We’ve already let you know that we love 120 Days’ latest single ‘Dahle Disco’ a-plenty over on sister site Ja Ja Ja, so we won’t waste your precious Friday time on talk. We just want to tell you that you need to see this new video, directed by Joakim Faxvaag, for said song – taken from the album 120 Days II which comes out March 5 via Norway’s best label at the moment (?), Splendour.

Watch: Loney Dear – Violent (Best Fit Session)
The perfect juxtaposition of lovelorn lyrics and melodic purity – Emil Svanängen strips his 2009 classic ‘Violent’ its bear bones – extending it to a lengthy 8 minutes, the complex chord progression swapped in favour of percussive guitar and gentle pipe organ accompaniment triggered by a mass of floor pedals.

Watch: Colours – Night Climb
Colours have revealed a new cut from their forthcoming 7″ in the video for ‘Night Climb’.

Watch: Frànçois and the Atlas Mountains – Slow Love (Best Fit Session)
Frànçois and the Atlas Mountains conjure up a gorgeous rendition of ‘Slow Love’, the opening track from their highly acclaimed new album, E Volo Love.

Watch: Kindness – Gee Up
The song is only 2 minutes long, the video runs for 4:52 – the difference is comedy gold.

Watch: St. Vincent – Cheerleader
Annie Clark has revealed the brand new video for ‘Strange Mercy’-highlight ‘Cheerleader’.

Watch: Niki & The Dove – The Fox
Although the band don’t feature, some impressive CGI effects transform a masked character into various guises alongside some super impressive scenery, space scenes, flying mathematical helmets…. Oh whatever. Just watch the bloody thing.

Watch: Blu x Madlib – Jesus▲
‘s No York tape was one of the best hip-hop releases of last year: odd, inventive, and full of unexpected lyrical twists. Jesus▲ had a slightly more lukewarm reception – but the title track, produced by , was fantastically entertaining. Watch the brand new video here.
Watch: Lianne La Havas – Forget (Best Fit Session)
Our encounter with the supremely talented singer-songwriter is also our most ambitious Best Fit Session to date – see her perform anthem-in-the-making ‘Forget’ amid the ruins of a South London asylum chapel.

Watch: Brontide – Coloured Tongues
must surely rank amongst the country’s most underrated bands. Watch the video above for their latest single, ‘Coloured Tongues’ – an indication, we hope, that their second album is on the way.

Watch: Neon Indian – Fallout
Neon Indian have revealed the Adult Swim-produced video for ‘Era Extraña’ featured number ‘Fallout’.

Watch: Miike Snow – Paddling Out
Swedish synth-pop trio Miike Snow have an uncanny ability to create songs that are a suitable soundtrack for just about anything. Since the release of their self-titled debut album back in 2009, expectations have been high for their up-and-coming album, Happy to You.

Watch: The Maccabees – Feel to Follow
‘Feel to Follow’ is taken from The Maccabees latest album, Given to the Wild, which sees the London five-some embrace a new sound that seems to have divided fans and music critics alike.

Watch: M.I.A – Bad Girls
We were promised a Romain Gavras directed video earlier this week and, well, here it is…

Watch: Virals – Magic Happens
You can check out the new video for ‘Magic Happens’ as well as downloading its double a-side counterpart ‘Comes The Night’.
