Today (Wednesday September 30), the band announced that Boston rock outfit Dead Poet Society will be joining them as the opening act on the forthcoming dates.
The group are set to release their new studio record, ‘Monarch’, this Friday (October 2) via Spinefarm. Pre-order/pre-save here. They’ve already previewed the imminent project with the singles ‘Miami For The Weekend’, ‘Cold’, ‘Roach’ and ‘Sinner Systems’.
Following on from 2024’s ‘Fission’, the album was produced by Mutemath frontman Paul Meany (Twenty One Pilots, Pierce The Veil), mixed by Grammy-winner Adam Hawkins (Turnstile, Yungblud), and recorded at Valley View Studios and The Park in Los Angeles.
Dead Poet Society are comprised of Jack Underkofler (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards), Jack Collins (guitar, backing vocals, drum programming, keyboards), Dylan Brenner (bass, additional guitars) and Will Goodroad (drums).
Muse recently wrapped up the North American leg of their 2026 tour. During an interview with NME this summer, frontman Bellamy shared the trio’s ambitious plans for the upcoming UK and European trek.
“We’re trying to build a spaceship – as you do,” he told us. “The quote came in and it’s more expensive than some of these houses [in Primrose Hill], and that’s saying something around here.”
He continued: “We’re trying to work with that, build a spaceship, do some new stuff with lasers that’s never been done before, and yeah, it will be a classic. It’s going to be more in the space, sci-fi realm, which I think is cool for us.
“I don’t think it will [fly]. That’s the thing that costs more than a house, but it will be something cool, I promise.”

NME gave ‘The Wow! Signal’ a four-star review, hailing it as Muse’s “best album in 20 years”. The band launched their current era with an intimate gig at Brixton Academy in April, marking their first performance at the venue since 2001.
In other news, Muse have been forced to change their social media handles to make way for Meta’s new AI tool. Bellamy has since commented on the situation, saying that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg had sent him “the beta version of the AI” ahead of its launch.
