Muse

Muse is a popular English rock band formed in 1992, while at Teignmouth Community College in Teignmouth, Devon. Their idiosyncratic style is a blend of indie rock, progressive rock and heavy metal, with heavy influences from classical composers, especially those of the Romantic era such as Sergei Rachmaninov. The band is famed for its energetic live performances and frontman Matthew Bellamy's eccentric interests in global conspiracy, extraterrestrial life, theology and the apocalypse.
