Medusa is the second studio album by Dutch darkwave band Clan of Xymox. It was released in November 1986 by 4AD. Founding member Pieter Nooten would re-record the songs "After the Call" and "Theme I" on his 1987 debut solo album Sleeps with the Fishes, following a brief split from the band.
Medusa is seen by some critics as the group's career high point. Sounds described Medusa as an "overriding achievement every track sounds like the finale to a brooding epic overture".
Melody Maker wrote, "Sleek, efficient, even dramatic, Xymox understand the value of a direct understatement a bright flash of hope in these blackout days".
