BHAR was played in the shop (Saturn) where I bought the new album. And Stockholm Syndrome was used in a Eurosport trailor some weeks ago, so it might already have been mentioned here.
You can't say that they are unknown here. But Stefan Raab (German entertainer, quite famous especially among teenagers and young adults) does not know Muse, haha, and I think he believes himself to be informed about music. He had Status Quo in his show and asked them which young bands they like. As they answered "Muse are great" he asked "What? Who?"
