The album title derives from the 1994 book ''[[Hyperspace (book)|Hyperspace]]'' by the theoretical physicist [[Michio Kaku]], which suggests the title ''The Origin of Symmetry'' for a future book about the discovery of [[supersymmetry]], a reference to ''[[On the Origin of Species]]''. According to the Muse songwriter, [[Matt Bellamy]]: "Everyone's been writing about the origin of life so now they'll start looking at the origin of symmetry; there's a certain amount of stability in the universe and to find out where it originates from would be to find out if God exists."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rocketbabydolls.com/rocksoundjuly.html |title=English Articles |work=archive.is |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020324163543/http://www.rocketbabydolls.com/rocksoundjuly.html |archive-date=24 March 2002 }}</ref> Whereas the ''Showbiz'' lyrics had "wallowed in heartbroken angst", Bellamy's lyrics moved to "sci-fi surrealism".<ref name=":0" />
