Teeeezy C enters into rock territory in triumphant fashion, with an absorbing road movie-style video for&nbsp;Nothing But Thieves.In the video for Overcome, a couple leave their enigmatic surroundings in search of the perfect life, on the road with the band - and Teeezy puts a modern twist on classic rock videos from the golden age of MTV.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Taking us on a journey of human connection as they head towards the DCC - an obscure&nbsp;entity that represents one’s deepest desires - the video is tied together by a captivating performance from the band, and an overarching sense of mystery.With a naturalistic colour palette and brilliant central performances from the main characters, it's an evocative, powerful journey and a brilliant complement to the group's comeback track.&nbsp;&nbsp;

What happens if you combine The Late Late Show with a dictator who is celebrating his great achievements? That's the question Ricky Allen explores in his new&nbsp;promo for veteran rock band Porcupine Tree.&nbsp;The video for Rats Return laments the state of the world today, and focuses on an enigmatic host-cum-autocrat, whose sole purpose on stage is to celebrate his power and achievements.&nbsp;Shot in black and white with Soviet-era art direction and typography, the concept is stirring and&nbsp;thought-provoking, and combines surreal imagery with superb performances from everyone on-screen.&nbsp;

Andy Mihov cycles back to create an enhanced edition of a previous promo for&nbsp;Esprit D'air's Leviathon.&nbsp;The video&nbsp;tells the story of a post-apocalyptic world, ravaged by pandemics, where an AI seeks to break free from her abusive creator and help humankind.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]"The original shoot was challenging. We had to bounce back from a few hiccups and the turnaround was brutal." Mihov mentions."We didn't really have time to play with things. When the dust settled, we were incredibly pleased with the result and the feedback was phenomenal. But we continued to toy with the idea of what more we could do.&nbsp;Forming a team across the UK, France and even Taiwan, Mihov expanded the story and added some additional graphics and visual effects work to the piece.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:2]"I'm incredibly grateful to the amazing team that stuck by me throughout it all. Leviathan 2.0 re-envisions our story, modernizes and definitely pushes it further into the realm of sci-fi fantasy."Leviathan 2.0: Enhanced Edition was released to mark the release of Esprit D'Air's second studio album Oceans.

Jack Turner explores the divide between our digital and analogue worlds, in the introspective promo for Crossfire.&nbsp;In this bittersweet letter to apathy, we enter a dystopia where a man and a woman have been reduced to nothing. They have been absorbed by a digital world, waiting for themselves - or something - to shake them out of their reality.Featuring a cold, desaturated colour palette and glitchy performance scenes playing out on different devices, the video feels as if it lives within a parallel world, abstract and alien in its presentation.The heart of the concept shines through, however, finding a universally relatable anchor in the relationship on-screen, and the emotions that play out.&nbsp;

Andy Mihov creates a&nbsp;near-future dystopian melodrama, with echoes of classic mythology and gothic horror, for the London-based Japanese metal outfit&nbsp;Esprit D'Air.The story revolves around Athena, the creation of AI genius Theodora, who is kept from the outside world and desires the freedom to be an individual in her own right. Mihov creates an absorbing twist upon a&nbsp;classic narrative, intercut with the Esprit D'Air frontman Kai's passionate performance of the bombastic Leviathan.&nbsp;&nbsp;

In this disturbing story directed by Andy Mihov, Dani, lead singer of Bury Tomorrow, faces a fruitless career and soul-crushing routine. As he trudges through his days in a mindless cycle, chaos and darkness threaten to take hold.We witness&nbsp;his rapidly deteriorating mental state, as&nbsp;he begins feeling his personality and sense of Self being metaphorically cannibalized by both society and his soulless routine.The colour red begins signifying his rapidly deteriorating mental state - but&nbsp;rather than descending into madness, Dani adapts. As the pressures of society and his overall unhappiness push him to the brink, he lets go of his identity in order to survive. His reflection in the mirror glitches, letting us know that inside his soul and identity have been compromised - devoured and gone.Although he has found a way to exist in the world the final scenes suggest that he is neither happier, nor has he escaped the mindless of his dark existence...

Meditating on the purpose of certain spaces and locations we frequent in life, Laurence Warder's video for Dreamland explores a narrative told through contemporary choreography.&nbsp;&nbsp;Set in an empty office space where many people will find themselves trapped in a 9-5 grind, this is the story of a person’s path, how it leads to this moment and knowing oneself to pull away. A contemporary dance delivered in a cinematographic way.A strong performance is elevated through a hypnotic variety of lighting styles and colours, representing the dream world this piece inspires.&nbsp;

Laurence Warder directs an intense, claustrophobic&nbsp;and impressively shot performance video for UK metalcore band Bury Tomorrow.With cinematography from Tom Watts that emphasises every straining sinew, delivered mainly in shadowy monochrome,&nbsp;this is a visceral visualization of the Southampton band's thunderous The Grey (VIXI).

New band Milk Teeth clown around in the video for Given Up, directed by Chris Chance.&nbsp;Performing on-stage to an upper-class clientele, who don't appreciate the music in the slightest, the anachronistic mix of vintage clown makeup and wardrobe with a&nbsp;contemporary aesthetic gives this video a timeless feel.&nbsp;The concept gives a nod to iconic&nbsp;rock videos, as the band&nbsp;produce their own take on a classic concept, it's a performance&nbsp;video enhanced by dark humour and strong performances all round.&nbsp;

Jack Lighfoot&nbsp;teams up with the fabulous Sink The Pink to create an alternative video for P!nk&#39;s Walk Me Home. Very alternative.Shot at Bethnal Green Working Men&#39;s Club - Sink The Pink&#39;s spiritual home - it sees STP&#39;s Johnny Bones, Bimini, Rodent, Petite Lame and Le Fil hilariously battle it out in a flamboyant lipsync performance&nbsp;in front of the awestruck judges, in the hopes of being&nbsp;crowned the ultimate P!nk.

Industrial noise punks Black Futures are well known for exciting visuals in their stage shows and this gets incorporated into Laurence Werder&#39;s kinetic, dystopia-inspired&nbsp;video for Me.TV.With &#39;Anton Corbijn meets Wizard of Oz&#39; providing the inspiration, the action starts in high contrast monochrome, and bursting into an explosion of&nbsp;teal and red. It&#39;s a call to action against The Man. Couldn&#39;t be a better time for that really... &nbsp;

Hot on the heels of&nbsp;his video for <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2018/08/07/kodaline-shed-tear-james-fitzgerald" target="_blank">Shed A Tear</a>, James Fitzgerald&#39;s latest video for Kodaline is quite different - a comic drama.&nbsp;He tells a story in which,&nbsp;not for the first time in a Kodaline video, a true underdog is about to have their day.That happens to be a&nbsp;school dinner lady, with a rebellious streak and anger management issues. She may be depressed, with unfulfilled dreams of stardom, but when her school puts on the same musical she performed in as a child, she realises this is the chance to make dreams come true... Well, sorta.
