Muse unveil new single ‘The Dark Side’ and announce new album ‘Simulation Theory’

The band go sci-fi once again

Muse have marked their return with new single ‘The Dark Side’ as well as announcing new album ‘Simulation Theory‘. Check out the video and tracklist below.

Following on from recent singles ‘Dig Down‘, ‘Thought Contagion‘, and ‘Something Human‘, the new track follows an operatic rock route more traditional of the band – albeit with an electro-pop edge.

It also comes complete with a sci-fi video, seemingly the sequel to ‘Something Human’ as frontman Bellamy swerves his way around a futuristic dystopian landscape.

Meanwhile, speaking to NME earlier this year, Muse spoke about their plans to “blow people’s minds” with their next big tour.

“We’re going to come up with something that no one’s ever seen before. We’re always interested in the latest technology and what’s cutting edge, so we’re always thinking of the new thing that nobody’s ever used before in a concert. And we found something and we’re going to use that.”
