Advantages: Great show, bargain price Disadvantages: Missing a few tracks
I have been a Muse fan since 2003 and the release of "Absolution". I have since seen them live 7 times, including the 16th June 2007 at Wembley Stadium.
So, as you would gather, I was looking forward to this DVD for a long long time. It was originally supposed to come out last November, and got pushed back to 17th March 08.
It comes in a standard double CD case, rather than a DVD case. You'll find this on the music album charts, rather than the ... ...and a DVD from the 17th. Prices vary depending on where you buy it from. Your best bet is probably Play.com - free delivery and only £10.99. Well worth the money.
Let's start with the menu: You can "Play all", or select a track, view the gallery, or view various settings.
Pressing "Play all", we see an overhead shot of the stadium, taken by helicopter on the night. This then cuts to the middle of the stadium where Muse are making an impressive ...

Advantages: Brilliant you can feel the atmosphere that was inside the stadium on the day Disadvantages: Plug In Baby doesn't feature on the CD
Muse live at Wembley was probably the best gig I have ever been to, having seen them twice already I had high expectations and they still managed to blow me away, so you can imagine my delight when they finally released this CD/DVD.
Disc one is simply a CD of some of the songs they performed. From the beginning to end you can almost feel the atmosphere there was in the stadium over the two days.
Muse pull out all the stops and the CD kicks off ... ...normal from Wembley Stadium. Throughout the CD you can feel the passion in the songs. The best track on the album for me has to 'Unintended', the song is quite an old one but is such an emotional song and you can feel the emotion that was running through the stadium on the day.
The second disc is a DVD of the performance, again on the DVD you can feel the atmosphere as almost 100,000 people go absolutely mental when Muse start with Knights of Cydonia.

Advantages: Muse at their best, almost all their great hits, 'Best live band' Captured perfectly Disadvantages: The need to buy the cd to recieve the dvd.
Capturing the Wembley atmosphere essence perfectly this dvd is a fantastic follow up to their previous award winning hullaballoo. Countless cameras allow the viewer to feel as if they were at the concert, ontop of this we see Matt playing some of Muses' most famous songs, including extended versions additional solos and a great set up.
The Cd is also amazing, for either a first muse album or to add to your collection of them all, it offers some ...

Quick review of HAARP (Live From Wembley/+DVD) - Muse Review ofHAARP (Live From Wembley/+DVD) - Museby
AJUK
Yet another otherwise perfectly good album ruined by the loudness war, over compression and near constant clipping of the sound means that unless your one of those chavs who likes to listen to music through a mobile on the bus then, don't bother with it,

Advantages: Great for those wishing to relive the gig, good for those wishing they were there Disadvantages: Would be good as a double CD/DVD rather than two seperate commodities
This CD is valued to those who were at the Wembley gig last year, where history was made as Muse were the first band to play at the all new Wembley stadium. I was not there, but still I have this recording of the two gigs that took place there and cannot deny that the atmosphere that projects through the CD makes me wish I was there. Muse are a band that sound amazing live, their albums do not do them justice to the show that you whiteness when seeing ... ...New Born, Starlight, Knights of Cydonia, and even some of the oldies that are not reprieved that often. All in all, I believe it's a must have for those who were there and an essential for those who weren't to get a glimmer of what all the fuss was about. Highly recommended. ...

Additional notes
Album Notes: With a title that nods to frontman Matthew Bellamy's scientific obsessions, H.A.A.R.P. (which stands for "High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program") presents the U.K. alt-rock act Muse in concert at London's Wembley Stadium. Much of the set list is drawn from 2006's acclaimed BLACK HOLES & REVELATIONS, with standout tracks including the sweepingly cinematic "Knights of Cydonia" and the slinky, sinister "Supermassive Black Hole."
Album Reviews: Kerrang (Magazine) (p.51) - "Featuring a spotless setlist, HAARP boasts power most bands could only dream of....It's quite simply, a fantastic document of a fantastic band, playing a fantastic show."
