Muse have unveiled the beautiful deluxe vinyl version of their upcoming seventh album, Drones. Check it out above.
Anticipation is high for the concept-heavy album, that the band have suggested leans towards their harder rock roots.
The epic bundle is an exclusive to Muse's online store, and comes complete with tri-fold vinyl packaging, two 180g heavyweight opaque red vinyls, a CD version of the album and DVD of live performances of new tracks from their recent UK Psycho tour and studio footage, plus two exclusive litho art prints.
The two prints will be chosen at random from 10 different designs, and will be numbered debossed with the Muse logo.

"The first song is about a person that loses hope and kind of becomes vulnerable to the darker forces and drawn into military brainwashing, and then on songs after that, just sort of battling the dark forces that are trying to control our minds and everything," Bellamy saod. "Then eventually you get to songs like 'Revolt' and 'Defector' where the person fights back and really takes control of themselves, then 'Aftermath' is a kind of rekindling with love type of situation, then 'The Globalist' is just like a crazy, ten minute prog nightmare - which is about the rise and fall of a dictator."
"A lot of fans keep tweeting, asking what song is the sequel to 'Citizen Erased' - it's a song called 'The Globalist' which is basically a narrative within itself about the rise and fall of a dictator, the end of the world, World War Three and all the good stuff I like," he laughed.
