STARLIGHT - MUSE
With 2006 fifth effort “Black Holes and Revelations,” Muse delivers an onslaught of progressive stadium rock hits, earning the Brit trio a lofty top 10 view on the U.S. album chart and second consecutive No. 1 U.K. album. On “Starlight,” lead Matthew Bellamy’s vocals effortlessly rip through an introductory barrage of percussion and bass and seamlessly glide atop heavily synthesized arpeggios and glimmering scales. Having already nearly topped the modern rock playlist, “Starlight,” with its wave of refreshment, is primed for mainstream acceptance. Muse has hit its intergalactic stride.
