The Avett Brothers – “No Hard Feelings”

The Avett Brothers are an American folk rock band from Concord, North Carolina. The group is made up of two brothers, Scott Avett and Seth Avett, who both sing and play guitar, piano, and other instruments. The band also includes Bob Crawford on upright bass and Joe Kwon on cello.

The group has released nine studio albums, four live albums, and three EPs. Their most recent album, True Sadness, was released in 2016. The album reached number three on the Billboard 200 chart.

“No Hard Feelings” is a song off of True Sadness. The music video for the song was released in 2016 and was directed by Mike Mills.

The video features the band performing the song in a black-and-white setting. It also intercuts footage of people going about their everyday lives. The video ends with a montage of people of all ages and walks of life hugging one another.

The National – “The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness”

The National’s “The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness” is a beautifully shot and directed music video that tells the story of a relationship on the brink of collapse. The video features stunning visuals and an impressive camera work that follows the two main characters as they move through different settings while their relationship slowly falls apart. The video ends with a powerful image of the two characters standing in front of a burning house, which symbolizes the end of their relationship.

Arcade Fire – “Everything Now”

Arcade Fire are no strangers to making great music videos. In the past, they’ve made videos for their songs “The Suburbs” and “We Used to Wait” that were both nominated for MTV Video Music Awards. For their latest single, “Everything Now,” they’ve outdone themselves yet again.

The video, directed by Jonas & Francois, is a parody of infomercials and product placement. It features the band members as hosts of a fake TV show called “Everything Now,” where they shill various phony products. The products include a phone case that doubles as a fidget spinner, a perfume called “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” and a pair of jeans that come with a free avocado (the latter is a subtle jab at Topshop, who recently started selling avocado-printed items).

In addition to being hilariously satirical, the video is also visually stunning. The sets and costumes are all very colorful and over-the-top, which fits perfectly with the tone of the song.

If you’re looking for a good laugh, or just want to see some great visuals, definitely check out Arcade Fire’s new video for “Everything Now.”
