I mean music videos that have nothing to do with the music and mostly just do their own thing and tell their own story.
An example –
Basement Jaxx’s Red Alert seems to be about a meteor-worshiping cult awaiting the arrival of their rocky messiah in some unsuspecting greasy spoon cafe in the middle of nowhere.
Once the meteor crashes into Earth, everyone gets horribly mutated and convulses to the strange rays exhibited by the meteor. The infection seems to be localized entirely within the cafe. The End.
Edit: Please link to a video, or at least summarize the plot.
Edit2: Please actually link to a video, or tell me why the video plot is cool. Come on, it’s just 30 seconds of your time.
The government bans and confiscates all music, and locks up musicians with their instruments and outfits in an underground bunker, where the musicians “cunningly” use these resources to sing in protest, but wait it’s actually a premonition for something that hasn’t happened yet and time loops itself. Pretty cool
