Composition
The track has been described as electronic rock,[3] dance-rock,[4] alternative rock[5] and pop.[5] The synthesizer work on the album has been described as "ominous" and John Carpenter-esque.[3] The track also experiments with "frazzled, spooky distortion",[6] and features organs throughout.[7][4] Lyrically, the song is about "the claustrophobia of an abusive relationship".[8]
Music video
The music video, directed by Tom Teller, features a group of masked figures sneaking into a house only to discover that it is haunted. The video features many references to horror media such as IT, Friday the 13th, Poltergeist, The Shining,[9][1][10] and a nod to Corey Taylor's Slipknot mask, who was an influence on the new album.[2][11][12] Band members Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme, and Dominic Howard appear as framed paintings in the background.[9]
