Muse have been getting into the Halloween spirit by releasing a brand new special track and video to mark the occasion.

After a week of teasing their fans about a new release, the rock trio have dropped a cover of The Cramps track "New Kind of Kick" debuting a new sound in the process.

The lyric video shows them embracing a different era style-wise also with the band kitted out in 1950s leather with slicked back hair. In it, they perform in front of horror icon Elvira.

"New Kind of Kick" is the band's first material since they released seventh record Drones in 2015. The British rock band recently ended a world arena and stadium tour which included a stop-off at this year's Glastonbury Festival where they headlined the Friday night.

Muse's live director has claimed that their next world tour will see the Matt Bellamy-fronted band levitate on magnets.

The Cramps were an American punk rock band that were active from 1976 to 2009.
