Matt Bellamy - Interview- By Mikael Wood
What are those so-called worst parts of Muse?
Probably a tendency to veer off and experiment in areas that we’re not very experienced in. Most of [2012’s] “The 2nd Law,” for instance — classical dubstep, weird clarinet solos, whatever else is on that album. I think we felt we’d achieved so much with [the 2009 hit] “Uprising” that we could do no wrong. Obviously, we could.
You produced “Will of the People” yourself after collaborating with the producer Shellback on “Simulation Theory” and with Mutt Lange on 2015’s “Drones.”
With people like that who are so successful, I think sometimes we’ve gone in the studio and been a little bit like, “OK, we’ll do just whatever you say.” In hindsight, I wish I’d been more involved and put more of our stamp on it. So we’ve kind of gone back to our safe space on this album. If we’re in complete control, it may not be the most cutting-edge or the most modern-sounding thing, but it’s the only way to guarantee that we’re gonna love it.
Did recording during COVID speed up the process or slow it down?
It made us move quicker. We’d finished our last tour at the end of 2019, then I had a baby [with wife Elle Evans] in June 2020. So the plan was to take all of 2020 off, enjoy our families, then come back together in 2021 for some festivals and use that to get back into shape to make an album in 2022. But the pandemic — especially for me and Dom, because we were here in L.A. — it made us want to just get on and do something.
June 2020 was a heck of a time to bring a baby into the world.
I came to America in 2010 as a single person looking to experience L.A. for a bit — and, boy, have I had an experience. Ended up with a Hollywood actress [Kate Hudson], had a baby together and the whole cliché scenario of the ups and downs of celebrity life. Then married a Texan [model Elle Evans] and had another baby. Been evacuated from my house during wildfires. Then the pandemic and the full January 6 Trump meltdown. It’s just been an unbelievable period to be here.
“Will of the People” suggests it hasn’t left you terribly optimistic about the future.
It depends what your definition of optimism is. To me there’s a fighting spirit in the music, which is a form of optimism. It’s like the moment in “Rocky” when Adrian tells Rocky to win.
Do you think it’s clear to listeners who you’re fighting? In the new song “Compliance,” you’re singing sarcastically about people falling into line and doing as they’re told. It could be interpreted as an anti-woke anthem.
I never thought about it that way. I thought about it in terms of the rising authoritarianism that we’re now seeing is a real thing — Trump in this country, but also Putin and the China situation. These ideologies, I feel like we kind of tested the waters in the 20th century and realized that fascism and communism are both just absolute disasters and that we don’t need to go near that stuff ever again. And yet it’s emerging.
What’s your reaction to that?
I have an anti-authoritarian nature. My parents say that when I was a young child I was never very good at being told what to do. I don’t like the idea of vast centralized power that’s very far away from where I live. I come from Devon in England, which is a couple hundred miles from London. But when I went to see where my wife’s from in Paris, Texas, it’s like, Holy s—! It’s thousands of miles from the places of power in America. So the resistance to someone deciding how I should live who has no idea what my day-to-day life is — I can understand it, even though there’s a risk of it being hijacked by more extremist factions that have gone down roads I don’t agree with.
Have you considered becoming a U.S. citizen?
I have. Overall, I actually think the United States’ structure is really amazing, with all the different ways to make laws at the local level. It seems like every month my wife is voting on some sort of proposition. I’m looking at that going, Wow, England is so behind on that front. We don’t ever get to vote on policy.
The oddest thing about that late-2020 period where things in America and California seemed so chaotic and crazy was that I felt my connection deepening. There’s something going on here that is critical to what’s happening in the entire world. America has become a kind of center point for this idea that there’s an empire on the verge of collapse, and how do we save it? Or how do we know which parts to save and which parts to let fall away?
For some people — Dom, to some extent — it made them want to get out. But for me it had the opposite effect. It’s everything I’m interested in, and it’s massively creatively inspiring.
Has becoming wealthy shaped your political views?
I don’t think so. I remember all my feelings of what it was to be from a poor rural background with no opportunities and all the disadvantages. And I still have some views that would be considered pretty socialist by some. Universal health care is an obvious one; I can’t even believe there’s not universal healthcare here. I’ve also come to the view that maybe land shouldn’t be privately owned.
Can you relate to music that’s unambiguously joyful? Coldplay, let’s say.
Absolutely. Chris [Martin] is a friend of mine. I love what they do. I wish I could write more songs that enter the love sphere. But I think it might be against the nature of the sounds our band makes. When the three of us are jamming, it’s like Rage Against the Machine riffs are coming out all the time. I can’t imagine hearing those riffs with Chris Martin singing about peace and love on top.
What’s the happiest Muse song?
“Starlight” is pretty positive. I think “Verona” on the new album is pretty nice — little bit of “Romeo and Juliet” in there.
Do you think rock music is in good hands with the generation behind yours?
My 11-year-old son likes Slipknot and Metallica. My stepson Ryder from a previous situation [with Hudson], he’s 18 and he’s really into rock. He turned me on to Willow Smith.
Can you envision touring in your 60s and 70s like Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones?
Yeah, but Metallica is the one that’s really made me think we could do it. The Stones and McCartney, they have universally uplifting music. But Metallica — I’m not sure how old they are, but they’re up there — that’s really heavy music and they’re still out there. The great thing about rock is that, even though the genre is largely irrelevant in the mainstream, you can actually grow old with it. You can make a real life career.

.@muse is one of the most successful British bands of the 21st century, but according to frontman @MattBellamy, they’ve “always been outsiders.”

Album 9 WILL OF THE PEOPLE _26 August 2022
Matt Bellamy:"Will of the People is fictional story set in a fictional metaverse on a fictional planet ruled by a fictional authoritarian state run by a fictional algorithm manifested by a fictional data centre running a fictional bank printing a fictional currency controlling a fictional population occupying a fictional city containing a fictional apartment where a fictional man woke up one day and thought ‘fuck this."
Matt Bellamy:“Will Of The People was created in Los Angeles and London and is influenced by the increasing uncertainty and instability in the world. A pandemic, new wars in Europe, massive protests & riots, an attempted insurrection, Western democracy wavering, rising authoritarianism, wildfires and natural disasters and the destabilization of the global order all informed Will Of The People. It has been a worrying and scary time for all of us as the Western empire and the natural world, which have cradled us for so long are genuinely threatened. This album is a personal navigation through those fears and preparation for what comes next.”

We can survive all of this
The black vacuum of universe
It was designed
To swallow us whole
It's a losing game
We're at death's door
Another world war
Wildfires and earthquakes I foresaw
A life in crisis
A deadly virus
Tsunamis of hate are gonna find us
A-a-a-a-ah
We are fucking fucked
A-a-a-a-ah
We are fucking fucked
We're at death's door

True
Just when you think
You're safe and secure
You'll forget what you need to remember
Living in peace but you're living a lie
The game is rigged
We're at death's door

Wildfires and earthquakes I foresaw
A life in crisis
Mutated virus
Tsunamis of hate are gonna drown us
A-a-a-a-ah

Can we kiss
With poison on our lips
Well I'm not scared
Can we touch and taste forbidden bliss
They can't stop us now, I won't let you be alone
I am coming for you
Keep us apart, it's too much to ask
We're running away
Take off your clothes and take off your mask
It's not over now, I won't leave you in the dark
Because I need you so
Can we kiss, contagion on our lips
Well I don't care
We can touch and feel forbidden bliss
They can't stop us now, I won't let you feel alone
Because I need you so
You and me
Throw caution to the wind
And I will risk everything just to feel the warmth and voltage from your skin
If this is my last day on earth, I just want to be with you
You are all that's true
We will kiss, with poison on our lips
Well I'm not scared
We will touch and reach forbidden bliss
They can't stop us now, I won't let you die alone
Because I love you so

