Muse: Origin Of Symmetry (2LP)

"Origin of Symmetry" is the album that changed everything for Muse. In a way both more spontaneous and more experimental than their debut album 'Showbiz', in all its ambition, sprawling influences and grandiosity it was worlds away from the garage rock revivalists and chest-thumping nu-metal that held sway at the time. Propelled by the band's first two European mainstream hits, 'Plug In Baby' and 'New Born', the album gave them their first top 10 success in the UK, where it debuted at number 3. Since then, it has earned a reputation as a fan favorite while achieving great commercial success.
