Where Matt Bellamy‘s going he might not need roads, but it appears he’ll need a guitar.

The Muse frontman stars in a Back to the Future-inspired video promoting the latest model from his Manson Guitars company, the DL-OR. The clip finds Bellamy wearing Marty McFly’s signature red puffer vest as he drives his own DeLorean to October 26, 2021, the day the DL-OR launches.

We can only assume that the DL-OR name is also a reference to the DeLorean.

Bellamy’s love for Back to the Future shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to anyone who’s seen Muse’s “Pressure” video. In fact, the band’s latest album, 2018’s Simulation Theory, is basically a love letter to ’80s sci-fi movies.
