Music Video of the Week: Paper Route - "Gutter"

Confession: I generally know within the first thirty seconds whether or not a video is going to be "Music Video of the Week". I have to like the music and the video itself has to be something new, something different, something atypical. So, for this week's I've chosen Paper Route's "Gutter". It hits every target perfectly and it probably doesn't hurt that I know they're incredibly nice guys. It's also one of those videos that the first time I watched it, I said, "I wish I'd thought of this for my band."



P.S. Paper Man was the movie trailer of the week. Paper Route is the music video of the week. Coincidence? Um, yes.

Music Video of the Week: Hot Chip - "I Feel Better"

On first glance you might think this an odd pick from me. Watch the whole video and see why I picked it. Then go check out Hot Chip.

Music Video(s) of the Week: OK Go - "This Too Shall Pass"

I do not know how the OK Go fellas keep coming up with these brilliant videos. This one is astoundingly cool!

Below that is another version I hadn't previously posted because some moron involved in the band's YouTubery thought it shouldn't be embeddable. Now it's up at Vimeo.

Music Videos of the Week: Grizzly Bear - "Two Weeks" & Paramore - "Brick By Boring Brick"

In keeping with the twofer trailer offer this week, here are two music videos I enjoy quite a bit. The first is Grizzly Bear's creepy "Two Weeks". The second is Paramore's "Brick By Boring Brick", a gorgeous video. And I have to say Haley looks pretty darn great with blonde hair.

Music Video for the Week of Halloween: Monogrenade - "Ce Soir"

Unlike French bands Phoenix, Beirut, and even Daft Punk, Monogrenade actually sings in French. Here is their video "Ce soir". It seemed appropriate for Halloweek as it seems they are in a haunted underwater house. It looks better (as all videos do) here on Vimeo but was not embeddable (I have no idea why bands/labels would ever do that).
