The definitive edition of Muse's world-conquering third album, remastered and expanded for its 20th anniversary. Released in 2003, Absolution topped the UK charts and spawned four Top 20 singles — Time Is Running Out, Hysteria, Sing For Absolution and Butterflies And Hurricanes — cementing Muse as one of the biggest rock bands on the planet. This deluxe box set, overseen by original album producer Rich Costey, features the full remastered album across two 12" silver vinyl LPs, plus a third clear 12" vinyl of previously unreleased bonus material including live recordings and demos. Also includes a 40-page casebound book with debossed cover detailing, housed in a silver foiled slipcase. On Warner Records.

The bonus material makes a genuinely compelling case for this edition: never-before-released demo versions of Hysteria and Falling Away With You, stripped-back vocal and keyboard-only takes of Apocalypse Please and Butterflies & Hurricanes, and live recordings from the Wiltern Theater, Earl's Court, the Antic Arena in Vienne and the Columbiahalle in Berlin. The box also includes an in-depth new interview with the band about the making of the album, plus a Q&A with Rich Costey.

Box contents: 2 × 12" silver vinyl LPs (remastered album) / 1 × 12" clear vinyl LP (bonus material) / 2 × CDs / 40-page casebound book / silver foiled slipcase
