The 2nd Law

( 2 )

Editorial Reviews

All Music Guide
This sixth album from the English prog rockers is the eagerly anticipated follow-up to 2009's The Resistance. Described by the band as "radically different" from their previous work, the album incorporates electronic and synth pop elements and is said to be influenced at least in part by acts such as Justice, Skrillex, and Does It Offend You, Yeah? It includes the singles "Survival" (the official song of the 2012 Olympic Games) and "Madness" and features lead vocals for the first time from bassist Chris Wolstenholme, on two tracks which he also wrote.
