Muse have tonight (27th June) unveiled their new single ‘Survival’, playing it for the first time on BBC Radio One.
The track will be the ‘official’ song of the London 2012 Olympic Games. It precedes their forthcoming studio album ‘The 2nd Law’, set for release on the 17th September. You can stream ‘Survival’ by following this link and read our first impressions of the track here.
The statement from the band read: ‘We are very excited to announce that a Muse song, Survival, has been selected by the London Olympic committee to be the main official song for the London 2012 Olympic Games. Matt wrote the song with the Olympics in mind. It’s about total conviction and pure determination to win.
The song will be played throughout the Games including when athletes enter the stadium, in the lead up to the medal ceremony and also as the theme for all international TV coverage. The worldwide radio exclusive will be tonight on BBC Radio 1 during Zane Lowe’s show around 19:30 and will be available to buy on iTunes and in the muse.mu store immediately afterwards.
We are honoured that the Olympics have chosen our song to officially represent the London 2012 Olympic Games across the globe.’
Muse are set to play a run of European dates before the end of the year. You’ll find them below.
