Good news Muse fans - the band are currently back in the UK and are rehearsing for something at a studio in London.
The band have been dropping hints about their 'heavier' sounding seventh record for months now, stating that they'd be taking down time to record it with the hope of having it released by next summer.
Now, Twitter user John Aiggins has shared this photo of flight cases of equipment emblazoned with Muse's logo, along with the message "Not a bad way to spend a evening working@AIRStudios@muse"

He then added that it was not for a new album, but for rehearsals:
@LeFraneele not a new album just some rehearsals sadly

The band have previously spoken about how the record will be 'rockier', 'more raw' and much more back to basics than the synth and classical-inspired sounds on their more recent albums.
Last month, frontman Matt Bellamy has taken to Twitter to answer questions from fans about the new band:
@Cylux yes, going well. We hope to have it ready for next summer.

@Tanb013 yes. It's gonna get heavy.

Not only that, but Bellamy went on to say that he and the band's friend and filmmaker Tom Kirk were going through over 15 years of footage to release online - potentially to tie in with the band's anticipated 20th anniversary:

All sorts of tape labels 'Dom in hospital/guitar hit him/bologna 2004', 'Torquay concert 2000' & my favourite 'girl pukes on bus in Turkey'

@KBee1992 we will. YouTube will be inundated soon! Just found a classic tape, labelled 'Dom wets himself in Finland'

The played a number of shows in the US and South America this year, but bassist Chris Wolstenholme told Gigwise that they had no plans to play any European festivals in 2014. Fans await news of the 20th anniversary tour they teased at last year, but the band have been quiet about any potential plans to mark the occasion.
