MUSE has released the first official single , “Dead Inside” off their upcoming album and the song is premiering on radio stations across the globe.
Says lead singer Matt Bellamy, “This is where the story of the album begins, where the protagonist loses hope and becomes ‘Dead Inside’, therefore vulnerable to the dark forces introduced in ‘Psycho’ and which ensue over the next few songs on the album, before eventually defecting, revolting and overcoming these dark forces later in the story.”
“Dead Inside” appears on their forthcoming studio album, Drones, which will be released June 9th by Warner Bros. Records.
