Black Holes and Revelations, the latest studio album from Muse, has been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America, having shipping 500,000 units. It is the British rock trio’s second gold album in the U.S., following 2003’s Absolution, which was certified gold last year. Both albums have also recently been certified gold in Canada.
A note from Muse: "The MP3 floating around on the message boards at the moment is a track we recorded with Mike Skinner a few months ago. The track was the result of a late night jam session and something we did for a bit of a laugh featuring a blues riff we have been playing live recently upon which Skinner recorded some vocals. It is not intended to be a serious release so we are happy for it to be leaked around unofficially. Hope you enjoy, Cheers."
The visual portion of HAARP — the new live CD/DVD from British trio Muse — will be screened in movie theaters in four select U.S. cities on April 1st, the day the package is released by Warner Bros. Records. An additional screening will be held in Boulder, CO, on April 11th.
Filmed at London’s Wembley Stadium on June 17, 2007, the DVD captures the exuberant spectacle of the band performing in front of a sold-out crowd of nearly 75,000 ecstatic fans, while the CD features audio from the band’s sold-out show on the previous night, June 16th.
