Muse have released an animated video for their track Aftermath.
Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme and Dominic Howard worked with Japanese director Tekken on the short. Tekken previously collaborated with the trio on promos for Follow Me and Exogenesis: Symphony Part 3 (Redemption).
Aftermath appeared on the band’s 2015 album Drones. And months after its 2015 summer release, Howard revealed they’d already started thinking of the follow-up.
He said: “We’ve talked about it – but we haven’t really talked about when or where.
“I just know we need to do something really different to anything we’ve done before. It’s time to kind of lose our minds a little bit more in the studio, and delve into areas of music that we’re not used to or comfortable with.”
Muse are currently on tour across Europe, with their next stop scheduled in Milan this weekend where they’ll play six nights at the city’s Mediolarum Forum.
