Muse to spend a year on a new album

Muse manager Anthony Addis revealed that the band has started the work on the new album. According to his words, Matt Bellamy and others have already written a significant amount of songs – however, the record will not hit the stores until October 2012.

"They've written a lot of material already but you don't know how it's going to gel between them all. They write constantly. They write on the road, so before or after a gig they'll write nearly every night", claimed Addis.

He added: "It's a serious process, but you don't know how it's going to turn out until you start practising it together, because everybody's done it individually".

Earlier Muse revealed plans concerning their next studio effort. According to the band's bassist Chris Wolstenholme, they are going to start the work on the album this autumn – however, they do not know when it will come out.

"We've got Reading And Leeds Festival, we set to headline it in August and maybe a few weeks off after that. So September, October time we'll get into the studio and start writing and working on the songs", said Wolstenholme.

Muse's last to date album The Resistance hit the stores in 2009.
