The Conspiracy Theory – Memphis Flyer

Music Video Monday is controlling your mind.

“MK Ultra” is the new video from The Conspiracy Theory, the Memphis rockers who know what They are planning. The title of the song, which is the third single from their 2019 album None The Wiser, refers to the infamous Cold War CIA program which sought to use LSD and other psychedelics to brainwash unsuspecting people. Director Brett Trail told the disturbing story using Furbys, the classic interactive toys which, let’s face it, have always been kind of creepy.

Gaze deeply into the eyes of the Furby. Its third eye flashes messages — you might even call them “instructions” — which bypass the conscious mind and burrow deep into your psyche. Listen to the Furby. Trust the Furby. Obey the Furby. Only total submission to the Furby will bring true happiness.

It’s Music Video Tuesday. Trust no one.

Thanks to the Labor Day holiday, we’re celebrating this week’s Music Video Monday on Tuesday. Jump through the looking glass with The Conspiracy Theory, a trio of Illuminated rockers who are here to tell you the hard, shocking truth that lurks behind the consensual hallucination. With their song “The Serpent Kings”, the Theory point the cardboard guitar firmly at the culprits for all of the world’s ills: The alien reptiles running things. How did these Memphis rockers pull back to the veil of lies? Who knows, but their music video is lots of fun.
