Too few bands have this level of ambition life affirming. (Q Magazine)

MUSE announce two massive shows for 2010 at Londons Wembley Stadium and Manchesters Lancashire County Cricket Club. The band whose latest album The Resistance reached the No. 1 spot in 21 countries around the world and entered the American charts at No. 3, were named Best Act In The World Today at Q Magazines annual ceremony last month.

The band are currently touring the UKs Arenas including two nights at Londons 02 this week. All 85,000 tickets for this tour sold out in under half an hour. It goes without saying that Muse are in no doubt Britains most celebrated and ambitious live act of their generation. When they played the newly built Wembley Stadium back in 2007 The Guardians commented, Few are more suited than MUSE to take on what Pele described as the cathedral of football" in a 5/5 review.

Muse are not in the least embarrassed about the virtues of old-fashioned showmanship, but their secret is the way they push everything a little further than you expect, until is seems not so much familiar as boldly eccentric. (The Telegraph, 5 stars)

Masters of the theatrical live experience, Muse are back and on form. (The Independent 4 stars) (less info)
