Music videos have always played a huge role in rock music- they add an element of intensity to a track, bringing a bite and edge to it. Many focus around black and white filters, other on the atmospheres of live shows, and others on soft indie aesthetics. I’ve listed my top 50, most being from the last couple of decades. I’ve tried to focus on modern indie rock and grunge, most being from the last few years. The tracks themselves are amazing, so make sure to check out the Spotify playlist at the end too. Enjoy!
