Dom Howard has brushed criticism for the band's Olympics song, saying it's not just something for the Games, it's a full-blown Muse track.
Discussing the song, 'Survival', drummer told NME: "It's a proper Muse song. It's not something we just did for the Olympics. They sowed a seed by asking us to do some music, but then five months went by. We showed them a few songs when they asked us about the closing ceremony, and they loved it.
"It represents the enormous competition of what the Olympics is."
