Knights of Malta

"Knights of Malta" is the third single by The Smashing Pumpkins from their 2018 studio album, Shiny and Oh So Bright - Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.

Although released to digital stores on November 9, 2018, the song was first shared secretly on November 7, 2018. On the band's Instagram account, two photos were posted containing a lyric from the song. When the Instagram "Slumber" filter was applied to the photos, a hidden message was revealed. The first read "www.knightsof" and the second read "malta.live". Combined, it formed the URL of a site where the song could be heard via an embedded private YouTube video.
