Muse
While most of the upcoming musical hype of this year’s Olympics seem geared towards Blur‘s closing ceremony celebration performance in Hyde Park, it’s arena-rock trio Muse that has wound up snagging the official song of the Games. Set to make its radio premiere tonight and made available to purchase on iTunes, the entitled track “Survival” will be played throughout the multinational sporting event.
Appearing at the official London 2012 press conference today Muse’s Matt Bellamy said, “It’s a huge honor to have the track chosen as such a major part of the London 2012 Olympic Games. I wrote it with the Games in mind as it expresses a sense of conviction and determination to win.”
In addition to the new single Muse is poised to release their new studio album The 2nd Law this coming September, with a world tour to support its release beginning shortly after. You can view a teaser trailer for the release below.
