Muse - Won't Stand Down

[SholasBoy]

No.56 in the end, their highest position since "Psycho" made no.55 in 2015. They are one of few rock bands from their era that can still chart singles though consistently.

I really enjoyed it. Seems they are being inspired by the bands that they inspired before like Sleep Token and Haken. Muse going to modern metal is all that i need now.

[maroon]

A great comeback. This is the Muse I missed for a long time!

[SholasBoy]

Not that it means much to chart performance these days, but this song has been number one on iTunes all day.

[heppolo]

the verse drum rhythm and singing pattern is very Imagine Dragons which super annoyed me, while the chorus is ok.

[spiritboy]

Very noisy indeed. They should go back to Pop/Rock

[SholasBoy]

This is absolutely excellent. I was invested from this first few big crunchy notes. It’s eerie and creepy and loud and expensive sounding. Actually get a Marilyn Manson vibe, only with Matt Belamys range giving it more light and shade. I’m here for it.

[GreekGeek]

^I completely agree with this!

[Tansike]

I really like this - very Rock which really needs a true revival on the charts IMO!

[Thriller]

Gets quite noisy at the end doesn’t it I like it though!

The new song and mv is finally here!
At first, the mv seems like a collab between Muse and Daft Punk.

[Thriller]

Definitely sounds heavier than their output from the past 15 years, more in line with their earlier stuff maybe, but at least it still appears to have a tune!

[SholasBoy]

Wow, they are finally moving away from their electro-pop influences then. I can't wait, Must always deliver, even if metal is not my usual taste.

Muse will release this brand new single on Thursday, January 13th. Rumor has it, WSD will be a heavy metal influenced track.
This is a part of the song that Matt previewed on Instagram two weeks ago:
