While the release of a new track\u00a0sparked excitement amongst fans for more music to come, &#8220;Heart Is Full&#8221; itself was a far step away from the piano-driven and pop-to-the-core hits that Miike Snow championed years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Fans need\u00a0not fear, though. Today, Miike Snow returns in full-swing with the second release from their forthcoming album <em>iii<\/em>.\u00a0While &#8220;Genghis Khan&#8221; is much more reminiscent of their\u00a0addicting\u00a0pop catalogue, Miike Snow has advised fans not to expect the same old sound for their third album release.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we came out, I don&#8217;t think a lot of things sounded like us, but now I think a lot of stuff sounds like Miike Snow&#8217;s first record. I don&#8217;t think the right move is to ever stay in one place,&#8221; Andrew Wyatt of Miike Snow explained to <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/news\/miike-snow-on-writing-pop-thats-not-bad-for-your-health-20151203\">Rolling Stone<\/a><\/em>. &#8220;I think people appreciate the spirit of it. Sure, &#8220;Heart Is Full&#8221; and the album opener are a total departure. We&#8217;ve never made a track before from a starting point of a pre-existing instrumental track from a hip-hop record and making a song out of it. We&#8217;ve never operated from that basis before. I think the question should always be &#8220;Is it good or isn&#8217;t it good?&#8221; Not &#8220;Does it sound like you?&#8221; or what people&#8217;s expectations of you are.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>iii<\/em> is set for a March 4th release, giving fans plenty of time to get comfortable with the idea of a musically, aesthetically and newly transformed Miike Snow.<\/p>\n<p>Via: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/news\/miike-snow-on-writing-pop-thats-not-bad-for-your-health-20151203?page=4\">Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dancingastronaut.com\/2015\/10\/miike-snow-reveals-first-original-since-2012-heart-full\/\">Miike Snow reveals first original since 2012, \u2018Heart Is Full\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miike Snow unveils a spring release date for new album &#8216;iii&#8217;
