Muse bring epic show to Isle of Wight, jam Slipknot and Guns N’ Roses during set

Last night (June 19), Muse brought their stunning stage show to cinch presents… The Isle of Wight Festival for an absolutely epic show.

The trio unleashed a mammoth 22-song setlist on the night, with material from new album Will Of The People plus plenty of colossal hits. And they heavied-up their own songs, throwing in Back In Black and Know Your Enemy riffs at the end of Hysteria, Slipknot’s Duality for the Won’t Stand Down outro, and Guns N’ Roses’ Sweet Child O’ Mine at the end of Plug In Baby. Awesome.

Later this year, Muse will be playing a bunch of intimate theatre shows across the globe, from Los Angeles to Milan. The gigs will follow the release of their upcoming ninth album, which arrives on August 26.

Check out fan-filmed footage of Won’t Stand Down-meets-Duality below:
