- UPDATE: Tour now announced - see full details here
After the artwork was accidentally revealed early with a link to pre-order by iTunes, the band have now shared the LP sleeve on their official Instagram account.
The cover was designed by Matt Mauhrin, who has previously done iconic work for the likes of Ozzy Osbourne, Tracy Chapman and Tom Waits.
"I'll be doing the photography, illustration and designing of the package," he revealed earlier this year. 2I will also be doing some motion work that will support the still images."
He continued, "The album title is Drones - a word offering a dark and intriguing exploration of the potential virtues and abuses that come with control, responsibility, and purpose."
Meanwhile, Muse fans are also waiting the release of new single 'Pyscho', after the band revealed that they were mixing it 'to a VERY tight deadline' and frontman Matt Bellamy told fans to expect news tomorrow (Thursday 12 March):
“@uprisistance: @MattBellamy WE NEED MORE ANSWERS MATT, MORE DETAILS, PLEASE”. Hitting deadlines! All news you want released tomorrow.
