Grimes had one of the best music videos of 2015 with “Flesh Without Blood,” and she’s already poised to make the list again this year with her bonkers new clip for “Kill v. Maim.” Grimes once described the frantic electro-pop stomper song as “written from the perspective of Al Pacino in The Godfather Pt II…except he’s a vampire who can switch gender and travel through space,” and now she’s directed (along with her brother, Mac Boucher) a colorful video that definitely lives up to ridiculousness of that description, if not topping it. Bloody raves, dystopian subway dance parties, futuristic car travel—this one’s going to be hard to beat.
