Frontman Matt Bellamy described “Drones” as “a modern metaphor for what it is to lose empathy,” adding: “Through modern technology, and drone warfare in particular, it’s possible to do horrific things at a great distance – without actually feeling any of the consequences, or even feeling responsible.”

Last month he admitted to doubts over working with producer Mutt Lange before recording began. He said: “I didn’t want us to be turned into a kind of top 40 act. He wasn’t like that at all – he was totally into the concept.”

Swedish Band Release Album Via App That Will Only Play if Listener Is in a Forest

Swedish folk band John Moose have taken immersion to a new level with their debut album – the record will only play if the listener is deep in a forest.
As Rolling Stone reports, the band’s self-titled album was pre-released via an app designed by drummer Tobias Nor that uses GPS to determine where the listener is:

“The app uses Google Maps where forests have a specific green color. GPS coordinates are sent from the smartphone to a web service which scans the map through Google Maps Static API and uses a specific algorithm to determine if the user is in the woods ‘enough.'”

“Throughout his journey something grows, an anxiety stronger than he has ever known before,” the band explains. “He becomes obsessed and senseless. He violates nature and believes he owns everything that crosses his path. He gives up and is nurtured by the earth he has tortured. It seals his body and shatters his dream.”

According to the band, the decision to release the album via the app was inspired by wanting people to “think about nature – what it is and how we should relate to it. So the best way, we thought, is to force people into the woods.”

The album is available for iOS and Android.

For guitar lessons, The A major barre chord is a very common chord used in thousands and thousands of pop songs it is most commonly associated with blues music such as the 12 bar blues structure however you will find it in everything from Jimi Hendrix to Stevie Ray Vaughn or Zeppelin. Unexpectedly, you can also find it in minor progressions as well as classical pieces where the chord is a borrowed chord from the parallel harmonic minor key (more on this in advanced theory and composition!). Scales that work with it include the mixolydian, minor pentatonic, major pentatonic, blues, and Phrygian dominant — common scales used by guitar teachers. Popular songs that include it are lots of 12 bar blues progressions of lots of songs by Stevie Ray Vaughan such as Pride and Joy, “Stray Cat Strut” by the Stray Cats and also “Crazy Train” by Ozzy Osbourne as well as “Sweet Emotion” by Aerosmith.

It is composed of the root note A the major third C# the perfect fifth E. (A-C#-E). It’s chord formula is 1-3-5 . As with most of the chords in the beginner section there are many different “voicings” of the chord whereby the order of the notes played will change, the notes that are doubled, the notes that are omitted or where they are played on the guitar fretboard and what register. However the form showed here is A major barre chord to know first which is what guitar teachers focus on. Songwriters, rhythm guitar players, lead guitar players will all need to know this chord as as such, it is taught in guitar lessons the very first week.

This chord list is by no means complete but gives students the most bang for the buck for a very small amount of information. Jimmy cypher is often asked by students in guitar lessons if ALL of these chords are necessary since some are not easy to play on the first day. The answer is YES 🙂 Most chord encyclopedias list over 1000 chords in mostly random order, irrespective of importance. Jimmy has pared it down to less than 50, and every one of them will eventually appear in student’s favorite songs that they bring into guitar lessons.
