The Weeknd heralds his new album Dawn FM with a spectacular and nightmarish promo from Matilda Finn.&nbsp;The video for Gasoline is dripping in Finn's harrowing, hyperreal aesthetic, and follows an elderly version of the artist, who crashes his car into a stop sign and descends into a Hellish realm.&nbsp;He regains consciousness in a crowded room, where sinful beings are grappling for whatever physical pleasures they can acquire -&nbsp;sex, drugs, violence... it's all on the cards in this place.&nbsp;The crowd begin to show their true colours, as their faces distort into monstrous forms, and The Weeknd has a face-off with a younger version of himself, ending in another death.&nbsp;This is an enigmatic expression of existential despair in Matilda Finn's signature style, and it's&nbsp;outstanding work. The video touches upon life, death and addiction, and does so with sublime style - and lots of creepy crawlies.&nbsp;

C Prinz directs a vibrant futuristic promo for sister double act Chloe x Halle's Forgive Me - the director and artists'&nbsp;follow-up to the post-modern <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2020/05/27/chloe-x-halle-do-it-c-prinz/64987" target="_blank">Do It</a>.&nbsp;Opening with the lyrics "Don't ever ask for permission, ask for forgiveness", the fiery visual depicts the sisters dragging an unconscious, bound man to the middle of a rainforest set, backdropped by a glitchy greenscreen.&nbsp;Switching between several performance setups, the focus is very much on styling and aesthetics, with live action footage being intercut with 3D scans, irridescent VFX, and lo-fi dance cutaways.&nbsp;Refreshingly bold and stylish, the high-energy promo is a riotous trip through avant-garde concepts and unforgettable performances.&nbsp;

Khalid and Summer Walker get&nbsp;fast and furious in Daniel Russell's high octane video for Eleven.&nbsp;Packed with vibrant colour and early 00's exuberance, the video explores a drag race across Los Angeles (with cars, not drag queens), where Khalid is pitted against a selection of eclectic characters.Glossy, smooth and oozing with production value, it's a brilliant visual complement to the enigmatic track. A high-energy choreography section at the climax of the video strengthens the 00's throwback, reminiscent of the days where budgets where wild and the ideas were even wilder.&nbsp;

Atlanta singer-songwriting sisters (and Beyoncé protegées) Chloe X Halle have their breakout hit Do It visualised in a classic-with-a-twist video by director/choreographer&nbsp;C Prinz (aka Sarah C Prinz).The Bailey sisters perform the song through a number of sumptuously art directed studio set-ups. But Prinz tweaks the notion of a conventional glossy video: camera positions reveal the edges of the sound stage; VFX suddenly intrude, at times moving the girls' around the set.Then the edit contributes to the deconstruction too, by bouncing between&nbsp;scene to scene from the start. The rule-book, to gradually reveal each set-up, has been thrown away, which will make&nbsp;it all the more interesting to its&nbsp;visually literate viewership.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Katy Perry and her real life dog Nugget takes us on an emotional and surreal journey surrounding the trials and tribulations of a "Westminster Dog Show" type world in&nbsp;Tanu Muino's video for Small Talk.Super-colourful - as you might expect from a KP video - with a mixture of&nbsp;80s and almost futuristic&nbsp;styling from Phoenix Mellow, the video feels decidely anachronistic&nbsp;and is intriguing from the very start.&nbsp;Perry dives in head first, bringing her unique brand of charm and quirkiness to every facet of the project. And the other stars of the show are a cast of 20 dogs, who were joined by a variety of trainers to get the body language and movement just right.It hits every note we have come to expect from Perry's videography, with the more surreal moments grounded by themes of isolation and sadness. But of course, everything turns out right at the end! This is an exciting step into the mainstream world for&nbsp;Tanu Muino - a talent to look out for in the future.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Chainsmokers Vs 5 Seconds Of Summer 'Who Do You Love?' by Frank Borin

Mark Pellington demonstrates just why he is regarded as a music video directing legend, with his remarkable 11 minute &#39;music film&#39; for Imagine Dragons&#39; Next To Me.&nbsp;This is an intimate story of a relationship on a grand and tragic scale, which Pellington has told with a bravura brilliance that recalls the experimental style that he pioneered in his videos in the Nineties, and then brings it bang up to date.Imagine Dragons&#39; frontman Dan Reynold&#39;s highly flawed character is framed in the first minute by a searing speech of condemnation by Aja Volkman, Reynold&#39;s wife in the film and in real life. What follows incorporates a terrible crime, delivered in dramatic detail, but also becomes a stupendous fever dream, as we start to believe in Reynold&#39;s character&#39;s rehabilitation and release. Only to realise this is not how things pan out...&nbsp;&nbsp;Next To Me is a story of love, loss, mistakes, regrets, and redemption, and an inspiring example of a brilliant director being given the scope to practice his craft.
