Oh yeah:

Grizzly Bear – Two Weeks

I’m a bit late to the game with this, but Two Weeks is a great song off a terrific album. And this cute animated video is a nice companion to the wistful nature of the music. I don’t even take points off for its being used in an ad.

Elbow – The Bones of You

I’ve loved Elbow since I first heard them in 2002. Their last album was a corker, full of beautiful melodies, clever arrangements, and lyrics that made me ache to hear their wit. Guy Garvey has a gift for lyrics, and The Bones of You was my favorite song on The Seldom Seen Kid. I had to learn to play it, and put it on repeat until I knew all the words intimately, like a poem I had to recite in public.

Bomb the Bass – Butterfingers

Wow, so long without a peep. Let’s break the silence with another music vid, even though it’s over a year old. I really like a lot of Bomb the Bass, but this video is my favorite. Anytime cute is combined with disturbing, it’s a win with me.

La Descente du Coude – L’Heure Me Pointe

And so my obsession with Canadian music continues. Montreal’s La Descente du Coude (descent of the elbow, I think) knocks one out for indie rock.

Best Wedding Video Ever

This is genius. This is a reason to have a wedding, just to be able to do the video.
