Album Description
Available in:
The 2nd Law è il sesto album in studio del gruppo musicale britannico Muse, pubblicato il 1º ottobre 2012 dalla Warner Bros. Records.
Si tratta del primo album del gruppo a presentare il logo della Parental Advisory, a causa della volgarità contenute nel testo di Panic Station. L'album inoltre risultò essere il 20° più venduto del 2012 in Italia.
La copertina di The 2nd Law, tratta dall'Human Connectome Project, rappresenta la mappa dei percorsi del cervello umano, "monitorando i circuiti nelle nostre teste e come elaboriamo le informazioni con colori brillanti al neon".
In un'intervista, il gruppo affermò che album incorpora elementi provenienti dal rock sinfonico, dubstep e dal synth pop. Dominic Howard svelò inoltre che Skrillex è stato un punto di riferimento per la composizione di The 2nd Law: Unsustainable, la quale è stata inserita in piccola parte nel trailer relativo all'album. Nel disco sono presenti sonorità che ricordano Queen, U2, INXS e Led Zeppelin.
Per la prima volta nella carriera del gruppo anche il bassista Chris Wolstenholme ha composto alcuni brani, Save Me e Liquid State, che parlano della sua battaglia contro l'alcolismo. In entrambe le canzoni, Wolstenholme è la voce principale.
User Album Review
One of the most remarkable characteristics regarding Muse, themselves an entirely remarkable band, is the sheer speed at which many of their songs are recognised as being classic compositions of the grandest order. A track like 2006’s exquisitely bonkers Knights of Cydonia could only have been of their making. So it comes as no surprise that The 2nd Law takes no time at all to make its presence felt.
What is surprising, though, is that the band that so often would be Queen begins like Led Zeppelin. The swaggering Kashmir-style six-shooter riff of Supremacy is not only the sonic equivalent of a band bursting through the doors of a saloon bar and stopping the clientele dead; it also affirms that Matt Bellamy is a master of the guitar in the order of Metallica’s James Hetfield or AC/DC’s Malcolm Young.
The array of musical styles on show across The 2nd Law means that, like many of this band’s past albums, it doesn’t entirely coalesce into a seamless collection of songs. Panic Station borrows from both Queen’s Another One Bites the Dust and Michael Jackson’s Thriller, without ever attaining the majesty of either tune. But when this album works, it works well.
Survival, an official song of the 2012 Olympic Games, rides emphatic thumps, whereas Liquid State, one of two tracks penned by bassist Chris Wolstenholme, adopts a fluid groove. Closer The 2nd Law: Isolated System manages to unsettle the listener by use of a searching piano motif, reminiscent of Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells, famously heard in The Exorcist.
This may be Muse’s sixth studio album, but throughout the group present themselves in any guise they please. Where they go from here is anyone’s guess. But as it stands, this is a more than satisfying exploration into the unknown and more.
