ISIS - Holy Tears - Makes every single Tool video look dumb and cheesy. Brilliant.

"Dance Floor Dale," the music video for 'Parisian Goldfish' by Flying Lotus, directed by Eric Wareheim. So hilarious and disturbing. And NSFW by the way.

This is like my friend who thinks he's the king shit cause he makes a big deal out of not watching TV. Then he says stuff like "they caught Saddam Hussein?" or "wait, when did Heath Ledger die?"

I don't watch TV except for the news periodically and Coronation Street. :rockon:

Radiohead - House of Cards

The song is boring as fuck, interesting video though.

Videos involving traveling through a plethora of random, mystical 2D crap are really starting to get on my nerves.

yeah i sifted through like 10 of them and picked out the mercury rev video, but you're right that whole thing is pretty stale. bjork video is borderline but pretty well-executed so it gets away with it, but in a 'let's hope this caps all that stuff off for a while' kind of way
