Sobre el álbum
Con su segundo trabajo, Origin of Symmetry, de 2001, Muse se liberó de todas las comparaciones y encontró su voz definitiva. Este álbum es una obra maestra de rock progresivo y alternativo, un disco audaz, grandilocuente y experimental que los consolidó como una de las bandas más originales y técnicamente dotadas de su generación. Es venerado como su mejor obra por muchos de sus fans.
El sonido del álbum es mucho más pesado, complejo y barroco que el de su debut. Matt Bellamy da rienda suelta a su virtuosismo con riffs de guitarra inolvidables, como el de "Plug In Baby", y espectaculares arpegios de piano inspirados en la música clásica de Rachmaninoff. Asimismo, la sección rítmica, con el bajo distorsionado de Chris Wolstenholme y la potente batería de Dominic Howard, es simplemente monumental.
Temas como "New Born" o la épica "Citizen Erased" son viajes sonoros de una intensidad y una ambición extraordinarias. "Origin of Symmetry" es un clásico moderno, un disco que no solo definió el sonido de Muse, sino que elevó las expectativas de lo que una banda de rock podía llegar a ser.

Letra
Link it to the world Link it to yourself Stretch it like a birth squeeze The love for what you hide The bitterness inside Is growing like the new born When you've seen, seen Too much, too young, young Soulless is everywhere Hopeless time to roam The distance to your home Fades away to nowhere How much are you worth You can't come down to earth You're swelling up, you're unstoppable 'Cause you've seen, seen Too much, too young, young Soulless is everywhere Destroy the spineless Show me it's real Wasting our last chance To come away Just break the silence 'Cause I'm drifting away Away from you Link it to the world Link it to yourself Stretch it like it's a birth squeeze And the love for what you hide And the bitterness inside Is growing like the new born When you've seen, seen Too much, too young, young Soulless is everywhere Destroy the spineless Show me it's real Wasting our last chance To come away Just break the silence 'Cause I'm drifting away Away from you - Bliss4:12

H8 is the one for me It gives me all I need Helps me co-exist With the chill You make me sick Because I adore you so I love all the dirty tricks And twisted games you play on me Space dementia in your eyes And peace will arise And tear us apart And make us meaningless again You'll make us wanna die I'd cut your name in my heart We'll destroy this world for you I know you want me to Feel your pain Space dementia in your eyes And peace will arise And tear us apart And make us meaningless again - Hyper Music3:21
Your golden lies feed my role In this forgotten space race under my control Who's returned from the dead? Who remains? (Just to spit it in your face) You know that I don't want you And I never did I don't want you And I never will You wanted more than I was worth And you think I was scared And you needed proof Who really cares anymore? Who restrains? (Just to spit it in your face) You know that I don't love you And I never did I don't want you And I never will - Plug In Baby3:40
Letra
I've exposed your lies, baby The underneath's no big surprise Now it's time for changing And cleansing everything To forget your love My plug in baby Crucifies my enemies When I'm tired of giving My plug in baby In unbroken virgin realities Is tired of living Don't confuse Baby you're gonna lose Your own game Change me Replace the envying To forget your love My plug in baby Crucifies my enemies When I'm tired of giving My plug in baby In unbroken virgin realities Is tired of living And I've seen your loving Mine is gone And I've been in trouble - Citizen Erased7:19
Letra
Break me in Teach us to cheat And to lie, cover up What shouldn't be shared? And the truth's unwinding Scraping away At my mind Please stop asking me to describe For one moment I wish you'd hold your stage With no feelings at all Open-minded I'm sure I used to be so free Self-expressed, exhausting for all To see and to be What you want and what you need And the truth's unwinding Scraping away At my mind Please stop asking me to describe For one moment I wish you'd hold your stage With no feelings at all Open-minded I'm sure I used to be so free For one moment I wish you'd hold your stage With no feelings at all Open-minded I'm sure I used to be so free Wash me away Clean your body of me Erase all the memories They only bring us pain And I've seen all I'll ever need - Micro Cuts3:38
Letra
Hands are red with your blame Megaphone screaming my name Whimpers someone I should've loved Souls weeping above I've seen what you're doing to me Destroying puppet strings To our souls Micro waves me insane A blade cuts in your brain Sounds like forks on a plate Blackboard scratched with hate I've seen what you're doing to me Destroying puppet strings To our souls - Screenager4:20
Letra
Who's so phoney and always surrounded? Stop your screaming, no one can hear All the scars on your skin: "Post no bills" Who you were Was so beautiful Remember who, who you were Hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories Hide from your family, they won't know you now For all the holes in our souls host no thrills Who you were Was so beautiful Memories who, who you were - Darkshines4:47
Letra
Passing by you light up my darkest skies You take only seconds to draw me in So be mine and your innocence I will consume Dark shines Bringing me down Making my heart feel sore Because it's good Hold your hands up to your eyes again Hide from the scary scenes, suppress your fears So be mine and your innocence I will consume Dark shines Bringing me down Making my heart feel sore Because it's good You're dark shines Bringing me down Making my heart feel sore Because it's good Dark shines Bringing me down Making my heart feel sore Because it's good - Feeling Good3:19
Letra
Birds flying high You know how I feel Sun in the sky You know how I feel Reeds driftin' on by You know how I feel It's a new dawn It's a new day It's a new life For me And I'm feeling good Fish in the sea You know how I feel River running free You know how I feel Blossom in the trees You know how I feel It's a new dawn It's a new day It's a new life For me And I'm feeling good Dragonfly out in the sun You know what I mean, don't you know Butterflies are all havin' fun You know what I mean Sleep in peace when day is done And this old world is a new world And a bold world For me Stars when you shine You know how I feel Scent of the pine You know how I feel Yeah, freedom is mine And you know how I feel It's a new dawn It's a new day It's a new life For me Oh Freer than you Oh Feeling good - Megalomania4:37
Letra
Paradise comes at a price That I am not prepared to pay What were we built for? Could someone tell me please? The good news is, she can't have babies And wont accept gifts from me What are they for? They'll just grow up, and break the laws you've loved Take off your disguise I know that underneath It's me Useless device, it won't suffice I want a new game to play When I am gone It won't be long, before I disturb you in the dark And paradise comes at a price That I am not prepared to pay What were we built for? Will someone tell me please? Take off your disguise I know that underneath It's me
