I know there's a whole list available on musewiki.org, but judging by interviews and such I have come up with these bands as each member's favorite or most influential band:

Matt - Rage Against the Machine
Chris - The Beach Boys
Dom - Queen

I am very unsure on The Beach Boys for Chris, but from the little I've heard/seen in interviews they seem to be his favorite, or among them.

Does anyone have a better idea on their biggest influences as individuals?

Myself and Hannah are creating a 'Guide to Muse' for here and I remember Matt has a lot of classical music influences. Dom and Matt are huge Rage fans and Chris likes Korn.

I heard Dom was, I wasn't sure about the rest of the band. I am a huge fan of them as well, they're new stuff is a bit iffy though. Their peak was definitely White Pony.
