Really hard to believe this is a debut album. Very solid. Although I don't feel like Muse has gotten better, maybe just the edges rounded off a bit.

Decent debut laying some foundation of their sound (which lifts a bit from the radiohead template and would become more bombastic later) but not the most interesting album save for the best track "muscle museum". Muse would continue to improve from here.

Probably Muse's weakest effort but still really good. Worth it just for Falling Down and Unintended.

I only recently discovered Muse - sort of late on the bandwagon on that one. Got all their album at once. I did not want to like "Showbiz" because of the title, it imposed itself. To me this is the one that sounds the freshest (as first albums often do). But all their albums are great.

This is Muse's weakest, but it still gets 95/100 because Muse are such an amazing group. I love Muscle Museum, Showbiz and Unintended. The weakest song is probably Falling Down. But it still great.
