Miike Snow “Rabbit” - new (amazing) video directed by Andreas Nilsson.

Video for the song “Born Free” by M.I.A. Filmed by Romain-Gavras. It is already banned by Youtube and if you watch the whole video you probably know why. M.I.A. though is very pissed (Twitter) and uses a very aggressive advertisement campaign for the clip also. As this screenshot from XLR8R proves.

M.I.A. - Born Free by Hypetrak

(via Testspiel and @barbnerdy)

The Raveonettes - Heart Of Stone

Gorillaz - Stylo (feat. Mos Def and Bobby Womack) + Bruce Willis

Yeah, nice style, sytlo you could say. And there is Bruce Willis! Cool. But hey, that’s it. Rather a not so good short film than a fantastic music video. Where is the over the top storyline? The record is a bit disappointing too (ok, after listening to it for just two times). But thanks for the hype.

D.R.I. - Beneath The Wheel

Dirty Rotten Imbeciles from Houston, Texas = Crossover thrash legends and logo/marketing gods.

Sepultura - Beneath The Remains

I know, a lot of people would go for “Roots”

or “Territory”.

Good shmasher but for myself, “Beneath The Remains” is the shit. The only other song is:

Mötley Crüe - Live Wire

First single released from their 1981 debut album “Too Fast for Love”. The video was directed by Mötley Crüe and during filming, Nikki Sixx’s leg caught on fire - Live Wire! Of course there is “Girls Girls Girls”, “Wildside”, “Dr. Feelgood”,”On With The Show” and other good MC songs, but this is it. Even though not always too good when played live, as you can see in this video, haha.

Metal Church - Start The Fire

Fan video for this classic metal song on the 1986 album “The Dark”.

Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden

So. It’s (my personal) metal week. And not a day will go by without a video by the best band starting with the self-titled last track of their debut album. Because: “Oh well, wherever, wherever you are, Iron Maiden’s gonna get you, no matter how far.” Paul DI’Anno! Paul Di’anno! Paul Di’anno!

P.S.: Hilarious! “Ex-Iron Maiden lead singer Paul Di’Anno at the Classic Rock Jam, Koseinenkin Hall, Tokyo, Japan, October 11, 2009.”

Machine Head - Davidian

A highlight in the era of down-tuned guitars, sound brutality perfection and technical philistinism. No wonder this is the first song on another groundbreaking debut album. Metal in 1992 was a complete “cross-anythinggoes-over” (not only soundwise, check the “styling”). Btw, this song has one of the best outros ever.

Voivod - Tribal Convictions

RRRRRRRRRROOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRR. Official music video of one of the best bands foreverever. Guitarist Denis “Piggy” D’ Amour became a legend after dying “from colon cancer in 2005, aged 45. His approach to music was anarchic and experimental rather than strict and theoretical. He was trained in classical violin as a child. He was influenced by progressive rock artists such as King Crimson, Pink Floyd and Rush.” (Wkipedia) Voivod are recording a new album and are still playing shows touring the US with Kreator this spring and at Wacken 2010. Hell yeah. Don’t forget to check out even their late albums, they’re fantastic too though nothing beats my favourite tune and song title: Macrosolutions to Megaproblems.

Overkill - In Union We Stand

Singer Bobby Ellsworth aka Bobby Blitz turned 50 last year and is still maybe one of metals best trained singers (talking about being in shape) as the 2007 live video shot in Wacken proves: “Fuck you” (yet another classic Overkill tune). He still has a fckng six pack! Btw, one of their best ideas was the cover version of The Dead Boys’ legendary song “Sonic Reducer” live in Bochum 12th May 1986. One of the best songs of all time. See also The Dead Boys performing “Sonic Reducer” live at their 1980 Halloween reunion, with a special introduction by Joey Ramone. [Alternate version, funny announcer(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmVCdPe2_Ao). Back to Overkill, another classic: “Rotten To The Core”

Dio - The Last In Line

Classic. Song and video!

Forbidden - March Into Fire ( The Burning music video )

Another Bay Area Thrash metal band most popular in the late 1980s and the early 1990s. This song is taken form the debut album called “Forbisden Evil” (1988). This “music video” was professionally edited by Mike Juliano, taken from the DVD release of Horror Pain Gore Death: Volume 4 with scene of the 80’s slasher movie “The Burning”.
