Directed by Dean Spunt and Lana Kim from the album, We Bu Xuxa.
Mika Miko has a large discography, though they prefer fans to see them live. “Performing live is what you want to do as a musician,” says Jennifer Clavin[vocals]. “But without a record, you know, it’s difficult,” Jessica interjects. “People want to take that home and listen to it.” [Clashmusic]
Video feels like it came out of the heydays of punk. They were outside....

Kings of Leon eyeing Notion
From the album, Only By the Night.
Only a couple of days after the release of their third album, Because of the Times, lead singer Caleb Followill stated that new tracks were already on tap for their fourth outing. That album, Only By the Night went on to be the best selling album of 2008 in Australia.
True story potential seems to have been missed in the video. The lead walks against traffic and ends up at a burning building. One would think he's trying to save someone but it never comes. Even the band playing in the exploding building seems nonsensical, but its good eye candy for the Michael Bay fans. Looks like they don't make it out...

Amberian Dawn eyeing He Sleeps In A Grove
From the album, The Clouds of Northland Thunder.
After the breakup of the band Virtuocity, some of its members came together to form the Finnish band Amberian Dawn. Their search for a female lead vocalist lead them to Heidi Parviainen formerly of Iconoclear in 2006.
The story section of the video is extremely sparse. Did the rider get him?

Paul Dempsey eyeing Out The Airlock
Directed by Bart Borghesi from the album, Everything Is True.
Paul Dempsey is lead singer for the Australian band Something For Kate. Everything Is True is his first album as a solo artist.
Sometimes the video had a "Godzilla" feel to it with Paul towering over the city but in the end the final product was relaxing. His placement into the faux background was done well, it would have been nice if he did more than walk. Maybe interact with the townspeople or something along those lines. Train never comes...

Howling Bells eyeing Cities Burning Down
From the album, Radio Wars.
The band was formed in 2004 from the remnants of Waikiki, an Australian rock group. They are opening for Coldplay during the North American leg of the Viva La Vida tour.
Green screen is put to good use. The band members don't do much except pretend ride their motorcycles and play. Wolf...

Attack Attack! eyeing Stick Stickly
From the album, Someday Came Suddenly.
Someday Came Suddenly is the band's debut album. They are known to have both hardcore and trance elements in their music. They used their repertoire on the Punk Goes Pop 2 album performing Katy Perry's I Kissed A Girl.
Looks like the band tries their hardest to be the first choreographed headbangers. Even some of the jumps are strangely in unison. Then the running man is employed during the trance section. Look out Usher...

Micachu and The Shapes eyeing Golden Phone
Directed by Conan Roberts from the album, Jewellery.
"One of the highlights from Micachu & The Shapes acclaimed debut album Jewellery is Golden Phone. The song harnesses a multitude of sounds – vocal looped beats, mica sighing, electro-static squawks, keyboards being dropped – and fuses them into 24 carat pop gold". [Rough Trade Records]
Fun and energetic like the song itself. The have the shapes literally on stage...

The Sounds eyeing No One Sleeps When I'm Awake
From the album, Crossing the Rubicon.
The Sounds have had a variety of unique ways of advertising their band in the past. Vocalist Maja Ivarsson was named one of Blender Magazine's "Hottest Women of Rock" and fan Dave Grohl(Foo Fighters) wore a The Sounds t-shirt during their music video for Times Like These.
The story portion of the video is short but is pieced together in such a way that you can understand what's going on in the few second glimpses. Perfect place to go makeup, "The Good Friend" restaurant...

A dark video, both literally and figuratively. Are they bleeding or sweating? Don't hide the gore in the dark if you're trying to be gory. Priests should not watch T.V....

Iwrestledabearonce eyeing You Ain't No Family
Directed by David Anthony from the album, It's All Happening!!!
"Somehow IWABO’s spastic blending of genres maintains a cohesive sound that draws in listeners from many musical worlds". [CenturyMedia]
The funniest metalcore video that has been posted so far. Starts off with a typical stage performance before turning into a dance off competition, priest selling Bibles in club music video. And the random country riff...
