[Watch] Regina Spektor - "Don’t Leave Me (Ne Me Quitte Pas)" Live on Fallon

Earlier in the week while the UK celebrated the Queen's Jubilee, the rest of the world carried on as normal. Whatever normal may be for your part of the word I mean. Not that celebrating a woman born into millions and a monarchy is exactly normal but you know, we're British. Regina Spektor's normal was a visit to the studio of Jimmy Fallon and a performance of Don’t Leave Me (Ne Me Quitte Pas)" which features on her newly released album What We Saw From the Cheap Seats. Check it out at the top.

[Watch] Muse Announce New Album: 'The 2nd Law'

Muse have announced that their new album is entitled The 2nd Law, and it will be released on the 16th of September, 2012. They've also posted up a trailer which features music from a track called "Entropy". The track is not what I expected and could be called dubstep after a big string arrangement. It sounds like Matt messing around with his Zvex Fuzz Factory and Kaoss Pad to an extreme which he often does in a life setting. Rumours have also started circling around about a tour announcement later this month.

Dom has also tweeted stating the abum is to feature "Fat beats and riffs..." so this may or may not be a good representation of what's to come.

@Dominic_Howard playing the new Muse tracks.Sounding f-ing awesome.Fat beats&riffs but not in the tired old rock format.Sick.

Watch this space for more info in the coming week.
