A pack of unruly kids give Soft Play a proper pasting in&nbsp;Thomas Davis' riotous promo for Punk's Dead.The comeback for the duo - known as Slaves until last year - sees&nbsp;the pair as bouncy castle salesman, setting up shop in a nondescript industrial location for the day.Things soon descend into chaos as the customers - a bunch of kids - start to grapple and beat down the pair, leading to a rather whimsical fever dream... starring Robbie Williams in the clouds. Yes, really.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]It's all rather brilliant. Plenty of daft charm and channelled aggression, with fine performances by the band and the kids (and Robbie) elevated by a distinctively gritty and raw aesthetic, for a track that satirises the backward thinking in Brexit Britain. It's a proper banger.And on this evidence, Punk is alive and well...&nbsp;

A bingo hall transitions into an impromptu gig performance, in Harry Deadman's charming promo for Cheshire indie-pop combo Cassia.&nbsp;The video for High Tones starts innocently enough, with a couple of tables enjoying a nice evening meal. This is all upended when crowds storm the stage to experience the feel-good vibes of a Cassia live performance.&nbsp;Eventually, everyone gets in on the action, and the video exudes a delightfully laid back and fun energy, which is reflected in the playful cinematography and performances.&nbsp;The art direction and styling in particular elevate the aesthetic of the visual, with plenty of pattern-heavy layers to keep things fresh and alluring.&nbsp;

Milo Blake harnesses the explosive energy of Royal Blood, through the experience of one audience member at a tumultuous gig, in his promo for Mountains At Midnight.The blistering video&nbsp;is a sensory exploration of the chaotic but cathartic euphoria you feel at a gig or a rave, when you are surrounded by others who are on the exact same frequency as you. Through flailing limbs and frenetic&nbsp;movement, the lead character&nbsp;flits between a packed-out space and one where she’s fully immersed and lost in the music, as the Brighton duo perform the track, the first release from their new album.It's a riotous, full-on visual with a grimy, monochromatic&nbsp;aesthetic, and&nbsp;Rich Woolway's thrilling cut reflects the rowdy atmosphere in the concept.[imgtoken data:1]

Thomas Davis directs an enigmatic promo for punk rocker Joe Unknown's gAng.&nbsp;Standing in front of a mirror in a theatrical backstage area, we see a young woman grab a pair of clippers and shave her hair off, as the camera crawls in and out, exploring the space.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]In the corner of the room, we see Joe Unknown in an armchair, half-watching TV and half-watching the girl shave her head.&nbsp;It's a remarkably simple yet powerful concept, that leaves plenty to the imagination - including the context of the situation.&nbsp;

Cian Godfrey - aka&nbsp;Somebody's Child - reflects on childhood aspirations in the sombre promo for Broken Record.&nbsp;Shifting between a young version of the artist in his childhood home, and an apathetic,&nbsp;beaten-down present day version, the video explores Cian's disappointment in the way his life has turned out.&nbsp;The vibrant, colourful aesthetic of youth soon turns grey and blue, reflecting the change in mood and loss of hope, instead presenting life as a dull cycle of misery and regret.&nbsp;Interestingly, however, it could be argued that one of his&nbsp;dreams has come true, in the form of Godfrey being a fully-fledged musical artist. Indeed, when the visual intercuts between the performance setup and&nbsp;his younger self rocking out to an untold track, things start to feel much more hopeful and less depressing than might have been suggested.&nbsp;

Samuel Taylor reunites with Fontaines D.C. to direct a hypnotic near-oneshot video for the intense I Love You.Taylor shot the terrific live promo of the Irish rock band's A Hero's Death for The Tonight Show&nbsp;- nominated for the Best Live Video award at last year's&nbsp;UKMVAs. This follows a similar structure - arguably it could be regarded as something of a sequel to that one - but it takes a more gothic and ghoulish turn, as frontman Grian Chatten performs&nbsp;the song as he walks through a candle-lit church.&nbsp;&nbsp;The combination of the setting and Chatten's characteristically monotone, almost contemptuous delivery of the lyrics help to build a sense of creepiness and forboding that feeds into the film's uncanny, horrific climax: the site of blood spurting spontaneously from the singer's chest, through his T-shirt...&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
