Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

It takes a certain sort of band to fill Wembley stadium, one unafraid to embrace scale, flirt with pomposity, and perform the odd grand gesture. Watching Muse's live CD/DVD H.A.A.R.P--recorded over two nights in June 2007--you're left wondering if Wembley is quite big enough to hold them. From the grand opening, when Muse ascend from an underground chamber and walk down a central ramp flanked by men in yellow chemical splash suits to Matt Bellamy's lengthy, florid turns at the grand piano, no opportunity is missed to make H.A.A.R.P seem anything less than a spectacle. Shot in high definition, the camera-work is as snappy and dynamic as any movie blockbuster, with special attention to the crowd, who are picked out with sometimes breathtaking detail. Fans may gripe over the tracklisting--the DVD has been edited down, meaning four tracks, including "Bliss" have been left on the cutting floor–-but casuals should be satisfied with the selection: there's the hits ("Supermassive Black Hole", "Knights of Cydonia") and on the DVD, a noble rendition of Nina Simone's "Feeling Good".--Louis Pattison


CD Description

This first full live album (discounting 2002's part-studio 'Hullabaloo') from the epic Devonshire prog rockers is the follow-up to 2006's hugely successful studio set 'Black HolesAnd Revelations'. Recorded at their massive Wembley Stadiumshows in June 2007, this CD/DVD package captures the band, who have always been renowned for their live work, in blistering form. The title, too, becomes Muse's reputation - HAARPis the US military's High-frequency Active Auroral ResearchProgram, which has long been a bete noire of conspiracy theorists everywhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars Special Edition / Standard Edition?, 16 April 2008
By Hunter "C" (Carmarthen) - See all my reviews
Just to make it clear, the difference between this version and the standard version are:

1: This version comes in a deluxe card box rather than the standard jewel case.

2: This version also contains 3 limited edition cards (one of each band member).

THIS VERSION DOES NOT HAVE EXTRA TRACKS AS SOME PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING

therefore I would say that unless you are an absolute fanatic who has to have all the limited edition stuff then the standard edition is fine. On the Dvd itself the concert is excellent but a bit disappointed that the "backstage footage" is only 10 mins long. good though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculous... but sublime, 20 Mar 2008
By L. Donaghy (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Yes, it's completely over-the-top. The stage set is designed to resemble a government research facility in Alaska (hence the name), features spotlights dressed up as satellite dishes and the band come onstage by rising up in the middle of the crowd.

The DVD is gorgeous visually, really showing off the colourful light show and background videos. (Muse have sussed out that audiences like to have more to look at for two hours than three men with instruments.) It also makes a fair stab at capturing what it is like to be at a gig, with lots of panning crowd shots helping to demonstrate the scale of the concert - and the ecstatic crowd.

As for the music, most of their songs are far better live than in the studio. These are particularly good performances, by a band known as an outstanding live act. For example, Invincible and Starlight are slightly-cloying ballads on the radio, but turn into huge anthems live.

The bonus footage really just consists of the band's approach to the stage and coming off afterwards. I certainly found it strange to realise that 20 feet from where I stood, Matt Bellamy was telling someone to turn off the music, but I'm not sure how interesting that would be for anyone else.

It's Wembley in a nutshell: both nights, in one form or another, from different points of view. There's no way it could have failed to be entertaining. Five well-deserved stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best live performance on DVD, 5 Mar 2008
By Matthew (Flitwick, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Wembley Stadium, June 16th. A day I'll always remember, from queuing outside the brand new giant stadium from 9 in the morning to eventually getting inside at 1 30, the whole day felt surreal.

As soon as Muse exploded onto the stage with Knights Of Cydonia, the trio made the entire stadium their home of which they showed the audience the a night to remember, the set, lasting an hour an a half including all their greatest hits to date, from plug in baby and supermassive black hole to starlight and feeling good. The atmosphere was pure brilliance and this DVD will be the best way of understanding just how special that night was.

This Deluxe Edition Box Set, includes a set of 3 postcards and additional exclusive backstage footage.

Must buy for all music lovers, and bands that want to know how to make a presence on the stage.
