British rockers MUSE have more than 3 decades on their clock. Impressive.
The band fronted by singer/guitarist/songwriter MATT BELLAMY
released their 2nd LP ORIGIN SYMMETRY on 17 July 2001, today
25 years ago.
The album title derives from the 1994 book Hyperspace by the theoretical
physicist Michio Kaku, which suggests the title The Origin of Symmetry for a
future book about the discovery of supersymmetry.
#3 in the UK.
NME – 2001
Bellamy said: “Everyone’s been writing about the origin of life
so now they’ll start looking at the origin of symmetry; there’s a
certain amount of stability in the universe and to find out where
it originates from would be to find out if God exists.”
