A reader submitted this video, and I’m actually surprised it hasn’t been posted before. The song is Bat For Lashes’ “What’s A Girl To Do”, and the Dougal Wilson-directed video is, well, creepy. It’s (impressively) one continuous shot of Natasha Khan riding a bike down a dark road, past lost trick-or-treaters and a car crash, joined by guys on BMXs with oversized animal heads, doing tricks in time to the music.

The video is equal parts absurd and eerie, and well worth watching. A higher quality version is available at Pitchfork.tv.
