From the EP, Buster Fantastic and the White Whale Of Love.
Buster Fantastic is an unsigned artist who on their Myspace blog mused about writing music for pregnant women. A three movement piece for each trimester that will be positive, defying his nature. Download Mess Of Me free here. [Link provided on artist's website]
A somber song matched to a somber video. The bleak colors and stoic expression on the artist lend well to the mood in the clip. That is until the sock puppet...

Billy Talent eyeing Rusted From The Rain
Directed by Wayne Isham from the album, Billy Talent III.
With home base in Canada, the band took ten years from their emergence in 1993 to gain mainstream success. They have since gone on to have two albums reach multi-platinum success in their home country.
From the darkness comes light, and in this case, from the mangled metal trash thrown away came a childhood mainstay. Don't think parents would let them ride though...

The Warlocks eyeing Red Camera
Directed by Molly Rogers from the album, The Mirror Explodes.
The band formed in 1999 and ten years later are releasing The Mirror Explodes which they feel completes a period of sound for them. They are ready to try something new after this album.
The director went literal for this clip. The meditation and falling confetti on the other hand...
As can be seen below the director commented on the video. "I was just trying to make a film that was equal with the song. Equally hypnotic. Equally enigmatic. And equally beautiful".

Cornershop eyeing The Roll Off Characteristics (Of History In The Making)
Directed by Prashant Bhargava from the album, Judy Sucks A Lemon For Breakfast.
Cornershop's music combines Indian Music, British indie rock and electronic dance. Tjinder Singh formed the band in 1992 in Leicester, England and they have gone on to be, "the most treasured of British institutions" according to Times.

Cage eyeing I Never Knew You
Directed by Andrew Maggio from the album, Take Control.
Shot Baker's guide to England, "they say cheers for everything instead of thanks, washing machines are in the kitchen, you don't tip the bartenders, vegetarian friendly, napkins are not popular and the T.V. show Cops is a complete opposite of the show in the U.S.
Looks like an apartment, noise complaints would abound...

Metric eyeing Sick Muse
From the album, Fantasies.
Fantasies' closing track Stadium Love was inspired by the animal kingdom. Vocalist Emily Haines saw 'bat vs. spider' written on a bulletin board in their studio which she felt exemplified the earth's fauna. From swans fighting elephants to pigs biting tigers, according to her, we are all trapped in a ridiculous Noah's Ark.
What did the tiger do?

Autumn eyeing The Heart Demands
From the album, Altitude.
Guitarist Mats van der Valk describing the band's deliberate methods to music creation, "Nowadays, you often end up with a collection of songs, some killers, some fillers. For us, every note on this album has a purpose. Every second counts, so to speak".
Not much here, performance video...

School of Seven Bells eyeing My Cabal
Directed by David Mullett from the album, Alpinisms.
During an interview with National Public Radio(NPR), the band noted that their songwriting process begins with the lyrics, before adding instruments which in their eyes only serve to supplement.
An extremely basic setup, band and green screen. After those were placed in their positions camera tricks galore were used to make the video interesting. From stretch-o-vision, fisheye lens, headtracking, could serve as an ad for a video editing company. Look at what we can do...

Snow Patrol eyeing The Planets Bend Between Us
From the album, A Hundred Million Suns.
The music video was shot in Cape Town, South Africa where the band was playing the Coke Zero Festival. Lead singer Gary Lightbody is also working on two solo projects. A "Napoleonic rock-band collaboration" titled Listen Tank and a country album, Tired Pony.
Maybe looking too much into it but the video seems to have the theme that humans affect the world around them. Beach looks great...
