Muse - Black Holes & Revelations

The limited edition CD also comes with a DVD of Muse’s performance at the Glastonbury festival in 2004, a mammoth of a show that plays like a greatest hits reel—typical festival show, but it just demonstrates perfectly what we mean by a ‘stadium sound’, what oversized melodies and wall of sound means blasted across tens of thousands of jumping heads. Professional and isolated on the huge stage, the trio lets the songs speak for themselves—“New Born”, “Sing For Absolution”, “Muscle Museum”, “Apocalypse Please” (of course it continues)—a mammoth show.

At this point you probably fall into one of these three camps:

1. You like Muse, perhaps somewhat shamefadedly.

2. You hate Muse with a fashionable passion (that you’ve made it this far in this review, well done)

3. You’ve never heard of Muse.

Not such a tricky segmentation. Well, if you’re a #1 you’ll probably enjoy this album—it’s interesting, and entertaining as well. If you’re a #3, well, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend Black Holes as an entry-point for determining if you’re a #1 or a #2. Check out Absolution; this new album’s a solid second. If you’re a #2, well, you may just be ignoring a band that’s outgrown its influences, into a really solid, if somewhat theatrical, hard rock band.
