Feast your eyes on Alt-J's year in videos

Alt-J has blown up this year with their album An Awesome Wave.  Their music is filled with depth and emotions. There are so many layers to each song and with third or fourth listen suddenly you catch on.  No need to label these guys as the next Radiohead. I think someone called Muse that a few years back.  They have their own place in the music world.  Today, I just want to talk about how cool their videos have been so far this year.  Talk about art. 

I will start with my personal favorite video of theirs from the song "Tessellate."  Something about the simplicity of this video yet the images of the social circles is fascinating.  The dancing club girls is my favorite social circle.  I think I saw a few of those in Hollywood last night.

"Breezeblocks" is one great song and the video isn't far behind.  The video shown in reverse of the domestic battle is destructive and visually puzzling. Takes me back to the days music videos were a way for directors to get noticed.

"Something Good" video is the most cinematic attempt of theirs so far. The matador losing to the bull shot in this abstract visual style is art. I think I just watched a painting come to life. This is what music videos are supposed to look like. Take notes kids.

"Fitzpleasure" video was released by the band this month.  It's the newest to add to their growing list of visually inventive videos.   By the way, if you haven't picked up this album, you are missing out.  Great stuff.  That's one hell of a debut album.
