Arcade Fire "Suburbs" dir. Spike Jonze
it was the only video to break through any sort of wall this year... everything else tried and failed. this is the only relevant video to the times thats also technical and gorgeous.
martial law, coming to a suburb near you... all we need is a little social unrest and obama can make it happen with a swipe of his pen. spike needs to keep it up. first the kanye film now this, he's on a fucking roll of genius.
