Drones is the upcoming seventh studio album by English alternative rock band MUSE. The album was co-produced by the band and AC/DC producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange and will be released in 8 June 2015. The album art was designed by American artist Matt Mahurin
On their previous albums The Resistance (2009) and The 2nd Law (2012), Muse experimented with orchestral and electronic music. In December 2013, Muse released a live album and film, Live at Rome Olympic Stadium; songwriter Matthew Bellamy said the band wanted the live album "to capture some of the extremes of what we've been doing since we want to go in a different direction in the future."
Muse began writing their seventh album soon after the Rome concert.
Bellamy stated that the album "should be something that really does strip away the additional things that we've experimented with on the last two albums. ... I kind of feel like it will be nice to reconnect and remind ourselves of just the basics of who we are." Answering fan questions on Twitter in September 2014, Bellamy said the album's themes include deep ecology, the empathy gap and World War 3.
In March 2015, Bellamy said:
To me, "Drones" are metaphorical psychopaths which enable psychopathic behaviour with no recourse. The world is run by Drones utilizing Drones to turn us all into Drones. This album explores the journey of a human, from their abandonment and loss of hope, to their indoctrination by the system to be a human drone, to their eventual defection from their oppressors.
