Video Flow, Vol. 11

Alright, I received a frankly insane number of links to new videos in my inbox this week, and as per usual, I've selected my twenty favourites to share with you here.


In this week's edition of Video Flow, there's the latest from Kate Bush, The Raveonettes, the Black Lips, Timber Timbre, Ladytron, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Common, Florence + the Machine, Feist, and lots, lots more.


There's performance clips from Neon Indian and Chairlift, some trippy conceptual stuff from the likes of DJ Shadow and The Rapture, and even a holiday favourite from Scott Weiland. Yes, you read that correctly.
