Muse have shared yet another taster of what to expect from their upcoming new album, Drones - in the form of another hard rock riff. Check it out below. 

The band, who launched their Instagram page just last year, have been using the social media site to share images and footage of progress on their seventh album while hard at work in the studio in Canada and Italy. 

After weeks of teaser images of parts being recorded and confirming that the LP will be titled Drones, the band have now uploaded a short clip of frontman Matt Bellamy laying down a guitar riff. In keeping with their promise that the album will be 'heavier' and more rock-based than their past couple of records, the riff appears to be in the more metallic keeping of tracks like 'Assassin', and slightly resembles the guitar part of 'Butterflies and Hurricanes'.

Sharp-eared Musers have commented on its similarity to 'Helsinki Jam' - roadtested as an instrumental on recent tours, commonplace for the shaping of some of Muse's biggest tracks. 

While you're here, check out the other footage that they've shared from the studio so far:
