Muse

Title: The Resistance

Release Date: 14th September

Muse have confirmed the release date for their fifth album 'The Resistance' which will come out on 14th September on Warners. The band are currently adding finishing touches to the album which they have self-produced in Italy and is currently being mixed by Mark 'Spike' Stent (Massive Attack, U2, Oasis).

The band sold out all 85,000 tickets for their November UK tour in under half an hour when they went on sale last week. The UK leg will kick off at the Sheffield Arena on November 4th and finish with two nights at London's 02 Arena.

It goes without saying that fans can expect an ambitious and powerful show from these three friends from Teignmouth in Devon; they were the first band to play the newly built Wembley Stadium back in 2007. The 140,000 lucky fans in attendance were treated to the band rising from the middle of the venue, floating acrobatics, giant exploding balloons and of course, an unbelievably spectacular set from one of the most ambitious live acts in the world today. The Guardian's reviewer was moved to comment, "Few are more suited than MUSE to take on what Pele described as the cathedral of football" in a 5/5 review.
