New year, new music videos! And good ones, too:

First up is what surely will be a contender for video of the year from those fun indie popsters Vampire Weekend. If you only watch one video today watch this one for ‘A-Punk’:

Next up is something decidedly more lo-fi from Damn Shames – I’m very interested to see what these guys to next, as it’s a very impressive debut:

Nick Cave is obviously a lot more established then the last two, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a great new video. Watch closely to see where he completely fluffs his lip syncing, and see if you can spot him almost fall over:
