- Muse just before their peak
Back when Muse were younger they belonged to Maddona's label Maverick. Which made this more poppy. But it's still very good. The only problem is the arrangement of the album.
1. Sunburn 10/10. Great piano ostinato (AKA riff) and evil vocals from Matt. The chorus is also very evil and never tires throughout the song.
2. Muscle Museum 10/10. Very intersting guitars (they sound Italian but I could be wrong) intersting vocals 'I have played in every toilet, but you just want to spoil it' and the mix of vocals and guitar at the end is pure genius. Sounds very epic.
3. Filip 7/10. I assume that this is Maverick's doing because it starts off very poppy. The chorus is okay and there is a point where it goes slow and Pink Floydy. Fortunately this is the worst song of the album.
4. Falling Down 8/10. The chorus is Pink Floydy and the rest of the song sounds Bluesey. A grower.
5. Cave 9/10. Distorted guitars, emotional vocals and an instumental part near the end showing that Muse has potential for great things.
6. Showbiz 9/10. Has a crescendo (gradually getting louder) of drums and then bursts in with screeching guitars and screeching Matt. A very good song.
7. Unintended 9/10. A quiet song that sounds all lovey. Depends what mood you are in really but Matt seems very in love with something.
8. Uno 10/10. Starts off in an explosion of distorted sound and then turns into a rocky tango getting louder in the chorus. They did say they liked Flamenco music.
9. Sober 9/10. This song makes me laugh so much when he does the keyboard solo. It sounds just like John Shuttleworth (if you know who he is you'll understand). Besides that it's a pretty cool song.
10. Escape 9/10. Matt says your unlovable, then says he doesn't care. Regardless though this song is very emotional with some decent guitaring in it.
11. Overdue 10/10. For some reason I like this song. It explodes in with loads of sound then goes quiet with Matt singing like an unhappy schoolgirl. A great song regardless of its simplicity.
12. Hate this song and I love you 8/10. A quiet and sound effect filled end. They may have overdone it a bit but Matt is singing well so that kind of balances it out.
Muse were not famous at all at this point. Therefore you know this album is trying to get your attention. Let it talk to you and you won't regret it (unless you listened to Origin of Symetry first then you may be disapointed)
Rating: - not their best album, but still great.
I've been listening to Muse for a few months, and I'm amazed by how good they are. "Showbiz," their first album, doesn't quite show how amazing they are, but it's still a great album. First off, I would have given this 4 1/2 stars if I could. The album starts off with two really good songs, "sunburn and "muscle museum." What I love about Muse is that every album has a different feel to it. In this album the songs aren't quite polished as much as they are in their other albums. However, the songs have a cool, epic and raw feel to them. The best songs in the album are "sunburn", "muscle museum", "falling down", "showbiz", "unintended", and "uno".
Rating: - Pretty Damn Good
I randomly bought this one, knowing fairly little about the band, but I love Radiohead and Muse is some crazy mix of Radiohead and something I cannot put my finger on. I was generally very pleased with my decision.

- Muse=Awesome!!!!!!!!
This CD is amazing. It is very different from their other albums, but it is still great! Best songs: Sunburn, Muscle Museum, Fillip, Cave, Showbiz, and Uno.
Rating: - Where the greatness began
Muse is easily one of the best bands of the last 10 years and this is where they got their start. I would check out their other albums first as this is more for the already seasoned fan, but it's still a great album.
