Music Videos That Suck

Way to go, dumbass.

Well duh, tell us something we don’t know.

Holy fucking shit. I only just discovered this video today, so I am still a little stunned. I can’t talk too much shit about this video because this guy plays better than I do with my two healthy hands…but WOW.

As a proud card-carrying member of the Headbanger Nation, I always felt like I should like Metalocalypse more than I do. But the few episodes I saw paled in comparison to the Venture Brothers. However, after seeing this clip, I may have to revise my opinion.

I meant to post this video Halloween weekend but it sort of got supplanted by other stuff. No matter - Here it is now.

This must be the coolest music video to ever come out of Sweden. It pays homage to all the zombie movies of the 80’s but still manages to remain original. The song is pretty awesome, too. I love those old-school synthesizers.

I’m not gonna say too much more, because the video stands on its own. I could’ve done without the silly CGI zombie dog at the end. I can only assume a marketing guy demanded it, or they figured they had extra money in the budget so they may as well use it.

Naked Ape also has another cool video with a zombie stripper, but I prefer this one.

Don’t ask.

I totally went to college with these guys.

Butthead: Woah. Huh huh. Check this out.
Beavis: Heh heh hm. What’s this crap? It sucks!
Butthead: Uh…it’s Battlestar Gala….gala..uh…Gallagher!
Beavis: Heh heh heh. He’s gonna smash a watermelon.
Butthead: Huh huh huh! That would be cool.
Beavis (screeching): It is Sledge-O-Matic! You want that cheeseburger to go? YAAAAAH!
Butthead: Woah! Settle down, Beavis.
Beavis: Heh heh hm heh. If I had a Sledge-O-Matic, I’d smash this video. That would be cool.
Butthead: Yeah. Huh huh.
…
Butthead: “In space, no one can hear you suck.” Huh huh.

…now this one’s better than the Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor videos combined. James Brown isn’t a comedian, but you wouldn’t know it from watching this classic interview. This is some uncomfortable Andy Kaufman shit right here. James Brown is clearly blasted out of his mind on God knows what, and appears to be responding to someone other than his interviewer.

…and while we’re on the subject of black comedians losing their shit, here’s a classic video of Richard Pryor coked out of his gourd, talking a ton of shit. The best part may be the white guy unsuccessfully trying to interview him. He’s trying to roll with it, but is clearly uncomfortable and has no idea how to corral Pryor’s attention. I feel sorry for the poor guy, there’s probably nothing on earth that could have corralled Pryor’s attention at that point…except for another line.
