Muse to release sixth album in September 2012 - BBC News
Muse's Matt Bellamy revealed the new album would be out in September
Muse have revealed the title and release date for their forthcoming sixth studio album.
The Teignmouth rockers announced the title of the album, The 2nd Law, in a video trailer posted on their website.
The clip also confirmed that the album would be coming out in September after spending most of the year in a studio in London.
The band's most recent album The Resistance topped the UK album chart when it was released in 2009.
The two-minute long video on the group's website for the new album features a montage of news events, performance footage of the band and a clip of a track which appears to be influenced by dubstep.
Last month thousands of people turned out to see the threesome carry the Olympic flame through their Devon home town.
Their last live appearances in the UK came when they headlined the Reading and Leeds festivals in August 2011.
Spanish football in mourning for Preciado - UEFA
Spanish football is mourning the death of Manolo Preciado, the former coach of Real Racing Club and Real Sporting de Gijón, who has died aged 54 after suffering a fatal heart attack.
One of the game's most charismatic and best loved characters, Preciado had recently agreed to take up the reins at relegated Villarreal CF following a largely successful five-and-a-half years with Real Sporting de Gijón, whom he led into Spain's top flight. That was one of five promotions achieved by Preciado, who also took Levante UD into the Liga.
Following a playing career that began with Real Racing Club in 1977, Preciado twice coached the Santander side and also had spells in charge at RS Gimnástica de Torrelavega – where he made the transition from player to coach – and Real Murcia CF.
Speaking from Spain's UEFA EURO 2012 base camp in Gniewino, coach Vicente del Bosque said: "It is a shock. We were told the news during breakfast and were all left stunned. Manuel was a footballing man and a fighter who excellently represented the values of our sport."
BJP chief gets an earful from RSS - deccanchronicle.com
RSS bigwigs reportedly gave BJP state president K.S. Eshwarappa an earful for his remarks that the BJP government rode to power in 2008 relying on money and caste power. The BJP chief had ignited a fresh controversy in the ruling party with loyalists of former CM B.S. Yeddyurappa—many of whom had shifted from the Congress and JD(S) to the BJP— expressing outrage over his remarks.
The BJP president had said that the Yeddyurappa government was formed by launching Operation Kamala with money and caste playing a prime role. With the BJP just having emerged from a severe crisis, RSS functionaries reportedly advised Eshwarappa to focus on balancing the interests of different groups instead of raking up controversies. Soon after the rebuke, Eshwarappa denied making the statement attributed to him.
Downing defiant after Liverpool nightmare - Football
Published: 07 Jun 2012 - 18:17:36
England winger Stewart Downing believes he has emerged a stronger player after being given a critical mauling during his debut season at Liverpool.
The 27-year-old was a controversial inclusion in Roy Hodgson's Euro 2012 squad after a difficult first year at Anfield which saw him contribute precisely zero goals or assists to Liverpool's league campaign.
Downing's difficulties have seen him become the butt of Internet jokes -- a Youtube compilation of his 2011/2012 highlights features a blank screen -- but the midfielder shrugs off the jibes.
"Criticism makes you stronger," the winger told reporters in Krakow on Thursday.
"You are always going to get criticised at a big club like Liverpool but it is a great club to play for.
"I thoroughly enjoyed my first season and I am sure we will be better next year."
Downing, who cost Liverpool £20 million last summer, often found himself in the firing line after a campaign that saw the club finish eighth.
The failure of Downing and other big-money signings ultimately cost manager Kenny Dalglish his job, with the Kop icon sacked last month before being replaced by Swansea's Brendan Rodgers.
However Downing believes Liverpool's eighth place finish did not reflect their form in general over the season.
"A lot has been said about Liverpool and the fact we didn't perform but we battered teams at Anfield at times," he said.
"I can think of one or two bad performances. Most of the time we were very unlucky.
"We just didn't have that killer instinct. The manager said there wasn't much you could say and that was probably right.
"But a lot of new players signed, we played in two cup finals and came away with a medal so there were a lot of positives to come out of it as well."
Downing, who could start for England in their Group D opener against France in Donetsk next Monday, is adamant that the Three Lions should have nothing to fear from Les Bleus despite their 21-match unbeaten streak.
"We don't fear them," he said. "France are a good team but so are we.
"We know their strengths and weaknesses. They are good going forward and have some great individual players.
"It will be a tough game but it is a great opening match for us to play and we are confident we can get a result against them."
