Tags:
- Bjork: Pagan Poetry (Nick Knight): Bjork has pearls sewn into her skin. Ow..
- Blondie: Atomic (David Mallet) - Debbie Harry's dance moves are spastic and reluctant in a dance hall full of robots, clones, aliens, and other future beings. (Note: As par for the course in the '80s, the future is connotated by people wearing trash bags and stockings as acceptable pants.)
- Blur: Country House (Damien Hirst) - Blur plays a giant game of Mouse Trap.
- Cobra Killer: Mund Auf Augen Eu/Mouth Open Eyes Closed (Gina D’Orio and Annika Line) - Hula hoops, clowns in jail, dangerous high heels, and other stereotypical German arthaus fare.
- Cornelius: Drop (Koichi Tsujikawa) - A cute Japanese boy plays with water in the sink.
- Daft Punk: Technologic (GM de HC and Thomas Bangalter) - When raising a fascist robot baby, as with a real child, monitor what they watch on television.
- Franz Ferdinand (Diane Martel) - Franz Ferdinand does what I have always wanted to do- push people around in an art gallery. Also, everyone in this band is attractive. Especially the really ugly one.
- Goldfrapp: Number 1 (Dawn Shadforth) - The plastic surgeons at "Pooch and Tuck" turn a poodle into Allison Goldfrapp.
- The Juan Maclean (Ben Dickinson): Give Me Every Little Thing - A male street-walker is briefly abducted by silver aliens. During his stay, he consumes scrambled eggs, exercises, is serviced by a Coffy-ish woman, and fucks a machine.
- Kid606: The Illness (Joel Trussel) - Really cool flash animation of a cat stealing a laptop from some kind of cult.
- Kylie Minogue: Come Into My World (Michel Gondry) - More Kylies!!
- Ladytron: Seventeen (Terry Hall) - Dance party of death. Outlast your comrade or be dragged away!
- Prince: Black Sweat (Sanaa Hamri) - Prince shows off his brand new dance and makes the best faces since "Purple Rain."
- Royksopp: What Else is There (Martin De Thurah)- Not-Karin Dreijer can't stop levitating, and floats through a storm and into a 15th century Dutch still life.
- Vitalic: My Friend Dario (Marco Laguna) - Leather jumpsuits are cool, period.
