FreeV is pleased to once again present Muse and the videos for their song titled JFK + Defector which was directed by Tom Kirk, and for the song titled Psycho which was directed by Tom Kirk and Simon Bennett. Both songs are from the Muse album titled DRONES.

Muse is a trio whose members are:
- Matt Bellamy on lead vocals, guitars, keyboards, piano, synthesizers and keytar.
- Dominic Howard is on drums, percussions, synthesizers and backing vocals.
- Chris Wolstenholme on bass guitar, backing/lead vocals, guitars, keyboards and harmonica
Matt Bellamy was the principal songwriter on DRONES with the exception of two classical music composers in the final two tracks of this twelve song album.
- Track #11 titled "The Globalist" contains music based on "Nimrod" from the Enigma Variations, composed by Edward Elgar, the self taught English composer 1857 to 1934, whose style, story and musical depth is a study. He drew sketches and water-colored on his sheet music, adding a dimension to the feeling of the music.
- Track #12, which is titled Drones, contains music based on the Benedictus from Missa Papae Marcelli, a mass (church) sine nomine by a composer active in the mid to late 1500's named Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina.
Philosophically, DRONES is a concept album that tells a story of soldier from abandonment to indoctrination as a human drone and to his eventual defection.
The previous two MUSE albums prior to DRONES were self produced. On DRONES, they collaborated with legendary producer Mutt Lange. If you are not familiar with Mutt, here is a listing of his top 10 albums according to Eduardo Rivadavia of UltimateClassicRock.Com.
