Azealia Banks – “Van Vogue”
When you’re a beautiful woman, it really only takes some running water and choice close-ups to make an entertaining video. Now somebody get Azealia a towel.
Darlingside – “Terrible Things”
This video from Northampton, MA natives Darlingside plays like a depressing, self-loathing version of the film Memento. Our protagonist is constantly reminded of all the bad things he’s ever done via polaroids.
Fang Island – “Sisterly”
Tune in to the weirdest public access television station you’ve ever seen. What would you expect with a toddler behind the control panel?
Japandroids – “The House That Heaven Built”
Few bands could make a simple performance video look so damn fun. The belligerent and drunk girl at the very end even manages to voice her love for Japandroids in between dry heaves.
Jens Lekman – “I Know What Love Isn’t”
Jens Lekman and co. plug in and transport into the matrix in their latest video. Or at least that’s what it looks like, thanks to the all-white backdrop. Thankfully for all of us he chose the red pill.
Juiceboxxx – “Expressway To The Darkness”
We’re not quite sure where exactly Milwaukee’s Juiceboxxx is traveling to in his latest video, but we’re pretty certain we don’t want to go there.
Kanye West – “I Wish You Would/Cold”
If I was ever lost in a dark, narrow underground tunnel, running into Rick Ross and DJ Khaled would not be high on my wish list.
Nude Beach – “Walkin’ Down My Street”
There’s nothing like a good house party. Let’s just hope the dudes from Nude Beach had help cleaning up all that spilt beer the next morning.
Poliça – “Dark Star”
Here, frontwoman Channy Leaneagh proves that you don’t need an elaborate wardrobe to look cool. Sometimes, a hoodie will do just fine.
Sigur Rós – “Varðeldur”
Never has performance art seemed so creepy. This latest clip from our favorite Icelanders features a lone red-headed woman moving erratically in a room with a suspicious red stain on the wall.
