Editorial Reviews:

The fan base for Muse grows with every release. 2006 s Black Holes And Revelations broke into the U.S. Top 10 while hitting #1 in the U.K. and much of Europe, where it sold 1 million copies and was #3 on NME's Albums Of The Year list. A multiple BRIT Award winner for Best Live Act,
Muse then staged two massive sold-out performances at 90,000-seat Wembley Stadium in London last June, which increasingly are recognised as amongst the definitive live moments of the year. The best performances from those concerts, as well as bonus backstage footage, are presented on the CD/DVD set HAARP. The concerts once again demonstrated the raw power and unquenchable ambition of one of the UK's most successful long-term bands and one of, if not the, greatest, most ambitious live act in the world at the present time.

Summary: Great, but a drop off from studio albums
Comment: This is a great album. The music of Muse is going to be great no matter how you listen to it. I tend to prefer studio albums to live ones, which is the only reason I gave this a 4 instead of a 5. So I think the degree to which one would enjoy this album has to do mostly with whether you like live or studio. In the end, it is still a great collection of songs from one of the greatest bands around. Definitely worth buying.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wow.
Comment: I ordered this thinking that I would enjoy watching one of the best live bands preforming live. I was astounded. Muse is my favorite band and they are ten times better live on this DVD. If you like Muse at all then you will absolutly love this. There is a lot of varity in the song choices so you will never feel bored.
Customer Rating:
Summary: The Video is good, but the audio is a little disappointing.
Comment: I was very excited while I waited for the package, because I had already seen this product at FNAC store, at Strasbourg with to much publicity. However, when I started to listen the video, the experience was very sad. I think this product is an important and necessary article for Muse fans, bad for casual costumers, there are another options if you are looking for live music in this genre.

Summary: I know, because I was there
Comment: It's quite disappointing to see some people dismissing this as another live album/DVD not deserving of attention.
This is a true reflection of the energy, dynamism, creativity and imaginsation of MUSE. I'm old enough to remember "Live & Dangerous" being considered one of the best live albums, but listening to it now it sounds bland compared to MUSE at Wembley.
The camera work and editing is terrific and completely reflects the atmosphere and energy in the band and the crowd. The frantic cutting in Stockholm Syndrome reminds me of the mosh pit.
I suspect those not impressed have never seen them live. Go see them then revisit the DVD. If it doesn't light up your eyes then you have no soul.
CD: There isn't a duff track
DVD: I can skip Soldiers Poem. Don't miss Knights of Cydonia, Feeling Good, Blackout, Plug In Baby, Stockholm Syndrome
Customer Rating:
Summary: Muse = Best live act.
Comment: Ever went to your favorite artist's concert and was disappointed to find out they don't sound well live as they do on CD? NOT IF MUSE IS YOUR FAVORITE! Those guys probably sound better live than they do on CD. 100% serious ... & this DVD proves it. Not only do they sound good live, but they're also entertaining!!! Watching this concert will definitely show how much energy they have, although unfortunately, some of the slower songs tend to get boring.
Songs I personally skip:
Soldiers Poem
Unintended
That's it!!!! If you're a Muse fan, you should definitely buy this!
The only bad thing I've got to say about this is the audio CD. Why in hell did they not include all songs from the concert? WHY?
That is all I've got to say for now. Maybe if I don't feel lazy sometime later I'll review the performances song by song.
