Oh yeah, I also found this one video for the misfits song "Death Comes Ripping" that used footage from a hong kong action movie. I'm pretty sure it was a Woo movie, although I really can't say for certain. That was really entertaining. The Misfits video for Brain Eaters was also pretty hilarious and stupid.

Judas Priest's "Breaking the Law" is a hilarious video.


Win!

When they were filming that the bank staff where they were fliming thought they were doing a TV Commercial for the bank. Hilarity.

I dunno. Not seen that many good videos. Gorillaz and Pearl Jam usually got really well made videos. But I can't say I have any absolute favorits. BTW: I also really liked NIN's "We're in this together" video-

EDIT: AFI had an old video that was pretty cool. It was a story video based on the part of "Goodfellas" where they dump that guy in the trunk of the car, then shoot and stab him some. Then bury him in the desert.

But generally, the videos that I really go for are the ones that isn't appearing to be anything more than a visual feed to accomodate the music. Like The Mars Volta's videos.

There's a few more on my hard drive at home that I'll add to this list later.

Worst video ever: Skinny Puppy - Pro-Test

Ugh! Probibly the worst video Iv'e ever seen. It should have been 4 1/2 minnutes of worms, fake blood and whatever else those junkbombs have floating in their skulls.. breakdancing.. pfft.. I forget what he said in the very end, but it really was the icing on a very, very shitty cake.. "Word"..

Edit: Anything by Robert Palmer in the 80s was ususally pretty elite.

Peter Gabriel - Digging in The Dirt

Duh.

Speaking of which, what the fuck is up with this new Deathcab For Cutie video? Should I be glad they're knocking off PG's visual style while not bringing anything new to it? Douchebags.

Aphex Twin's "Come to Daddy" and Nine Inch Nails "We're In This Together" spring to mind.
