  • It's such a great day for new videos! Let's kick things off with a new clip from KEXP faves Tame Impala. In the video for the single "Let It Happen", a business man goes on a very bad trip. Whoa. Let it happen, indeed. The anxiety-inducing short0film was directed by David Wilson, and the track itself is off the band's latest full-length, Currents, out now on Interscope. [Spin]

  • Things aren't so great for cyborgs either. In this clip for The Chemical Brothers single "Sometimes I Feel So Deserted," a mutilated, mechanical maiden is chased down by a cargo van. The video, directed by Ninian Doff, definitely captures the sense of feeling "deserted" in this dystopian wasteland. Watch: [Stereogum]

  • Scottish trio CHVRCHES share a new video today for the single "Leave A Trace," a sneak peek at their forthcoming full-length, Every Open Eye, out September 25th via Glassnote Records. The moody video spotlights frontwoman Lauren Mayberry performing in a range of weather conditions. You can catch the band Wednesday, October 14th at The Paramount here in Seattle. [Under the Radar]

  • And finally, a clip from supergroup The Dead Weather, a side project for The Kills' Alison Mosshart, Jack White, Dean Fertita, and Jack Lawrence. As we announced last month, they'll release their third album, Dodge & Burn, on September 25th via White’s Third Man Records. Today, they share a teaser for the track "I Feel Love (Every Million Miles)," which can be watched in its entirety via Tidal, or just check out a snippet below. [Pitchfork]
