Alternative rock titans Muse have unveiled their forthcoming new album 'The 2nd Law' via a YouTube trailer video today – and it looks like they've taken a bass-wobbling change in direction to, you've guessed it, dubstep.
The band, most famous for their electronically-inspired guitar and bass tracks and funky rock grooves, haven't given much away with the new video, however, if the soundtrack is anything to go by, things are about to get a lot more wobbly and bass-orientated.
The change in sound shouldn't come as too much of a surprise to fans, because bassist Christopher Wolstenholme had already revealed that the band were taking on a new style that would be "something radically different" from their older material. He also explained that the band would be "drawing a line under a certain period" with what is their sixth studio album.
The forthcoming new record, which is set for a release later this year, may not be all dubstep inspired, though Muse publicist Tom Kirk had previously revealed that the band has worked with Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Adele and Beck on the new record.
What do you think of the new style (which you can check out in the video)? Let us know in the comments section below.
