Information

"Muscle Museum" was the third Muse single to be released in the UK and France, the first in the US and Benelux, and the second in Australia. Some of the original singles were hand signed by the band, on a few of them, Bellamy put Howard's phone number on the single so that fans could contact him if they dared. Howard has changed his phone number due to the increase in random people knowing it. Almost all of the vinyl singles from the original release were signed by the band, such that unsigned copies are in fact rarer.

"Muscle Museum" was re-released on both CD and vinyl in 2000. It was also to be re-released on cassette, although this was cancelled for unknown reasons. The object remains in the catalogues of several online stores although it never went on sale.[1]
