Muse Share 1980s Horror-Themed Video for New Song “Thought Contagion”

Single Out Now Digitally

Feb 15, 2018 By Christopher Roberts Muse

British trio Muse have shared a new song, “Thought Contagion,” via its video. Lance Drake directed the horror- and science fiction-themed video, which seems to take place in the 1980s and ends with a “Thriller”-like dance routine featuring various monsters. Watch it below.

Last year Muse shared a video for another new song, “Dig Down,” which was also directed by Lance Drake and also had a retro sci-fi vibe, with frontman Matt Bellamy looking a bit like 1980s computer generated cult character Max Headroom.

Bellamy had this to say about “Thought Contagion” in a press release: “The meaning of the song ‘Thought Contagion’ is about how other people’s thoughts, ideas and beliefs can sometimes infect your mind, get into your head and change the way you think yourself.”
