21st September 2012, Muse revealed the Social Connectome Project, which uses social networks to create a map similar to the album art. With every 5000 members of the project, an additional 30-second preview of Isolated System is released.
Lyrics
In an isolated system, entropy can only increase
(Random radio and TV transmissions broadcast on March 29th 2012 between 18:48 and 19:10)
In an isolated system, entropy can only increase
In an isolated system In an isolated system (entropy) Isolated system (Entropy can only increase) Isolated system Isolated Isolated (system) Isolated Isolated (system) Isolated (entropy) Isolated Isolated Isolated
