So the first official single from Muse's upcoming album The 2nd Law is finally here, after having been put back a week. And 'Madness' is, in a word, bonkers. It opens with slick, sticky synths and a vocal loop treated with the appropriate amount of auto-tuning for a 21st century pop track. It's the most minimal and straightforward track to come from the band in a long, long time, an effect compounded by Bellamy's simple lyrics about having a fight with Kate Hudson (as you do). By the time you are finally convinced that there really is such a thing as a minimal Muse song (although the Queen-esque vocal layering may have fooled you), the soundscapes return and a moving chorus kicks in. The skill of this song is in its ability to both make you laugh and become serious in the space of 4 minutes. The 2nd Law is released on 1st October.
