The month saw the release of Taylor Swift's record-breaking new album, and a stunning video directed by Taylor herself that will be blamed for any spike in popularity of facial tattoos for girls.

But April was also the month of more outstanding videos for, among others, Artemas, Bashy, Camilla Cabello, Depeche Mode, Dua Lipa, London Grammar, Mitski... and Aube Perrie's astonishing, multi-layered tour de force for Fontaines DC.

Could the Starburster vid have as much lasting impact as Taylor's Tortured Poets opus? You get face tattoos in that one too...

And much more besides.
