STORYTIME
The Smashing Pumpkins - 1979 and Perfect
These two videos are actually like one in that they portray a group of friends and what they grow up to be a few years down the road. How all the different people cross paths through a series of events reminds me of the movie Crash.
Muse - Knights of Cydonia
This video is arranged like a Western/kung fu/sci-fi/fantasy movie, complete with titles and end credits. Interesting concept.
Stabbing Westward - Shame
This video tells a story (or so it seems). There are even dialogue subtitles. The video is so full of twists and turns that it's hilarious.
Everclear - Brown Eyed Girl
Similar to the previous video in that it has subtitles to describe what's going on in the video. However, this story carries a much lighter mood, is also hilarious, and you'd probably get caught off-guard with the ending.
Massive Attack - Angel
This video is kind of surreal. I don't know what it means, and the ending makes you ponder what's going on.
COOL VISUALS
Muse - Stockholm Syndrome
This is what Muse looks like through thermal cameras.
Korn - Freak on a Leash
Some cool animation work with the projectile.
Thrice - Digital Sea
This video looks like it's shot from the perspective of a grocery store security camera. The part in the middle where the store items move is beyond awesome. Beware of seizures during the night scenes.
Royksopp - Remind Me
This one's for the enginerds out there (thanks Myra).
MOCKUMENTARY
Korn - Twisted Transistor
I guess what makes this on-the-tour mockumentary even funnier is that they got four big-name rappers to play the four actual band members in the video.
MISCELLANEOUS
Collective Soul - Listen
This video basically portrays the story of my life I think. Also, I really like the stop motion.
CONCLUDING HONORABLE MENTIONS
These guys are all on a boat (T-Pain not included, sorry), these people have secrets to tell, and this video is probably everybody's favorite by now.
