Information

The first recording by Muse. Matt either spelt his name wrong or 'Mat' was how he spelt his name at the time, (referring to the picture of the inside of the tape, where it says 'Geobell'). This demo tape was put on eBay for auction some time in 2005.[2] The final bid, and winner, paid ~500 GBP for it.[2] In one of Muse' cryptic messages, it is indicated that Howard attempted to bid for it.[3] There are multiple copies of the tape, three are known in total, and at least one is known to be in the possession of a band member.[4]

The recipient of the tape (who is thought to be one of Dom's ex-girlfriends[5]) did not wish to share the recordings, and they are therefore not available. However, short samples of three of the songs were shared and are available here.

It is thought that Geobell is short for George Bellamy, and that he helped record the demo.[6]
