Narratives engulfed in spectral animation; hauntingly beautiful in visualisation, painfully loved – executed in stunning awe. To end off October, we’ve curated a list of 15 music videos from 2018 that make one’s skin crawl; whether it be disturbing or strange imagery, the portrayal of heart-wrench narratives that gnaw between our ribcages to the core – or pure beauty in an embrace of eerie aesthetic.
