Muse's new song, 'Undisclosed Desires,' explores a deeply intimate corner of lead vocalist Matthew Bellamy's romantic life, but also manages to speak to the band's legions of fans.
As Bellamy stated in Q Magazine, 'Undisclosed Desires' is "quite a personal song about me and my girlfriend." And after just one listen, it becomes all too clear that Muse's new song certainly has an extra dimension of personal significance behind it. After a slap bass and pizzicato-infused opening, the song gradually picks up the pace, and slowly crescendos to an understated, but haunting melody. Over the course of just a few minutes, Muse manages to penetrate our minds, and leave us full of questions.
'Undisclosed Desires' is featured on Muse's album, 'The Resistance,' which was released in 2009. According to Bellamy, the orchestration featured on this new song is pretty indicative of the album's sound, in general. "It's the first song we've had where I don't play guitar or piano," Bellamy explains to Mojo magazine. "By the end the album's almost purely classical in style. It's not orchestration you'd normally expect from a rock band and we've done all the arranging and scoring."
