Wanna go record shopping with Chantal Claret and the dudes from Morningwood? Then check this clip that's a totally fun tribute to the days when LP's sported kicky cover art. Then be prepared to have the tune stuck in your head for hours.
No one does ambiguously articulate despair and glamorous self-pity quite as fabulously as Morrissey. Watch him woo a 70's-era Spanish variety show audience as he croons his latest. Viva Moz!
Bringing lo-fi attitude to rock comes this splashy, almost psychedelic clip (like a video game on acid!) from Beth Ditto and her fun Gossipy pals. Think a more zaftig Le Tigre--from Portland!
This one recalls Napoleon Dynamite, as people of all ages and cultures dance to prove the band wrong. Jocks, rockers, businessmen - and everyone else may look silly, but it's hard to resist. So dance, already!
When Allison Goldfrapp walks the dog in this surreal clip, it's like Matthew Barney meeting up with William Wegman for a quickie Botox. Or something. Anyway, this clip proves once again that love is a bitch.
Led by out lesbian Mishka, this crunchy electro-pop winner is sure to get you grooving on the dance floor. It's campy, vampy and everthing you'd want in a zippy global pop tune. Nice shades, Mish!
Who's the sexiest animated band in the business? Bloc Party give the Gorillaz a run for their money in this gorgeous clip. Watch out for those pig-lizards, though! Run, Kele, run!
A slammin' new tune from San Francisco's riotous lesbian indie/punk/electro rockers. It's explosively anti-war (there's even a creepy Ann Coulter head floating around!). Rock for a cause!
Ever been at the gym and feel like the treadmill is underutilized as a choreographic device. Well OK Go, felt the same way, so they made this pretty awesome video. Another amazing one-take masterpiece!
We tend to love out artists at NewNowNext, and fab indie rockers Now It's Overhead are no exception. They're from Athens, GA, home of the B-52's and R.E.M., so they must be good. And the video has some very cool animation.
Could this kind of adorable, really quirkily homespun duo of "honky-tonk pixies" be any more appealing? Not sure. Either way you can't not love their dryly whimsical, charmingly old-timey style... Pass the sasparilla!
New York's power-voiced out artist Adam Joseph present this groove that's a testament to self-confidence and being cool with who you are. And it's got an irresistible beat. You're gonna dig it.
Out artist Sarah Bettens brings you this concert clip of her seductive, groovin' tune. It's an inviting message of independence and self-awareness. And it's kind of sexy. The crowd sure loves it.
Hedwig meets Freddie Mercury in The Ark's vampy, openly bisexual Ola Salo, who serves up this killer, kicky track that's a party in your Lycra pants. Love the chandeliers and laser beams, too!
The charming geeks of Hellogoodbye (who love their short-shorts) deliver this irresistible video that's kinds of like "Wet Hot American Summer" meets electro-pop at a totally fun party. Perfect to dance (or make out) to!
