Muse released the video for their new single, ‘Aftermath’, this afternoon - and it’s pretty much broken their fans, Gigwise reports.

The video, “the result of Muse’s on-going creative collaborations with Japanese director Tekken”, is the tale of a young man who enlists in the army, told in the style of a flip-book.

The man leaves his family behind in order to join the war, and - as Rolling Stone reports - “finds himself broken by the brutality and destruction on the front.”
