Summer Music Video Picks #2

More music videos, some current trenders, some flashbacks, summer only because it’s summer as I seek, find and post. I plan to provide further evidence, here on Versa Vice, that there is great music, and even music videos out there, often neglected, ignored, even shunned by the mediocre pop conglomerates. MTV has remained the underbelly of American society, even wallowing in its own ephemeral excrement…but that doesn’t mean we can’t have an art form survive and thrive. Enjoy.

Perfect starter vid, with a blast-off. Atlas Sound, takes us forward by looking back.


Speaking of a “look back,” the best live concert video ever made from any genre, or era, Stop Making Sense, as we all should…so take me home.


In spite of mixed feelings from song to song, I’m a Ladytron fan. A lot of great output over the years that allows me to look past the occasional cheese dud.


I’m new to Violens. But Hell be damned if they don’t rock and have, what should be, great melodic pop appeal. Where remain the deafened masses?


For those who can recall Portishead and the mood they could make sonically, this could be a considered a child of, or lasting echo. Great multi-period reconfiguring…or simply put, a great song.


Remaining my all time top video, it speaks for itself, Doves. Extracted from one of MTV2’s earlier and more legitimate carnations.
