About this album

WM UK (2006) Released: 28 Jun 2006 11 tracks (45:22)
Black Holes and Revelations is the fourth studio album by English alternative rock band Muse, released on 3 July 2006. Recording was split between New York and France, and it was the first time Muse had taken a more active role in the album’s production. The album was a change in style from Muse’s previous albums, and the band cited influences that included Queen, Millionaire, Sly and the Family Stone, Depeche Mode, Franz Ferdinand and music from southern Italy.

The album has political and sci-fi undertones, with the lyrics covering topics as varied as political corruption, alien invasion, New World Order conspiracies as well as more conventional love songs.

The album sold 115,144 copies in its first week in the UK, which was more than the first week sales of Muse’s previous album, Absolution. The album is also a BPI double platinum album, and was nominated for a Mercury Prize. Five singles were released in the UK, of which three were released in the US. A world tour followed the release of the album that included dates in the UK, the USA, Canada, Australia and most of Europe and Asia.

    STARSCrazy and WoozieGTA, chill out. It's not bullshit at all, maybe it's not your type. I call myself a MUSER and I like all of their work, since Overdue 'til the very Neutron Star Collision. I'm really waiting for the 6th album - ofcourse, it'll be different from ALL of the others, but whatever - it'll be musey. Even if it won't be my fave I won't call it bullshit or something like that. And even if you don't call yourselves musers, do not insult their songs like that. It's pathetic. And now, after enjoyed Micro Cuts i'll listen something from The Resistance. Cheers, keep calm and enjoy the music you like without instulting other.

    contains some great moments, but I think the clean production lets it down compared to other Muse albums. Absolution is the best or OoS, not decided yet.
