The debut album from British rockers Muse, "Showbiz," was met with a rather lukewarm reception but showcased a rock sound whose versatile productions with synthetic touches would become the hallmark of what would become one of the iconic bands of the 2000s. Matthew Bellamy's high-pitched vocals and the album's strident, powerful guitars would define the contours of a career that would ultimately reach the top of the charts. It was with "Muscle Museum" that the album finally broke through on the airwaves and achieved success.
