Muse: Absolution version on vinyl 2LP in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company Warner Bros. Records in cooperation with Helium 3 on 10. July 2015.

"I don't think Absolution is necessarily a religious word," noted Muse frontman Matt Bellamy about the title of their third studio album. "I think it just suggests that making music is a way of understanding things." On the 2003 album, the British trio tackled heavy topics - including the war in Iraq and the fear of societal breakdown. Intense lyrics are balanced by epic arrangements that blend art rock, progressive metal and orchestral flourishes such as "Stockholm Syndrome," "Time Is Running Out," "Butterflies and Hurricanes" and "Hysteria." Listeners responded to the band's high ambitions; the album topped the UK album chart and went gold in America, earning Muse a huge following in the US. Anyone who enjoys dark, dramatic music played with unbridled grandeur should get ABSOLUTION.Review by C. Böhm in Audio 10/03: "Between the heartbreaking melodrama, the ferocious instrumental onslaught, the unprecedented choruses and the dramatic crashes, everything is in, everything is classy. Absolution granted."

Album spans genres Rock and Alternative rock. 180g Remastered Vinyl.
