Watch: Franz Ferdinand Reveal Creepy Music Video For "Evil Eye"

Scottish indie-rock band Franz Ferdinand have revealed the video for their new single "Evil Eye", taken from their recently released fourth studio album 'Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action', out via Domino Records.

The song is part of our current playlist, and is the third track from the new album to get the video treatment, they have already shared the clips for "Right Action" and "Love Illumination". 

The video for Evil Eye is very much inspired by the 'horror theme' of the song title. It was directed by acclaimed U.S. film-maker Diane Martel, who said: "This is a creepy nasty video for my dear friends and my favourite band. I'm proud to be part of this brilliant album's visuals!".

Alex Kapranos words: “The video is a gruesome blood orgy eye stab death romp wide-oh creep necro fest, play this on the telly if you dare you fuckers.”

Watch: Chevalier Avant Garde Release "Rose Rider" Music Video

Montreal-based minimal/post punk duo Chevalier Avant Garde have released the video for "Rose Rider", the new track taken from their upcoming LP 'Resurrection Machine', which is set to be released on September 10th on Fixture Records.

The clip was directed by director and visualizer Rob Feulner, who embraced the band’s skin-deep vision by deciding to almost completely ignore the link between the song and the visuals. Rob grabbed a couple VHS copies of Jean Rollin's 1973 art film The Iron Rose- because he thought it had the word "rose" in it and it looked great, then he manipulated and yanked on the tapes to achieve the video's trippy you’re-dad’s-worn-out VHS copy of old porn look. Rob wanted to toy with the idea of being trapped between life and death, while Dimitri just wanted a rose, a desert and a naked chick walking around (noisey).

Watch: Holograms Unveil Music Video For "Meditations"

Swedish post-punk quartet Holograms have unveiled the video for their latest single "Meditations", taken from their sophomore album 'Forever', out now via Captured Tracks.  

The vintage film treatment shows cloaked figures wandering through a cemetery and along jagged cliffs, edited with shots of an anonymous dark liquid dispersing in water. 

It was directed by the Australian photographer/filmmaker Emanuella Zachariou, who explains: "It's a Yin Yang story, but the darkness takes over." 

Check out the video below.
