On Friday, August 26, Muse released their latest album Will Of The People, a ten track album that was entirely self-produced. The album released is accompanied by the release of a music video for the song “You Make Me Feel Like It’s Halloween,” directed by Tom Teller. The video features visual references to many classic horror films, including ‘The Shining’, ‘Friday The 13th’, ‘Scream’, ‘It’, ‘Poltergeist’, ‘Carrie’ and more. The song’s pulsating electro-rock and ominous synth sounds are perfectly complemented by the spooky video.
The album was previewed by “Won’t Stand Down,” “Compliance,” the title track “Will Of The People” and “Kill Or Be Killed.” The song “Liberation” echoes glam rock in the age of disinformation, while “Verona” has an innocence and purity to nostalgic electronic textures. While “Ghosts (How Can I Move On)” is a haunting piano ballad, the band’s frenetic energy is palpable with the rush of “Euphoria.” The final track, “We Are Fucking Fucked,” closes the album with loud/quiet/loud dynamics and a burst of insanity.
