It quickly gained attention, reaching 3 million global streams in its first week and becoming the #1 Most Added song at Alternative Radio.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Its release included a widely reported stunt that saw the band send the music video into the upper atmosphere as a part of the album announcement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The album takes its name from the unexplained 1977 \u201cWow!\u201d Signal, a short radio burst that has long been linked to ideas about possible alien life. The reference appears to shape the project\u2019s direction, with \u201cCryogen\u201d focusing on distance and emotional isolation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"observer-sub-form justify-content-center my-3 p-0 d-flex align-items-stretch bg-dark text-white\">\n<div class=\"observer-sub-form-info p-3\" style=\"justify-content: start;\">\n<h2 class=\"h5 mb-0 observer-title\">Love Music?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"observer-desc mb-2\"> Get your daily dose of everything happening in Australian\/New Zealand music and globally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"spinner d-none\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">The band recently previewed \u201cCryogen\u201d live at London\u2019s O2 Academy Brixton \u2014 their first performance at the venue since 2001. Early responses pointed to a revival of the band\u2019s more guitar-driven sound.<i> <\/i>The show drew strong reviews, with <i>NME <\/i>describing \u201cCryogen\u201d as \u201ca blast of classic <i>Muse <\/i>harking back to their \u201900s days with wailing riffs [and] an arena-destroying chorus,\u201d while also noting fans had camped out overnight to get close to the stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">With multiple tracks now released ahead of <i>The Wow!
