It's not amongst their best works but yeah it's still solid. Gorillaz, James Murphy , Andre 3000 and their "DoYaThing" Video.

Damien Jurado - "Museum of Flight" Video

Sort of somehow missed Damien Jurado over the years or forgot that I liked him.  Formerly on Sub Pop and Currently on Secretly Canadian, his new album is damn good.

AlunaGeorge - "We Are Chosen" Video

Don't know much but I know I am digging AlunaGeorge.

Bon Iver - "Towers" Video

You've probably already seen this but I am still gonna share.  It's a great track from the self-titled Bon Iver album that was released last year that somehow was more hyped than his first.  It's good though, so it's OK.