Director LOST http://www.lost.org
Choreographer James Cousins
Dancers Tania Dimbelolo and Tia May Hockey
_______________________
Now and then
My mind drifts to a place where I find you
Lost in my head
There are unsolved feelings that haunt me
It's too late to heal
I'll lay them to rest
How can I move on
When everyone I see still talks about you
How can I move on
When all the best things I have we made together
Here's to letting go
But I am lost in a void
With your ghost and our memories
Lest we forget
The great reset
If I could bring you back
There are truths and confessions I'd tell you
I'd set things straight
And I believe that you would love and forgive me
I know it's too late
I need to let go
How can I move on
When everyone I see still talks about you
How can I move on
When all the best things I have we built together
Here's to letting go
But I am trapped in a void with your ghost and our memories
Lest we forget
The great reset
How can I sleep with this coldness beside me
How can I sleep with this coldness inside me
I can't bring back your love
How can I move on
When everyone I see still talks about you
How can I move on
When all the best things I have we made together
Here's to letting go
But I am lost in a void with your ghost and our memories
Lest we forget
The great reset

LIBERATION
Directed & Edited: Ben Lowe & Jack Lowe
________________________
Silenced
You'll make us feel silenced
You stole the airwaves, but the air belongs to us
And violence, you'll make us turn to violence
You've left us choice-less
Our backs against the wall no more, and
We have plans to take you down
We intend to erase your place in history
Soon (soon) you'll be left with nothing
So I guess we should thank you (thank you)
Thank you (thank you)
Thank you (thank you)
We've had enough
We thank you for playing your part in our liberation
And losing, the world can see you're losing
You'll send the army to trample on our prayers
And silenced, we'll be no longer silenced
You'll hear our voices
They'll rise even though we're under siege, and
We have plans to take you down (forced abdication)
We intend to erase your place in history (regime revocation)
Soon (soon) you'll be left with nothing
So I guess we should thank you (thank you)
Thank you (thank you)
Thank you (thank you)
We've had enough
Thank you for playing your part in our liberation, liberation
Liberation...
Liberation...

EUPHORIA

________________
Shut down
We are growing spiritless
If no one cares, then who is gonna save us?
Give us euphoria
Worn out
Everything will fall apart
So shine a light and warm up this heavy heart
Give us euphoria
Brooding
I need renewing
I want satisfaction
A gut reaction
Give us euphoria
Give us euphoria
It's been all work and no play
Give us euphoria
Give us euphoria
I need to numb all the pain
Wake up
We're becoming restless
Our last hope and only you can save us
Give us euphoria
Sealed off to numb all the pain
We are running out of air
So start a fire and spice up this love affair
Give us euphoria
Brooding
I need renewing
I need satisfaction
A gut reaction
Give us euphoria
Give us euphoria
It's been all work and no play
Give us euphoria
Give us euphoria
I need to numb all the pain
Euphoria
Give us euphoria
It's been all work and no play
Give me euphoria

YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE IT'S HALLOWEEN [Official Music Video]
Director: Tom Teller
_________________
You got me checking my mirror
You make me feel like I'm on the run
Where'd you hide the gun?
The kitchen knife in your hand
Are you the poison, are you the cure?
I'm not so sure
I'm shackled, there is no way out
I can't escape
When you turn out the lights
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
When you skulk 'round the house
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
You cut me off from my friends
You cut me off from my family
I'm in misery (I'm your number one fan)
Each day I fall to my knees
I see the writing is on the wall
Now I'm in withdrawal
I'm shackled, there is no way out
(There's is nothing I can do to escape)
I can't escape
When you turn out the lights
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
The way you skulk 'round the house
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
Ahhh
When you turn out the lights
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
When you skulk 'round the house
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
I see your eye in the keyhole
I feel like it's Halloween
It's Halloween
Won't reset until I'm possessed
You make me feel like it's Halloween, it's Halloween
