The discography of Muse, an English alternative rock band, consists of six studio albums, two live albums, one compilation album, three extended plays, 31 singles and 40 music videos.

The band released their debut album, Showbiz, in 1999. The album managed to break into the top 30 in the UK and Australia and went on to be certified gold in both countries. Five singles were released from Showbiz, with "Unintended" peaking the highest at number twenty.

Muse's second album was Origin of Symmetry, released in 2001. Much more successful than its predecessor, the album reached number three in the UK, where it was certified platinum. "Plug In Baby", the first single, reached number 11 in the UK and was almost equalled by the band's next single, "New Born", which peaked a position lower. A year later Muse released their first compilation album, Hullabaloo Soundtrack, which comprised one disc of B-sides and another of live performances recorded at Le Zénith in October 2001. It peaked at number ten in the UK. In 2003 the band released Absolution, which became their first number-one album when it topped the UK Albums Chart. The follow-up to Absolution was the band's most successful album so far; Black Holes & Revelations reached number one in four countries and became their first album to break into the top 100 of the Billboard 200, where it peaked at number nine. "Supermassive Black Hole" was the first single and it became the band's highest-charting single to date when it reached number four.

In 2008 the band released their first fully live (Hullabaloo Soundtrack contained one disc of live material) album; CD/DVD set HAARP documents the band's two famous performances at Wembley Stadium on 16 and 17 June 2007. The album reached number two in the UK and New Zealand and was certified silver by the BPI. The band began recording material for their fifth studio album in 2009; The Resistance was released on 14 September and peaked at number one in 19 countries. The first single from the fifth album, "Uprising", was released a week before the album, on 7 September. This was the band's most popular release in the US to date spending 20 weeks on the Hot 100, peaking at number 37 thus making it their first top 40 single in the USA.
