Most music videos, especially modern ones, are pretty boring.

A lot of people have mentioned OkGo already, so I'm going to mention New Lands by Justice's MV is a pretty fun one

Chevelle All Right I Get It

I was always fond of the video for Sugar Water by Cibo Matto. Didn't necessarily care for the song, but the video was directed by Michel Gondry.

The Stage - Avenged Sevenfold

First few times I heard the song, it was just on in the background and I wasn't paying much attention to the lyrics. Like... okay, we're watching you perform on a stage? Weird thing to write a song about, but whatev; sounds cool so screw it.

Finally pulled up the video and it went from "lol marionette puppets!" to "Oh... OOOH. Hoooooly shit!" pretty damn quick.

Now it gives me shivers every time it comes on.

Emperor's new clothes

Okay, this should be one of the more popular songs amongst indie producers:

  1. WARNING×WARNING×WARNING by Akatsuki Records https://youtu.be/7UubKYqEy3s // https://piped.video/7UubKYqEy3s

  2. The Creator by Akatsuki Records https://youtu.be/9YFZ_7yPId4 // https://piped.video/9YFZ_7yPId4

I'm more into music tracks rather than in 'music videos', though.

Adrenaline by Kontra K The video definitely does not show the artist himself surfing a Berlin S-Bahn in broad daylight.

The Brothers Quay aesthetic captured in Manson’s Beautiful People video is wonderful.

I know the saddest one is Modest Mouse Little Motel, don't watch it.

Yeasayer was always trying to go above and beyond with their music and storytelling. It still saddens me to be reminded they broke up.

I am Chemistry was peak for them, taking on a topic I never thought I'd see in music.

But it didn't stop there. The bizarre use of claymation to tell this story of theirs, in the music video cemented it as my favorite of all time.
