Carl Addy directs a gorgeously vibrant and textural promo, combining performance with intriguing visual effects, for metal behomoths Bullet For My Valentine. Beneath a series of warped animated layers, the video for Rainbow Veins intermixes glitchy performances with character vignettes - beautifully shot by Thomas English and graded by Jax Harney - blending together in a nightmarish hallucination. The distorted VFX heighten the surreal aesthetic, whilst contrasting colour palettes lend an otherworldly style to the concept.

Finnish rapper Dilemma breaks the mould in Heini Susanne's effervescent promo for Kova. Celebrating culture, togetherness and a refreshing sense of vulnerability, the video - which also features the rap duo SOFA - shines a light on a variety of different personalities, assembling across a number of glossy performance vignettes. Eye-catchingly vivid and absorbing, the video cuts between pastel-washed setups in an industrial location, and a rather abstract black and white concept in the forest. One thing's for sure, Dilemma is here to shake up the status quo, and Heini Susanne is the perfect visual partner to help him do so.

Jake Jelicich makes his welcome return to music videos to direct a high-octane performance promo for Nothing But Thieves. Within a brutalist building, the band deliver a show of controlled intensity of their song Futureproof, while a single figure infiltrates the gargantuan structure - both band and intruder captured through frenetic camera angles and remarkable high-speed camera moves within the space. Saturated orange lights add an edgy, surreal tinge to the concept, and help to create a nightmarish, thrilling vibe throughout.

Cal Bain directs a delicately handcrafted promo for Lycoriscoris' Shizumu (沈む). Translated to mean, 'to sink', we see a handdrawn character on-screen, who falls perpetually through a network of dazzling environments.Utilising mesmerising colour schemes - which transition and blend into each other seamlessly as the character falls - the video is a pure delight to watch, and a throwback to more analogue techniques. The original character modeling and pre-viz reference stills were created in Blender 3D. Each frame was then hand-drawn using Procreate on an iPad. The video also features stop-frame animation using personal photographs taken by Lycoriscoris, in the Japanese countryside near his hometown, close to Okayama.
