Muse revealed the track listing for their sixth studio album, The 2nd Law today.
Supremacy
Madness
Panic Station
Prelude
Survival
Follow Me
Animals
Explorers
Big Freeze
Save Me
Liquid State
The 2nd Law: Unsustainable
The 2nd Law: Isolated System
As you can see, both Unsustainable (the dubstep-like song featured in the album trailer) and Survival (the official song for the Olympic Games in London this summer) are featured on the album. I can't wait until September, to hear what the album will sound like.
Since Survival will be played practically the whole time during the Olympics, maybe they're worth watching this time?
Cheers!

Song Of The Week: Carry On Wayward Son by Kansas
Hello everyone,
This week's song of the week is Carry On Wayward Son by Kansas. The past month, I've been watching Supernatural almost non-stop (I'm currently halfway season 7) and this song is frequently used as a soundtrack. It might not be everyone's taste - my younger sister hates it - but I think the song, and especially the guitar parts, are awesome.
I found a non-official song meaning on Yahoo Answers, which is the most fucked-up site I've ever seen with really scary questions and even scarier answers ('I think my friend has caught the emo. Is there a cure and is it expensive?') but the answer to the question behind the meaning of Carry On Wayward Son sounds pretty good.
"[Carry On Wayward Son]'s a general spiritual song about life. Throughout the song, the singer hears (what I presume to be) the voice of God telling him to carry on through hardship and high points. "I was soaring ever higher" perhaps signifies the high points in the singer's life and the following "but I flew too high" may suggest a fall from grace. "Tossed about like a ship on the ocean" suggests being out of control and at the mercy of life's hardships and "I set a course for winds of fortune" could mean the singer's picking himself up out of a down period and moving on to a brighter future. The bridge (and the ending) "Carry on, you will always remember. Carry on, nothing equals the splendor. Now your life's no longer empty. Surely heaven waits for you." suggests that life was worth living through all of the experiences since, if the singer had not 'carried on' then life would have been meaningless."
You can find the lyrics to Carry On Wayward Son by clicking here. I also highly recommend watching Supernatural because the show is fantastic. Season one and two are, on a scale from one to ten, a five, but everything from season three to seven is at least worth an eight. Season eight is coming up soon, but I haven't found dates for the season premiere outside the US yet.
Sorry for my lack of posting lately. I'm on a holiday for three weeks this Sunday, but when I'm back I'll try to post more regularly again. Thanks for reading and cheers!
xoxo
