Videos of the Week

What a week it has been. Didn't think I would get through it with my sanity intact. Here are the videos that made this week much less insufferable:



Wild Beasts' album Smother is fast becoming my album of the year. I listen to it about 5 times a day and am always discovering something new. Here is a live performance of "Bed of Nails" on Jools Holland.



New Beyonce video for the Major Lazer sampling track "Run The World (Girls)." The song is very lazy, but the video is kicking.



Strange video from the Swedish artist known as iamwhoiam, who last year, released a slew of weird, arty clips that had people thinking it was new material from Fever Ray, Goldfrapp, or even Christina Aguilera.



Video for the combined single "Lindesfarne" from post-dubstep prodigy James Blake.



New track from Joker. Slamming track.



Second video from EMA's album Past Life Martyred Saints. She is drawing comparision to everyone from PJ Harvey, Courtney Love, and Patti Smith. Her album is a difficult listen, but ultimately very rewarding.



90's alt-rock revivalists The Vaccines video for "If You Wanna."
