Fiction Vs. Reality

Alright well it's been an interesting week. Ever since I broke my foot going nuts to Sandstorm at an all-night-dance, I've been to uncomfortable to do too much of anything. However, there have been 4 INCREDIBLE music videos released recently that have seemed sooo crazy, I've been inspired to write a post about them.

First off "Evident Utensil" by Chairlift.



When I first started watching this, I was kinda liked hmm thats cool I guess...? As I continued to watch though it grew on me more and more. So it may take you more than one watch to fully appreciate it. Really messes with your mind, but in a beautiful pixalated way. If you enjoy it you may also want to check out Kanye's new video which was made in the same type of way.
Welcome to Heartbreak by Kanye West ft. Kid Cudi Music Video

And believe it or not that leads me into my next one perfectly. Music video for "Day N Night" by Kid Cudi.


I remember when I first heard Kid Cudi's stuff a while back, and I really enjoyed what he was putting out there. Now he's added to my appreciation towards him with this fantastic video for Day N Night where his minds is wandering every which way while he's going about time. Anything involving real life video mixed with cartoon/animations just always seems to blow my mind and I fall in love.

Speaking of animation, saw Coraline the other day and if you have a chance to check it on the big screen, don't pass it up. You'll regret it.

Up Next "When I Grow Up" by Fever Ray



If I'm not mistaken I've actually already blogged about their "If I had A Heart" music video not too long ago. From the looks of it, this music video was filmed around the same location(?). I'm not sure what it is, but something about Fever Ray's music and videos is just very deep and emotional too me.

Last, but not least "Cable TV" by Fol Chen



I remember when I was first told about Fol Chen. Back then they were pretty much nobodies. Being able to watch them progress to where they've come today and where they seem to be going is just mind blowing. This video isn't anything short of that either in my mind. Stop motion dancing has never looked so beautiful.
