Cold Showers – “BC”



Here's "BC," the new video from Cold Showers, taken from the band's new album 'Love and Regret,' released this past October by Dais.

Directed by Brian Davila, with a cameo by Andrew King (Crystal Antlers), the video is an homage to films such as The Hunger, Society, and Night Of The Comet.

The Killers – “I Feel It In My Bones” Video



The Killers have made an exceedingly, commendably goofy mini-tradition out of releasing Christmas songs, and we posted their latest, the mock-horror Santa story “I Feel It In My Bones,” yesterday. And now here’s the video, in which Santa is reinvisioned as a terrifying vengeful biker. Director Roboshobo has a whole hell of a lot of fun with early-MTV lighting and fog machines.

A$AP Rocky – “Fuckin’ Problems” (Feat. Drake, Kendrick Lamar & 2 Chainz)



A$AP Rocky recruited a hell of a lineup for “Fuckin’ Problem,” the sex-talk posse cut from his forthcoming album LONGLIVEA$AP. And all four guys show up in the brand-new video. It’s a pretty bare-bones affair: Some dancers, some fashionable black clothes, some blank backgrounds. And it lives and dies entirely on the rappers’ charisma. Fortunately, these are some charismatic motherfuckers; Drake, in particular, comes out looking like the coolest motherfucker on the face of the earth.

Sally Shapiro – “What Can I Do”



Sweden’s Sally Shapiro kind of disappeared after her 2009 sophomore album My Guilty Pleasure, but she’ll return in 2013 with a new album, Somewhere Else. We heard achingly sweet and earnest first single “What Can I Do” last month, and now we’ve got a video for the track. Directed by Jarett Sitter, the animated clip follows a silhouetted figure through a fantasy landscape, capturing both the song’s sadness as well as its sense of wonder.

Tomahawk - "Stone Letter" (Official Music Video)



Around the time Faith No More broke up, Mike Patton started a new band with a particularly burly and vicious lineup: Melvins’ Trevor Dunn, the Jesus Lizard’s Duane Denison, and Helmet’s John Stanier, who would later become the best part of every Battles show. Tomahawk has been largely inactive since 2007, but they’ve started touring again, and they released a new single called “Stone Letter” on Black Friday. The song’s video is all live-show footage.

A.C. Newman - "I'm Not Talking" (Official Music Video)



A.C. Newman gets real raw and emotional with a talk show host in the clip for “I’m Not Talking.” The General Assembly directs.

The Echo Friendly – “Supplies For Arson”



The Echo Friendly’s “Supplies For Arson” begins with some spoken word about the song title and “the Pencil Factory,” which probably isn’t about setting a Dixon Ticonderoga plant ablaze so much as it is a reference to this bar in Greenpoint and this boy/girl group’s tendency to go from flames to ex-flames: The Echo Friendly is Jake Rabinbach (ex-Francis & The Lights guitarist) and Shannon Esper, a pair of North Brooklyn residents who have turned the melodramatics around their ever-shifting relationship status into an song-cycle about it. (Think The Kills, though less slinky/more indie-pop/more romantically involved.) If you watch the show Girls, you may recognize their song “Same Mistakes” (and if you didn’t watch it, you can probably still guess what the track’s about). “Supplies For Arson” is just as direct, but for the opening’s double entendre, and its video frames their “are they, or not” story arc into a three-and-a-half minute video vignette.

Watch Florence Join The Rolling Stones In London



The Rolling Stones are in London playing a string of shows in celebration of the band’s 50th anniversary, and last night the band brought out Florence Welch to wail on “Gimme Shelter.” She obliged.

Foxygen – “Shuggie”



In the mysterious, black-and-white Ulysses///Onasis-directed video for Foxygen’s assured, string-laded indie-pop tune “Shuggie,” a gleaming black box seems to stand in for a whole lot of people’s deepest longings and desires, or something. It’s pretty weird! Watch it below.

Eternal Summers – “Good As You”



Virginia indie-pop C86-throwbacks Eternal Summers released a terrific LP this past July, Correct Behavior, which has been unjustly overlooked on most of the year-end lists I’ve seen so far. So it’s a good time for the band to drop another video from the album (by my count its fourth!), reminding those of us who make such lists to take another look at ‘em. “Good As You” has the winsome sweetness of an old Softies ballad, all clean-tone guitar strum and Nicol Yun’s longing vocal, heavy on the echo. The video takes place partly in a dilapidated hospital, with the band in scrubs looking drugged, and partly in an underwater dreamworld.

Nosaj Thing - "Eclipse/Blue" [Official Video]



Interesting – and beautiful – music video for Nosaj Thing by Daito Manabe. Manabe employed a Point Grey camera to track the dancers – all graphics were projected in real time over the live performance. For more information on the piece, check out The Creators Project’s interview with Manabe.
