Revision as of 01:10, 17 December 2011
This page will serve as a running commentary on Muse's next major release.
Information
In an NME interview, Chris said "We'll definitely start working on a new album next year"[1] He went on to say "I think we'll definitely take some time off after this touring period because it's something we've never done. I think the most time we've had off is about six weeks in the last 12 years, so we're due a break." In another NME interview, Matt said that he was thinking about writing a more personal music project for their next album. "I sense that that's going to lead to a writing project that will be more personal, rather than talking about grand political concerns. That itself might lead to material that's more suitable for smaller venues."
Recording place
Matt told Xfm: "We've actually never made a full album in London, we've made bits here occasionally." He added: "It would be nice to be based in the same place so we can go out and so we can make an album together and also socialise together at the same time." He also said: "It also means we can make the album over a longer period of time without having to pressurise it all in to a three week studio session, you can spread it out."[2] On November 16th 2011 Muse posted pics from Air Recording Studios, London.
Influences
In a interview with Absolute Radio, Matt mentioned the new album may have influences from Justice and DIOYY, and that he was very into the 'hard electronica' sound at the moment. [3]
New songs
Near the beginning of 2010 Muse indicated they had been working on potentially two new songs, one of which was ready for recording. One was mentioned by Dom in an interview with regard to Muse providing new music for the 2012 Olympic games.[4] Dom mentioned a "love song" the band had written originally intended for the Twilight Saga: Eclipse soundtrack, stating that the band "were ready to record" in Australia during the Big Day Out tour. This turned out to be Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) [5] It is unclear whether this song is separate from that which was mentioned in regard to the 2012 Olympics.
Later,when he was asked whether fatherhood was on his mind, he told MTV: "Yeah, I'm definitely going to bring out the Vibraphone, a lullaby, things like that. I'll definitely get a lullaby on there." [6]
During the NME Awards 2011, Matt and Dom stated that there would be a lot of chords on the album and that Matt already had many ideas flowing through his head, including one song which Dom said sounded very cool already.
Back to the Studio
Chris said that, muse will back to the studio by September in 2011, after Reading and Leeds festivals.
By October and November muse started to recording their sixth album.
