British Alternative Rock at its Finest

Muse is a three-piece band from Teignmouth, Devon in England. The band consists of Matthew Bellamy on lead vocals, piano, keyboard and guitar, Chris Wolstenholme on backing vocals and bass guitar, and Dominic Howard on drums and percussion.
They have been friends since their formation in early 1990 and changed band names a number of times (such as Gothic Plague, Fixed Penalty, and Rocket Baby Dolls) before adopting the name Muse. Since the release of their fourth album, Morgan Nicholls has also appeared with the band at live performances to provide keyboards, samples/synth, and backing vocals.

Their sound is a blend of alternative rock, classical music, electronica, heavy metal, spanish guitars, and progressive rock. Usually they use the bass line as the driving force, often with the guitar providing only an extra layer to the song rather than carrying the melody, the bass has distortion and other effects applied to it to achieve a greater weight, allowing the guitar to digress from the main tune and play higher notes.

Muse - Starlight 

Far away
This ship has taken me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

Starlight
I will be chasing a starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

Muse Starlight Lyrics

I'll make it easy for you. Here's the link to their 'Newborn' video should you want to include it in your lens. If you don't want, it's ok too, just a suggestion.

I love Muse. Thanks for making this great lens for me. They were in Malaysia last year but I didn't go coz it was sold out in a matter of days. I was so frustrated. I think you should include 'Newborn' song too in your video section. That song rocks man. 5 stars.
