MTV’s EXIT campaign is counting down the days until they launch a modern day slavery-themed music video with British rock band Muse. The video, based on the band’s song “MK Ultra” from their The Resistance album will be unveiled in full, September 17 through MTV EXIT’s website and on MTV’s television channels.

This will be the third music video in a series of anti-slavery PSAs from MTV. Radiohead’s “All I Need” was the first one, back in 2008. The Killers followed up last year, with “Good Night, Travel Well.”

Here’s a teaser of Muse’s video:
