One of England’s biggest rock bands, Muse, have announced details of their new album, dropping a sneak preview on Instagram.

The band have been posting photos and videos from the studio across their social media sites, documenting the recording process. They’ve now posted an Instagram video showing a screen displaying the words “Artist: Muse. Album:Drones”. So it’s safe to say that Muse’s seventh studio album will be called Drones.

In typical Muse fashion, frontman Matt Bellamy saidin an interview with fans that the themes of the album include “deep ecology, the empathy gap, and world war 3”. He also hinted that there would be a ‘sequel’ to fan-favourite track ‘Citizen Erased’.
