Kimberly Stuckwisch and&nbsp;Melora Donoghue have collaborated on the new video for Yusuf/Cat Stevens, and created a striking allegory to match the heartfelt message and simple clarity for which the legendary singer-songwriter is renowned.In the video for On The Road To Find Out, a man walks through the desert, dragging a rock behind him, dotted with objects&nbsp;- his personal boulder. They are umbilically attached and the man's burden accumulates more items, whizzing through the air to attach themselves,&nbsp;as he struggles forward. And finally he cannot move at all. So there's only one thing for it...With a strong performance by Viet Dang at the core of the piece, a dramatic location and a wonderfully elegant use of VFX, Stuckwisch and Donague have achieved something unusual and special - a fantasy with a gritty edge, and a splendid match for Yusuf's&nbsp;blues-influenced reflection on achieving spiritual enlightenment.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The hottest band... just one push away.The Strokes return with a hilarous dystopian nightmare by&nbsp;Andrew Donoho - or rather weird clones of The Strokes, who&nbsp;go on sale on TV&nbsp;in&nbsp;a&nbsp;freaky alternative past.&nbsp;&nbsp;And remarkably, The Strokes really were cloned to make this video. It was all&nbsp;made possible by the use of&nbsp;Deepfake technology, courtesy of The Fakening. Arguably that is rather more troubling than the actual video...

If you thought Lance Drake&#39;s last video for Muse was a bit over the top... then reconsider. That one for Dig Down had a tough lady beating all the odds in a retro sci-fi world (with Muse&#39;s Matt doing a fair Max Headroom impression. But that was positively Bergmanesque compared to this one.&nbsp;&nbsp;Drake pulls off a proper 80s-tastic shock-horror blockbuster for Muse&#39;s latest off-the-scale rock operetta Thought Contagion. From the arcade game, privileged teenager with the unfeasible sports car turns out to have a vampire for a girlfriend that leaves him on a one way ticket to videogame doom. But not before a big, lovely nod to Thriller - and the Rocky Horror Show. &nbsp;And this one ends with Matt showing up in an even better car, as the ultimate 80s dude. Or possibly werewolf...

Radical Friend revs up the heart-rate with this unhinged ultraviolet-lit clip for US punk/hiphop outfit Ho99o9 (pronounced&nbsp;Horror)&#39;s track&nbsp;Blood Waves. It sees bandmates&nbsp;theOGM and&nbsp;Eaddy&#39;s notoriously aggressive, in-your-face&nbsp;performance, in disjointed flashes of neon and raw energy. Not for the epileptic.Doubling up as a promo for&nbsp;the new Converse &#39;Chuck II&#39; shoe, the brand has&nbsp;also released an<a href="https://readyformoreho99o9.converse.com/" target="_blank"> interactive version</a>&nbsp;of the video&nbsp;that changes from shadow to neon depending on the lighting of your environment, which is&nbsp;detected through your webcam.

If you thought it was getting hard to do something strikingly new with choreography in music videos, think again. Robert Hales has delivered this stirring promo for Muse&#39;s new single Dead Inside, which centres on&nbsp;a mesmerising interaction in dance&nbsp;from Kathryn McCormick and&nbsp;William Wingfield.The&nbsp;choreography&nbsp;by Tessandra Chavez is brilliant, and the photography (by&nbsp;Todd Banhazl)&nbsp;and editing (by Bill Yukich)&nbsp;of the performance is exceptional. Meanwhile, Muse also perform, becoming an increasingly significant on-screen presence as the song develops. Excellent stuff.&nbsp;

After his superb videos last year for <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2014/09/08/clipping-inside-out-carlos-lopez-estrada" target="_blank">Inside Out</a>&nbsp;and <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2014/06/04/clipping-work-work-carlos-lopez-estrada" target="_blank">Work Work</a>, Carlos Lopez Estrada&#39;s video for&nbsp;Clipping&#39;s Summertime is arguably the best of the lot.&nbsp;Described&nbsp;simply as &#39;a film about identity,&#39; Estrada has&nbsp;superimposed cutouts of Clipping&#39;s&nbsp;lipsyncing face on unsuspecting pedestrians, beach-dwellers and fast food servers.&nbsp;Estrada interprets the track&#39;s theme about growing up in LA&nbsp;through this&nbsp;hilarious&nbsp;and captivating effect.Fine ladies&nbsp;in bikinis, sunny&nbsp;beaches,&nbsp;dealing with&nbsp;cops, riding around sunny LA and ordering loads of fast food...&nbsp;We&#39;re in Clipping&#39;s world now, and what more entertaining way to illustrate West-Coast&nbsp;culture could there be?&nbsp;
