Something Awful and PYF have always found and shared some cool music videos, so I thought it might be good to have a dedicated thread to share in. If you can, try sharing a gif or a description of the MV in question! I'll start with some: Studio Killers - Ode to the Bouncer ![]() http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo-EmtXbFRg Studio Killers - Eros and Apollo ![]() ![]() http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGjHsLnUO1U I really love the Studio Killers in general, but their 2D/3D crossover music videos pretty much sells it for me. Ramona Falls - I Say Fever ![]() ![]() http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4tMt1TiaVE Cut-out like music video, kind of reminds me of Miami Vice. --Let's try not to derail the thread on what good music is and isn't.

Good and trippy? Got to have some Hifana. 'Wamono' has to be my favourite, but they're all good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY6iyZzpamg

Busta Rhymes- Dangerous http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJUk45l4h8c I find the combination of super-wide-angle lenses and jerky stopmotionesque movements really neat!

Wolfgang Gartner - Illmerica http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_rQ6Av0gMY Not really trippy but certainly good and funny. Weird mashup of US history over sweet electro beats.

The Music Scene -- Blockhead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEYRBTZWu8U I can't even really explain it; it's just sort of an animated acid trip.

Tame Impala - Mind Mischief a young Magneto engages on a hot-for-teacher fantasy, which turns into a wonderful psychedelic dream. Sex, drugs, and lonliness. Watch it. edit: ![]() ![]()

Death Pits of Crap posted:Ken Ishii's "Extra" is pretty sweet: I remember seeing this on MTV's Amp like 2-3am when i was younger. That show was my first intro to techno/electronica.

Venetian Snares - Szamár Madár Goes under trippy. It's pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PBeKzVhWHY Birdy Nam Nam - The Parachute Endings Another trippy one. Abstract but less so than the last one, which isn't saying much http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCHM1do5Vqw and no music video thread would be complete without the classic The Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatrist http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLrnkK2YEcE another good one from The Avalanches: The Avalanches - Since I Left You http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpqm-05R2Jk

Birdy Nam Nam - Goin' In It reminds me really strongly of parts of Yellow Submarine, also I'm pretty sure this is what it's like to make love while on LSD.

Hyacinthe by Thomas Fersen http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2...ic#.USE8D6WUQ8I I have no clue what it's about since I don't speak french, but the animation reminds me of a childrens book (kinda like Roald Dahl). Hard 'n' Phirm's "Pi", a parody of those after school kids shows (includes literal math wizards) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mfr7xG6smhU Chiba City Blues fucked around with this message at Feb 17, 2013 around 20:29 |

MIA - Bad Girls http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yuqxl284cg I was so amazed when I learned that the car tricks in this video were real. Normally I'm not a fan of hipster fashion but those niqabs are pretty sweet and Morocco is gorgeous. Armi Ja Danny - I Want To Love You Tender http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPnGPIMUnus I just want to know where the dancers got their choreography. This is the weirdest loving video I've ever seen. Lordi - Hard Rock Hallelujah http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6Xl9tBWt54 More proof that Finland is weird, even if this video is way better than the above one. Dschinghis Khan - Moskau http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQAKRw6mToA German power rangers make a tribute to the capital of Russia with a strange dance.

Dead Blue Sky posted:Rockerjoker - "America" Front 242 - Headhunter http://vimeo.com/19877744 Language barriers make for the most surreal music videos. Nosia - Machine Gun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAO-lzl3vVQ Visually one of my favorite muic videos, I think it's a really neat use of a fairly simple idea. Rammstein - Mein Herz Brennt http://vimeo.com/55356626 Reeeeeally reminds me of Silent Hill meets a Visual Kei music video

Not the trippiest, but the art direction in the Estate Sale Sign video by The Mountain Goats is pretty cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZiOad87Jg8 You can always rely on Efterklang videos to have some nice imagery: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bTlTODgLDA And of course, there's the instant-classic, beautifully shot probably-best-music-video in years effort by Woodkid; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSkb0kDacjs

David Bowie-Ashes to Ashes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wnc7b1utU3Y Ashes to Ashes was a pretty iconic video at the time and also one of the most expensive music videos as well, coming up to about 250,000 euro (and that's in '80's money). The video is suppose to be about Bowie trying to overcome drug abuse and the song also revisits the "Major Tom" character from Bowie's earlier song Space Oddity. Speaking of... David Bowie-Space Oddity http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcyuKUtgyZ8 This one isn't really as dramatic as the last one. It just has Bowie playing acoustic with shots of some machinery.
