I'm sure you read that headline and thought I was sarcastically posting some inane piece of shit for us to laugh at. Well I'm not. This is seriously one of the most jaw-dropping music videos ever made and it comes to us from a band not unknown to we internet denizens, OK Go. This thing is AMAZING. Enjoy.

That was... it's... that was just.. oh my God. If the exercise machine video almost killed them, this one must surely have driven the people involved insane. How do you even sit and come up with that stuff? The domino topple was cool enough, but the sledgehammer through the TV? The atlas rolling? The thing that sent that guy crashing through those boxes? I think Thriller has just lost the "best video of all time" award. Man, that was fucking AMAZING.

Seriously. I saw an interview on AOTS and he said it was like 4 months of work with an all-volunteer crew to get it right. This is probably a close second to Thriller in my mind. Love the song too. If I had iTunes right now, I'd have bought it already.

The only OK GO song I actually own is a CD single of (I think?) their first single, Get Over It. The video won't win any awards, but the song is ace. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BxfpbyV-uc |

Breaking news. OK Go has left their record label and is starting their own (like a REAL band) due to EMI's policy regardng the embedding of their videos. A band like OK Go thrives on online exposure so preventing embedding limits online "word of mouth" and hurts the band. Way to go, guys. Best of luck.
