A bit of a diversion for me. Three really strange videos (in contrasting ways) were just released. I am putting them together because of there stark differences and, well, because I can. The first two are NSFW, so watch with discretion please.

The Arcade Fire track "The Suburbs" kickoffs the album with a loving yet fearful ode to trying to find a safe haven for your children, but never quite escaping the fear. This Spike Jonze directed video accurately represents the sentiment of this song (and the album).
Klaxons are a strange band in their own way. Using a mixture of rock and electro with off key vocals, they concoct abrasive, yet at times successful, dance music. The video for "Twin Flames" is an orgy of people with no end or beginning making for a creepy vision for all of us to witness. Not for the sensitive viewer.
Seeing as the link below has been inconsistent, please click here to check it out.
Finally, this video from minimalist recording artists Egyptrixx is described as such: "The video examines the relationship between the simulated image and its physical manifestation." Sounds good to me. Try blowing this one up to full screen and turn up your volume so you feel the subwoofer in your belly. Thanks for the link on this one, Meandre!
