Can't wait for DML's breakdown of this one, where he lets the anthropomorphism of the Strict Machine video get to him, and admits it gave him a hardon.

Sledgehammer is obviously one of the best videos ever.

Struggling a bit here so I think it will have to be Goldfrapp and Bjork quite simply because in both instances I would.

It's all about Pendulum in this round. Quality song and video. Love the part in the middle, the priest pours either drugs or poison in the holy water when the song breaks into pads/strings. So you know something's wrong there.

Not the best group music wise. Sledgehammer's cool though.

Easiest group yet.

I nominated Sledgehammer, its quite obviously one of the best videos ever made, I'll leave a more strict critique to a later round, but it'll walk this.

I also nominated Goldfrapp, and the reason I nominated is because its such an amazing fusion of electronica and video. Goldfrapp does do awesome videos, and I saw this amazing video lose out to the worst video ever in one of animations biggest award ceremonies, and I don;t want to see it happen again here. It needs votes! Plus, yes Martin-Gil - dancing huskies give me a hard-on.

Then, thirdly, Chris Cunningham's Bjork video has to go through. So beautiful, and I nearly nominated it myself.

Zappa, I don't get, Benny Benassi gives me less of a hard on than the huskies ( ;) ) and Bob Marley doing a Kia-ora advert don't really grab me - all poor videos not really good for this contest.

So that leaves Radiohead and Pendulum. Both videos are alright in my book, but ultamitely I give the nod to Radiohead, because I think its a better made, more iconic video. Pendulum's is good, but if it struggles in this group, it'd struggle in most.

My verdict - GOLDFRAPP NEEDS VOTES!

I agree with you. I like to assume that it's poison, and the dark ghosty-thingy's are the people that just died.
