Muse's have scored 16 Number Ones across the globe following the release of new album 'The Resistance'.

The band have topped the charts as far afield as Australia, Korea, Mexico, Switzerland, New Zealand and at at home in the UK, where they clocked up the biggest first week's sales of the year so far.

The album is Number Three in the US.

The group who embark on a UK arena tour with The Pig Pink in November, have also announced they will be releasing more tickets to the previously sold-out shows after production changes freed up more space.

Sheffield Arena (November 4)
Liverpool Echo Arena (5)
Glasgow SECC (9)
Birmingham NIA (10)
London 02 Arena (12, 13)
