Do not want. After the last album and this preview I think I'm going to have to officially move on.

Not happy about the dubstep portion. I love Muse so I will reserve final judgment for the actual album. Also slightly disappointed the titular 2nd law is of thermodynamics and not robotics.

I'll give the new album a listen. No matter what they do with the albums, these guys are still a kick-ass live band.

Oh man, to think this was my favorite band at one time and I even liked Resistance mostly.

What a damn shame if this is the direction they've chosen. Dubstep is garbage.

One of my favorite bands, and I've loved every single album. I trust them, and I'm excited for September and a new tour.

"Fuck Bellamy"? Jesus, you haven't even heard the album yet. Goddamn. Chill out.

The Resistance aged horribly for me, so I'll take anything that goes in a different direction. If they can make the whole album gritty, count me in. I hope the orchestral theme is prevalent too, and wasnt just for the trailer

Brostep in a Muse album? That sounded fucking terrible. Why are they imitating Skrillex? I thought this was a joke trailer, but holy shit if that is their future sound, not gonna bother listening.

Well, I was excited. I'll probably buy the album if the full singles are good, but that dubstep wasn't promising. Somebody else here called it equivalents to RATM's mosh riffs, and that's probably true but I'd take Bellamy's Morello-lite riffs over dubstep riffs any day.

But "You are unsustainable" is an awfully vacuous chorus. They should really drop his store-bought rebel politics from their music, or at least have something better than "He's the man, we're the people, we kill the man."

If you want to write off an entire album based on a two-minute, context-less clip, be my guest. But I'm still looking forward to it.

I'm not writing off the entire album, I'm just saying fuck you to Bellamy, cause even if the rest of the album is somehow amazing, that dubstep is unforgivable.

Anyway I'm willing to bet my balls the album will be shit, if they thought this trailer is a good way to hype it up.

I've loved Muse since Muscle Museum and I'll continue to love them. I don't listen to dubstep but I do appreciate how abrasive and annoying it is. I like that the dubstep section does sound like an actual band and not 100% electronic.

i don't actually dislike dubstep but when i think of muse i don't associate them with skrillex. i'm certainly interested to hear what they've come up with, but after the resistance i'm cautious.

Black Holes & Revelations has many of the best songs of Muse. This is a fact. And United States of Eurasia & Exogenesis are two of the best things Muse has ever done.

I hope they're pulling our legs and this isn't an indication of what's to come. Though after The Resistance, I don't know what to believe anymore.

Bellamy used his guitar to replicate the wubs. Leave the dubstep and the showmanship for live performances please. Or better yet, leave dubstep out completely.

Muse was the first band that I was a huge fan of back in high school. I pretty much moved on from them after I discovered Radiohead though. I got on a nostalgic Muse kick for a bit recently though and remembered why I did like them. With each new album though I'm losing more and more faith in the band, while Radiohead has been the opposite. I think at this point Muse has fell into their mainstream niche and are going to stay there.

They are awesome live though.

I want to believe that it's a joke, like 'hey, we made that so you believe that we were making a dubstep album, but instead we're gonna make yout brain explode with an LP similar to Origin of Symmetry'. I hope that's the real meaning of the trailer.

Actually it's not really hard to emulate those sounds on an electric guitar using effects; it's more a matter of price than ability. He also has that synth pad embedded into one of his guitar IIRC. If he's using that he's not actually "playing" guitar to make those sounds.
