Earlier this year, Muse singer and guitarist Matt Bellamy described Muse’s ninth album Will of the People as their “best” record yet.

“We’ve always tried to think outside the box,” Bellamy told Apple Music 1. “We’ve never been one particular genre.

“This album goes from metal all the way to pop to my first version to an Adele song… a lot of electronica. It’s like a full…We produced it ourselves. We were analysing everything we’ve done to date. The last song on the album is called ‘We Are Fucking Fucked’. I’m really happy and proud of it. I genuinely think it’s our best album.”

Bellamy also revealed that he let drummer Dominic Howard “take the lead a little bit” on the project.

“That’s why this album’s taken two years. Every decision takes like a week for him to come back to us. Normally I just rush everything. With him he’s really slow, takes his time with every decision. I allowed him to make a lot of decisions about what was good and what wasn’t,” he added.

Elsewhere, Rolling Stone UK said of Nova Twins’ second album, Supernova, which was released last year: “Nova Twins channel their righteous fury into an album that pairs stadium-sized anthems with uncompromising and timely lyrics.”
