One of the top English acts of the 00s, Muse made that important North American breakthrough that is vital for any U.K. band to have for Hall of Fame consideration. It made perfect sense for Muse to break through as they have a musical style that appealed to Alternative lovers and the Classic Rock lovers who can hear the Progressive elements in their songs. As this is a band that continues to evolve this is a group developing a strong resume for Cleveland, but this is by no means a slam dunk.
