If Muse sounded like a new band on Black Holes And Revelations it's because, after Glastonbury, they were: expanded of mind, settled of spirit and anything but sedentary of sound. Lyrical themes abound from apocalyptic soundbites to conspiracy theories to the idea that identity cards are the first sign of the onset of the end of the world. Black Holes and Revelations, marked the band's brightest, most dynamic set of material to date, topping the U.K. and European album charts within its first week and earning Muse their second consecutive number one album. In America, Black Holes and Revelations broke into the Top Ten.
