After finding success with hits like "Hysteria" and "Time Is Running Out" Muse unleashed their biggest and boldest album to date. 2006's "Black Holes And Revelations" pushed boundaries by combining classic hard rock, Queen-like harmonies, baroque complexity, to showcase the band's impeccable skill. Whether this ambitious effort succeeds is a matter of taste, but what we found indisputable was that Muse has the capacity to create sounds unlike any other band before or since.
