{"product_id":"black-holes-revelations-limited-edition-cd-dvd","title":"Black Holes \u0026 Revelations (Limited Edition CD+DVD)","description":"Amazon.com\n\nSounding like the confident, ambitious superstars they already are in their native UK, Muse follows up their breakthrough Absolution with an album that tempers its unabashed grandiosity and apocalyptic obsessions with a smart pop groove. The minimalist angst of the opening \"Take A Bow\" may bridge the goth-pop conceits of the collection's successful predecessor, but those expectations are quickly kicked aside by \"Starlight\"'s synth-pop bliss, the falsettoed, space-disco thump of \"Supermassive Black Hole\" and the chilly, New Wave redux sheen of \"Map of the Problematic\"; so much for being held hostage to those early Radiohead comparisons. Indeed, on the lilting \"Soldier's Poem\" vocalist\/guitarist Matthew Bellamy cannily channels Freddie Mercury while \"Assassin\" pulses with the familiar metallic nerve and lyrical dread of Muse past. But by the time \"Knights of Cydonia\" erupts in a wrenching, melodramatic climax that somehow fuses ELP, Davie Allan, Procul Harum and Chris Isaak with enough giddy abandon to suspend disbelief, Muse have long since proved their case as genre-be-damned rock world-beaters. This limited edition set also features an hour-long bonus DVD that chronicles the trio's headlining Absolution tour set\/de facto coronation at the Glastonbury Festival in 2004. Also features are four other live tracks recorded that same years in venues that range from London's massive Earls Court to a tiny Cincinnati club, performances that well chronicle the ambitious trio's ambitious musical ascent and recent past. --Jerry McCulley\n\nProduct Description\n\nIn 2004, U.K. favorite Muse broke through in the U.S. with Absolution and major performances across America that won legions of new fans. In 2006, Muse takes a bold new step with Black Holes And Revelations, a powerful, upbeat epic album that takes the band’s music to a whole dimension. Once again co-produced by Rich Costey (Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave), Muse incorporates influences from electronica and Prince to pure pop. The album is sure to be a revelation to those still unfamiliar with the 2005 Brit award winner for Best Live Act who headlines this summer’s Reading and Leeds festivals. LIMITED EDITION: The added DVD features their headlining show at the Glastonbury festival. Artwork for the regular and limited edition was designed by Storm Thorgerson (Pink Floyd \u0026amp; Led Zeppelin).\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000FVQYZY\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000FVQYZY.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Muse\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
