"'Cryogen,' with its winding riff from Matt Bellamy and its propulsive drumming from Dominic Howard, immediately recalls Muse's older sound from the early aughts; the riff almost feels like an alternate version of 'Plug-In Baby.'"
"The lyrics see Bellamy envisioning a freezing environment on Europa and how, basically, it's as cold as his heart. The track also ends with a fun Muse-style breakdown."
"'The Musiest song to be Mused in years,' reflects a YouTube comment about 'Cryogen,' highlighting its return to the band's signature style."
Muse's latest single 'Cryogen' features a winding riff reminiscent of their early 2000s sound, particularly echoing 'Plug-In Baby.' The lyrics depict a freezing environment on Europa, reflecting a cold emotional state. The track maintains a rock-centered style and concludes with a signature Muse breakdown. Their upcoming album, The WOW! Signal, is set to release on June 26th, accompanied by a North American summer tour. Previous single 'Be With You' is noted as less enjoyable compared to 'Cryogen.'
