Since Major Lazer’s debut album Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do in 2009, the cartoon character version of Major Lazer has appeared on the cover of every one of their albums and singles.

Identically recreating D’Angelo’s 2000 music video for "Untitled (How Does It Feel)," the video features Panic! lead singer Brendon… Read More

Directed by Christopher Hill, the video for "Free Your Mind" by Cut Copy has sparked a lot of internal debate here at IMVDb. Upon first watch, we were pretty sure that this video, starring Alexander Skarsgård from HBO’s True Blood, was about a weird but laid back cult with a gentle giant… Read More

This week was a remarkable week for music videos that you may not have seen. I was very hard pressed to pick five, but by sticking to the ones which made the most memorable impressions on me, I feel I’ve nailed this week’s most essential viewing. That being said, with… Read More

Say what you will about Miss Taylor Swift, she has produced some pretty amazing ballads in her short career so far. It's all part of a balance: for every quasi-novelty single like "I Knew You Were Trouble", there's a ballad like "Begin Again". She keeps them short, and she knows… Read More

Tyler, the Creator has always seemed to bristle a little bit at Odd Future being called a "hip hop collective", as they are introduced as on many talks shows. I think Tyler sees OFWGKTA and himself as artists that happen to make hip hop, among other things. That attitude is… Read More
