'''Drones''' is the seventh studio album by the English AlternativeRock band Music/{{Muse}}, released in 5 June 2015.
!!Tracklist:
# "Dead Inside" (4:22)
# "[Drill Sergeant]" (0:21)
# "Psycho" (5:16)
# "Mercy" (3:51)
# "Reapers" (5:59)
# "The Handler" (4:33)
# "[JFK]" (0:54)
# "Defector" (4:33)
# "Revolt" (4:05)
# "Aftermath" (5:47)
# "The Globalist" (10:07)
# "Drones" (2:49)
!!HERE COMES THE TROPES!
* AlbumTitleDrop: ''Drones'' appears in the lyrics of many songs throughout the album.
* AnimatedMusicVideo: The video for "Aftermath", which was a collaboration with the Japanese director Tekken.
* ApocalypseHow: [[spoiler: The end of "Drones" is a class 2 or even a 3a. It's explicitly stated 'There's no countries left', and it is most likely only two people are left alive.]]
* ArmiesAreEvil: Their track [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqLRqzTp6Rk Psycho]] appears to take this stance.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: The woman from the music video for "Dead Inside". [[spoiler:And at the end, the man too.]]
* ClusterFBomb: "Psycho" has the line "A fucking psycho" repeated [[RuleOfThree three times]] in the chorus apparently by a DrillSergeantNasty.
* ConceptAlbum: ''Drones'' is a concept album about a person who joins the rankings of being a "drone" within warfare and eventually defects. [[spoiler: Beware the huge DownerEnding]].
** Matt later on confirmed that the album has ''two stories'': Songs 1-10 follow the story of "Mary", who joins the rankings of being a "drone" within the army after losing her lover. The last two tracks are about a man who follows a similar story like Mary, but [[spoiler: it only leads to a DownerEnding]].
* DarkerAndEdgier: The album aims for this, according to Matthew Bellamy, and as one of its storylines ends with almost all of mankind killed by nukes, it certainly shows.
* DesperatelyCravesAffection: The narrator of "Dead Inside" appears to be this.
* DrillSergeantNasty: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqLRqzTp6Rk Psycho's]] lyric video opens with surreal imagery and a very loud, very abusive drill sergeant hamming it up. It's also from a drill sergeant's point of view.
* EpicRocking: "The Globalist", clocking out at 10:07, being their single longest song to date.
** If you take the TitleTrack as a coda to "The Globalist", both songs would end up totaling 12:56 in length.
* EverybodyDiesEnding: [[spoiler:The entire world is nuked at the end of "The Globalist"]].
* FadingIntoTheNextSong: Starting from "The Handler" until the end of the album, all tracks fade into the next song: "The Handler" into "[JFK]" into "Defector" into "Revolt" into "Aftermath" into "The Globalist" into "Drones".
* {{Fanservice}}: The lyric video for "Dead Inside."
* LastNoteNightmare: "Reapers" ends with an absolute ''shriek'' of "HERE COME THE DRONES!" Several times over.
* LyricalDissonance: "Mercy" has a similar sound to "[[Music/BlackHolesAndRevelations Starlight]]", and it is about someone trying, and presumably failing, to escape mind control.
* MetalScream: "Psycho":
-->''I'm gonna make you! I'm gonna break you! I'm gonna make you! A FUCKING PSYCHO!''
* MinisculeRocking: "Drill Sergeant" and "[JFK]".
* MusicalNod: "The Globalist" features both the Adagio in G minor[[note]]frequently attributed to Tomaso Albinoni, but composed by Remo Giazotto[[/note]], and Variation IX ("Nimrod") from Edward Elgar's ''Enigma Variations''.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone? : The ending of "The Globalist."
* NonAppearingTitle: "Aftermath" and "The Globalist"
* OneWordTitle: "Psycho" and "Drones".
* OutOfGenreExperience: The title track of ''Drones'' is an a capella Gregorian chant.
* PlayingWithPuppets: The music video and stage visuals for "The Handler" feature faceless hands controlling marionettes.
* PunctuatedForEmphasis: The chorus of "Defector":
---> I'M-A-DE-FEC-TOR!
* RobotGirl: The focus of the music video for "Mercy". She's also being used as a {{Sexbot}}.
* ShoutOut: One scene in the official lyrics video for the song "Mercy" (about a person feeling disillusioned with the totalitarian system where they work) shows a few masks. One is a [[ComicBook/VForVendetta Guy Fawkes mask]].
* TitleTrack
* VillainSong:
** "Psycho" is sung from the perspective of a DrillSergeantNasty (complete with drill sergeant samples) who wants to turn to person he is talking to into a mindless soldier.
** "The Globalist" is about a man rising through the ranks of a corrupt system until he controls it, and using that control to destroy the world in a nuclear holocaust. The final verse has him finally realize what a monster he's become.
* WarIsHell: Basically, premise of the album.
